On Monday Mark took the boys for a real overnight hiking adventure. They all had backpacks with sleeping bags etc. and then went to somewhere on the Buffalo River. They hiked in and set up camp. Everything was great until the rain at 1am. Chad was the first to wake up to discover he was sleeping in a pool of water. They had a great waterproof tent but the problem was the ground cover that they put down acted like their own little swimming pool. Their bags were soaked and they slept the remainder of the night without their bags. That morning they got up and toughed it out. They did more hiking (in mud) and found some beautiful waterfalls.
They all had a time of their life despite the rain.
We spent Thanksgiving day at Nana and Grandad's house. We had a ton of pies and 2 turkeys. Mark fried one of the turkeys. Yum. Adrianne and her family also were there.
These are some pictures of Hadley and Nana cooking together. Hadley is a great helper.
We also had our annual post Thanksgiving meal Bingo game. Grandad calls out the numbers and then when you get Bingo you get a prize.
Friday Mark took Braden and Austin to play paintball with a bunch of other people from church. I gladly stayed home with Hadley and Chad. It was fun to hear all of the battle stories when they got back. Braden had a few pretty good bruises that he was proud to show off.
