John Knox Center

Beautiful Sunset!!! God's work.
The boys enjoying the ride. They like the gravel and to listen to themselves bounce around.

Little Miss Attitude!!

Last Friday we took a spontaneous trip to Camp John Knox (John Knox Center) in Ten Mile, TN. Most everyone knows that is where Ben and I met as camp counselors. We had been missing it so much and hadn't been down in a long time- too long. So we packed up and went down to camp as a surprise visit. We got down there and surprised Barbara and then Rachel (EE Director). We had so much fun. We visited the nature center and the boys liked Monty (the ball python). Unfortunately we did not have enough time or hands to get the animals out like we wanted to, but it was still great to see the animals. Abby did get to hold the new opossum, but we didn't get a picture. We had to stay in Abel Lodge for several hours waiting for the storms to pass. We then went out to eat with Rachel and some other staff to the newer restaurant of Kingston- RedBones. It was fun. We had a long wait which is always nerve racking with babies; however, we decided to eat out on the patio. They had live music (a guy on a guitar) which was really great. The boys did awesome and Abby sat at the other end of the table and ordered like a big girl. She decided on cherry coke, pasta, cole slaw and an ice cream sundae. I guess that is what we get for not sitting by her. She had a blast!!! Can't wait to go back.
