We went camping for our second time with Brieleigh mid-May. We went with Jane and Andrew Edson again to Lake Ray Roberts State Park close to here. It stormed badly Friday night so we postponed our trip to Saturday and just stayed one night. The weather ended up being perfect- not too hot and cool at night. Brieleigh had a great time as usual. She is so laid back and easy going (which the doctor says she gets from her parents- I never thought of myself as laid back, but I guess we are both pretty even keel). We took a few hour hike where Brieleigh rode in our hiking carrier for her first trip (we got it almost new at a garage sale for only $20!). She loved her view inside there. David said he forgot how much he liked fishing so fished with every lure and worm he had, and even an innocent little grasshopper, but we caught nothing. We cooked pork carnitas and smores on the fire and told stories. That night the racoons discovered how to open our latched tupperware box and ate our food :( . I don't like racoons, and I was not too happy about them eating my food. (All those pennies I try to save with my coupons, and they blew it!)
The park was pretty empty, and we loved just being in God's creation. The hiking trail reminded me of hiking in the woods in Mississippi with Miss Aunt Donna!
Brieleigh discovered dirt! We found her sitting there chewing on a muddy stick. (Oh well, I read a study that kids who eat dirt develop less allergies!)
Taking a break from hiking in the pack to feel the cool water on her feet.
More fun pictures from May....
Rolling over to the shelf to see what mischief she can find
