so, a great Memorial Day weekend. We had so much fun that Beans is still recouping from it. Since the trip she has slept great and taken 3 naps per day! So, the recap!
Friday we made our way to the Red River Gorge area in KY. A beautiful drive but one with many turns (for those that know me, me and turns do not get along!) so by the time we got there I was a little peakish:) We set up shop as it started raining.... the tent held well to the rain and it was kinda nice to hear the raindrops all night. We stay at Lago Linda's Hideaway so it is a private camping place where you can car tent wherever you want. They also have pavilions right there with picnic tables, grills, etc. And a big plus, the bathrooms were amazing!
So Saturday we set off to climb. Brad did really well and actually jumped ahead and tried to do a really hard route. He made it a little way up (it was an 80 foot climb) and did really well. It works your forearms so much he couldn't even snap for some time after it.
Beans did so good! She loved camping! There were alot of dogs there and one looked like Kaiser so she had fast friends. All the dogs loved her because they could lick her and she didn't care. We took a mini tent out while climbing so she chilled in that for a little bit and played. A lab puppy named Bella came with us and kept Beans entertained alot...they loved each other! Then for awhile she sat on a blanket and played and played in the dirt around it. I figured a little dirt never hurt:) You should have seen her, dirt everywhere! Amber, you would have died at her finger nails (we had to have a detailed cleaning for those things to get them back to normal!) Here she is in her tent...
We came back Sunday evening because we had a cook out to go to. Then on Monday we went in search of rocks for the front yard. Found some great ones and are working on getting them in....we'll post pics of the process soon.
Have many more pics of the weekend and will post more soon:)

i'm so glad you had fun and that lena beans is a camper. also glad brad went climbing...thought he would love it:) we so need to go camping at this place!!
Send that child over for a good scrubbing!!! I'm sure she had a blast and I am trying to do better about the whole dirt thing. However, it does still irritate me to see a child with long, dirty nails. That has never been Beans problem though! You are a wonderful mom and while I don't know if I could be as laid back about some things as you are, I am trying really hard to catch up with you on being laid back on some other things. Give Beans our love and we hope to see you soon.
