Birthday and camping

August 18th, 2009

During our many travels this summer we did have a birthday. But I am afraid i failed to take any photos.  I am not sure how that happened because I know I had the camera out taking pictures.

Little bit here did have her second birthday. Everyone came and had a good time. Although I did not have time to bake a cake, she did enjoy a store bought one and some ice cream. She even got a few presents from everyone.

she is getting ready for a boat ride with Grandpa Jimmy. She really likes boats!

Aunt Carol let us borrow her pop up camper for a few days while we were in Chattanooga. Although it did rain while we were there, we had fun any way.

This is lake off the Tennessee river and the camp ground was at Chester Frost Park just north of Chattanooga.

There were so many interesting things to get into and find there. Things that are just not found in West Texas. Like Snails!

The view from my chair was peaceful and relaxing.

I did have one funny moment. It was a short walk up a hill to the bathroom. I needed to use the rest room. I walked up the hill with Carley and Hayden (because I can’t leave those two alone).  We finished up and then headed back down. No sooner than I sit down in my chair, Hayden says “I got to go to the bathroom!”

“But we were just up there, I asked you several times if you needed to go. Why did you not go while we were just up there?” Stupid questions on my part because a 4 year old does not have the answers to those questions.

So I sat in my chair and asked Landon to walk him up to the restroom. He had to go anyway also.

Off they go up the hill. I can see the restroom clearly from where I am sitting.  I watch them go in. Several minutes go by.

Several more minutes go by.

I see landon come out & start coming back down the hill.

“Where is your brother?”

“I don’t know”

“You were suppose to walk him back from the bathroom also”

“Oh”

About that time I see Hayden coming out of the Bathroom completely in the BUFF! He comes out right in front of this red truck with some people sitting inside of it waiting for someone to come out of the shower. He is shaking his behind, sort of doing a little naked dance.

I grab Carley and head back up the hill.  His little dance continues until I get close to the bathroom. As I walk past the truck, everyone in the truck is just dying laughing. All I could think of to says was “I am not sure when they learn the meaning of the word modesty.”
