This is the amazing Stone Mountain. There is no denying that God put it there. This is only certain kinds of trees that can live on the mountain because it is made out of granite. The kids were bummed because they could not swim in the lake, it was contaminated by the fertilizer from the golf course. It was so beautiful there and we had such a great time.

This was our campsite.......but also check out my new car. We bought it 2 weeks before this trip. It is a 2008 Yukon Denali, fully loaded, black on black. I love it!!!!! This was our view from our camper.

At stone mountain everything there revolves around this picture on the mountain. It was done long before we had all the upgraded technology. It is really interesting. You should get on the internet and research it. It is amazing what those men have done years and years ago. When you go to watch the laser and firework show it is done here. You sit on this lawn. It was amazing.

In the museum, this is a copy of the actual size of one of the head on the sculpture. The boys are so tiny compared to it.

On top of Stone Mountain.

We didn't hike up the mountain we just rode this tram.He went camping with 2 other families from church.

My handsome boys....see they do love eachother. hahaha.

Nathaniel played for the A's. He was #22. His positions were left field and 3rd base.

Damon was #22 played for the Astros. His positions were right field, short stop, and 2nd base.

We had reservations before got the baby at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Campground during our Spring Break. It also worked out that we were actually there during Easter so we decided to continue to go. My brother Jason also went with his camper. We had a really good time.

We had my cousins daughter, Raynee (3 weeks old) for a month in a half till she could get her life together. Her first camping trip. We made her bed out of a laundry hamper and she slept all night. Needless to say she didn't sleep like that a home. hahaha. We truely miss her terribly.

Jason loves our dog Toby.

Some friends the boys made there. Them getting ready for the Night time Easter Egg Hunt.

The Easter Bunny came to the campground this year.

Nathaniel was so ready for his birthday party. Nathaniel is born exactly a week before Christmas so this year we decided to wait and have is party is January. Working around Christmas parties and everyone's plans made it extremely difficult this year. Plus, Nathaniel wanted his Uncle Jason there and around his birthday Jason was in China for business. So when we had his party yesterday (January 12th) he thought is was turning 9 instead of 8. He was so confused with prolonging is party for a month. We had a good time. Pigeon Forge just opened up a new Skating Rink called Spin City. It is a really nice place I am glad we got something new to do now. Nathaniel wanted a camouflage party with military tanks and stuff. It turned out really cute.

This picture of Dad was taken before he fell with skates on. He ended up really hurting himself and when he fell he popped a blood vessel in his wrist and made is hand swell twice it's size. We were really worried about him because its not like him to show any pain but with this he did. I also fell due to my skates locking up. So lots of people were teasing everyone. I think the only one that didn't fall was Mom. :)

Mom trying on Jason's rollerblades.

Nathaniel and his buddy Isaac from his old school. They were so excited to see eachother again.

Poor Nathaniel I think his was on his bottom most of the time.

Damon is pretty good he only fell a couple of times.

Damon is playing for a Christian based basketball program called Upward. It teaches the kids the fundamentals of the game. Each boy plays the same amount of time. Damon is loving it so far. It is a really good program because Damon has never played basketball before and he is learning all kinds of stuff. He really wanted to make his school team but all the teachers kids got it instead....(NOT FAIR). He is hoping to try out again next year and hopefully will make the team that time. Upward plays every Saturday for 2 months. They have had 2 games so far and they have been creamed both times. But they are having fun and thats all that counts. :)

Christmas 2007

We had a wonderful Christmas...of course the kids got so much they don't know what to do with everything...but I guess it wouldn't be Christmas otherwise. My family always get together on Christmas Eve and open our presants from eachother at our house then on Christmas Day we go to my Mom's for Christmas dinner. Then around 4:00 we leave Mom's and go to Jason's aunt's house and open more presants there. It is just a very hectic time of year but we love it and of course the boys love opening up presants several times. :)
