Just the two of us!


We had the greatest weekend ever! We borrowed Courtney and Jeremy's pop-up camper, Grandma Tonda watched the kids, and Dan and I headed up to the Pigeon River State Forest. For all of you who don't know where that is....its called "no-mans land". This is real camping, not this 32 ft. double slide, flat screen TV, and microwave stuff we ussually do. This is the kind of camping Dan grew up doing. With that said we realized one thing this weekend, we miss our pop-up and all the fun we have cooking on the fire, gathering wood, and being in the fresh air.
We had so much fun just being husband and wife...not mom and dad too. We kayaked the river, road our bikes and just enjoyed being in the woods.



There is NOTHING like a good steak on an open fire...anything tastes better over the fire!

We can't forget to say...that on way home the tire exploded. Thank goodness Court and Jer had a spare and my husband is Mr. Fix it. In less than 15 minutes we were on the road again!

To make our weekend get-away work we had a ton of help!
Thank you, Brown's for the camper.
Thank you, Grandma Tonda for watching the kids all weekend.
Thank you, Niki for watching my children while Grandma had school on Saturday afternoon.
We love you all!

It looks like you had a great time! I'm glad you were able to get away together. I love Angie's comment about the monitor!!! That is still one of the funniest stories I've heard.
