We just got home from camping at Mammoth Cave this weekend. We had a wonderful time. The boys LOVED camping. We went with our friend Jim and Missy and their son Carter. They have a nice camper that we all stayed in. The boys liked it so much they were begging us to buy one when we got home. The weather wasn't so great. It poured down rain Thursday and Friday but warmed up and the sun came out on Saturday. We took a tour of Mammoth Cave on Friday. The boys thought it "cool". I have seen everything on this tour before but continue to be amazed by it. On Saturday we took a boat tour of a cave with a river running through it. We actually got on a boat and took a short boat ride into the cave. It was not as cool as Mammoth cave but it was neet. Before the boat ride we took little hike near the cave and saw what they called "blue holes". This is where the underwater river comes the the surface. Evidently the water was suppose to be a pretty shade of blue but due to all of the rain it was a beautiful shade of mud.
Colby was not very cooperative this weekend with the pictures. Whenever I wanted him to get it a picture he refused. So we would have to trick him into getting his picture taken. It was hard getting pictures in the cave. When you looked through the camera all you could see was black so you had to wait for the flash. You never knew what kind of picture you would get.
Then to finish off the weekend many cars got broken into on Saturday night. Well of course we did not have our car locked so we got our sunglasses stolen, my and Jackson's wallet, our portable dvd player. Jackson was so upset. He of course had more money than me. He recieved a $50 bill for his birthday and had been saving it since may for a game. He kept asking me why someone would do that. I tried to explain to him that it was just money and objects and there is many more important things and we were grateful that noone was hurt but I don't think he felt better.
We had a wonderfull weekend spending it with friends. Back to work tomorrow.

Wonderful way to spend a holiday weekend. Sorry about the theft of your valuables. Just glad no one was hurt. I do love the idea of families doing things together. It is a rare and beautiful thing!
