September Birthdays

The end of September is filled with birthday's to celebrate!  Aunt Amber's came first, the Paps's (Tony) and the Papaw (Jim).  All in the same week.  We went to dinner to celebrate with Papaw Jim at his favorite restaurant, Log Inn.  We had a great time and the boys loved the fried chicken and rolls!

Since Tony turned the big 7-0, we spent the whole weekend celebrating with him on a big family camping trip up at the farm.  We went up on Saturday and fished with Paps, Grandma, Aunt Carrie, and Uncle Brandon.  Great Uncle Chuck came and joined us too!  Both Fisher families came to celebrate as well.  The kids loved spending time with Paps and Grandma and I think the feeling is mutual :)

We did some hiking, four wheeler riding, more fishing, fish frying, smore making, and enjoyed some stories by the fire. We caught enough fish to feed the whole clan! It was a wonderful day on Saturday.  The boys slept overnight in a tent with Daddy for the first time.  It got down to 48 degrees, so I expected them to get cold and come into the camper with me, but they made all night long.  On Sunday, the kids got to experience their first old farmhouse breakfast.  Andy and Sean cooked biscuits, eggs, sausage, and bacon on the wood fired stove and kids ate it all up.

We did some more hiking and riding on Sunday before we headed home.  The boys got to use their new four-wheeler helmets and we got to play in a little mud.  What a great way to celebrate with a great man doing all of his favorite things, with some of his favorite people, at one of his favorite places!
