Camping and Boating with Friends

A few weekends ago we were able to get together with a bunch of friends from High School and go camping! We camped at Downatta Hot Springs and boated at Twin Lakes. It was such a good time and the weather was perfect!

This snake was crossing our path on the way to the bathroom. ICK!

All the gang! A good friend, Darren, was in an accident right after graduation. He was my date to Senior Prom. He is now paralyzed, but it doesnt stop him from coming out and having fun! The guys loaded him in the boat and he was a trooper the whole camping trip! Glad you could come Woody!

My husband has turned me somewhat into a water rat! And although Im not a good swimmer and I am 5 months pregnant, I just HAD to get in the water and go for a ride. I figured tubing would be less dangerous than wakeboarding (even though i was dying to strap a board on!) and so YES, i did go for a few tube rides and I was very safe! Here's a few pics.

Chad wakeboared, but I was driving the boat for the first time pulling him so i didnt get any pictures. Darn. Everyone was impressed with how good he is!

Here's our campsite.

Me and my best bud, Aub. It was SO great to take a mini vacay with you! And the best part was that my parents kept Carter for the weekend so we could have some nice quality adult time! Wish it would have been longer, but all in all it was a wonderful trip!
