CAMPOUT!

This weekend a group of us from church headed to Chewacla State Park for a camp out. It's been in the works for a few months and everything went as planned. We feasted on hot dogs, s'mores, zebra cakes & chips. Our entertainment consisted of watching the dogs. They were all hilarious. Emmy (Murray's dog) rules the roost. After a late night of chatting around the fire we headed off to a good nights rest.

Justin cooked a fabulous breakfast in the morning, after Ashley called us on her cell phone from 3 tents over, requesting coffee :) We had bacon, sausage, toast, scrambled eggs and espresso. It was so good. Breakfast is my favorite, but it's even better while camping! We received notice of the coming storm (about an hour), so we decided to pack up and head for the falls. We made it down to the falls, but it was getting darker and darker. The guys decided to scale the falls. As soon as they made it to the top, it began to thunder and turn really dark. They high-tailed it down and the girls took off for the car. It was a pretty steep incline, but we made great time. By the time we got to the car it began to rain. It was perfect timing.

We had a great time, I just wish it could have been longer. Thanks to everyone that came!

I know that was a fun (short) time together. It is very funny to me to think of calling tent-to-tent to order coffee. I wish the weather had held out longer, but I was thinking of you guys when it passed through Wetumpka--quite a storm.
