Camping

Hello friends! I hope you are having a great week so far. We had a wonderful weekend camping and I have several pictures to share. The weather was perfect on Saturday, so we had a packed day. We started the morning by fishing in the lake. Hannah caught 3 fish and I caught 1, so we were pretty pleased with ourselves. They were small rock bass, so we threw them back, but it was still fun to catch them.

After lunch we rented a pattle boat for an hour. I was very nervous since Scott and I would have to pettle, but I did great and didn't get tired or anything! Hannah took a swim in the lake at the beach there, while Scott and I relaxed under the shade of a tree.

Scott and I weren't able to bring our bikes, but Hannah brought hers, so she enjoyed riding around the campground. There was a beautiful stream by our site and Hannah enjoyed rock hopping there.

We had two wonderful campfires and ate our share of marshmallows and s'mores. The sites on either side of us were empty, so it was very peaceful and quiet in our wooded spot. Having tent camped a lot as a child, this is like staying at a 4 star hotel. We love our camper! There is nothing quite like having your own bathroom to go to in the middle of the night.

This weekend was so amazing for me. I felt normal and healthy. I didn't have to pass up any activities and I wasn't worn out the whole time. It is so amazing to me to feel like this. I honestly can't remember feeling like this, it has been so long. I praised God all weekend for the miracle of life and breath and happiness. I don't know how long this will last, but I am going to enjoy every minute of it! All my love! Nancy
