Our oldest has gone camping once before but it happened to be with me while my husband was deployed last year. Now she can officially say she has gone camping with both parents. In a couple of weekends we will be able to go together as a whole family...finally. This chick ate 3 hot dogs, bun included, some yoohoos, and 2 smores. Hungry little pig ate more than her daddy! They had a blast around the campfire, played with friends and came home wreaking of smoke. Hooray for the daddy-daughter campout!

This past weekend we made a short visit to North Carolina for a Harnett Central High School Reunion! So, as with any special occasion we got all fancied up. Look! I got my hair did! Somehow I managed to paint my toenails and shave my legs in the same day! I'm sure there are some busy moms out there who know how that goes!

 Okay, so the North Carolina Zoo is seriously the coolest zoo we have ever been to. One, you get to get up close to so many of the animals. Two, the animals have SO MUCH SPACE to roam. Three, they have an interactive dinosaur park that totally ate my husband. Enough said. It was awesome!

The kids had a blast! Savannah brought along her favorite little stuffed animal giraffe, "Molly" and she got to meet her Mommy and Daddy giraffe! Abigail loved EVERYTHING and wasn't even afraid of the mean ones! Yes, that includes the T-Rex!
