Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho, A Camping We Will Go...


For the Memorial Day weekend we decided to join 3 other families in the ward for a campout at Linville Falls in the Blue Ridge Parkway. Aside from the 18 children (10 under the age of six) and the rain storm from 3am to 6am, we had a great time! It was our first camping trip as a family since moving to North Carolina, and the Blue Ridge Parkway provided a beautiful backdrop for the occasion.

After "sleeping" through the rain, we hiked down to Linville Falls. It was about 1.5 miles of rugged terrain, but the view was worth the hike. Having all this scenery so close is why we love living in North Carolina! Below are some snap shots from the adventure.
