a lazy day

So our big letterboxing party was a Harry Potter theme. It was a blast. We drove to Jefferson City and then set off to find as many boxes as we could before our children melted. Andy was a real trooper as you can see from his hike. We think we should recarve his signature stamp to be a mule carrying the B's. The boxes were fun, the food great, the people were exciting and so fun to be around. This is our third MO letterboxing event and we are getting to know people and feel more comfortable around them. Of course hiking in this beautiful part of the country is fabulous as well.

After the hiking and hunting and boxing part was over, we ate dinner and then went on the best hayride. It took us all over the back woods (full of wild turkeys, deer and few other things) where we eventually roasted marshmellows and made smores. We set up camp and started our freezing cold night. We nnight boxed for the death eaters and that was a fun first for us. Then off to bed. We lasted until about 11 PM. Yep, not even to the next day. we stealthily packed up in the back of the van and took off. Arriving home about 1:30 AM. Just in time to feed the baby, sleep and head off to church. What a great fun filled weekend for us.

looks like loads of fun...we tried to letterbox with our achievement day girls and struck out...Either we are really lame or the people out here in TN don't maintain their stuff....probably the latter because you know I am not lame!
