Let's Get It Started!

Summer has begun, whether the calendar says June 20th or not!
We kicked off the 2012 camping season this past weekend with our camping crew at Port Huron KOA in Port Huron, MI. Despite rain and chilly temps, we had a great time. Our family decided to extend our stay and spent Monday enjoying the campground...basically to ourselves! We are looking forward to a busy camping summer! Afterall, the payment doesn't just happen May - October....so we'll make the most of it while we can.

Road Trip!

Last week we took a road trip to sweet home Alabama to visit family and friends. My grandmother's 90th surprise party took us there, but Mother's Day luckily fell within our visit too! We spent a lot of time in the car - traveling to and from my Nannie's nursing home to visit with her. The other time was spent with family and friends enjoying the things and places I love about my hometown - southern BBQ, fried catfish, boutiques "to die for", warm sunshine and of course, the Coosa River!

Remi loved seeing her cousins - Chandler, Savannah, Anna Grace & Luke. She fished for the first time with her daddy and Uncle Scott....and handled the release of the fish back into the Hill pond. What fun!

Here are some pics of our road trip! Hoping we don't have to wait 11 months again to visit!!
