Camping Trip

What a fun weekend we had! We went to Cave Run Lake where we have been camping for the last 8 years. This year we went with Pappy & Grammy and Rob & Deanna, Kiana, Duston, and Sean. We were debating if we were going because at my Dr. appointment last week I found out I am 80% effaced and 1 centimeter dilated, but we risked it (in spite of some opposition) and had a great time! For pics of Carl's first Musky in our new boat check out Caleb's Blog.

One happy camper and one not so happy!

So much Fun! Thanks for coming & allowing us to join you. ;-) What setting was your camera on to get the picture of the kids collecting stones?

Your pictures are great! We had a fun time. We love going camping!
I hated to leave! Glad you figured out the slamwich game you will have to teach it to me:)
Love,
Grammy

LOOKS LIKE Y'ALL HAD A BLAST! We miss camping. For several years the Pilmores, Shirks, my sister Laura and family, and us met in the Smoky Mountains and went camping for 4th of July...SUCH FUN MEMORIES!!
LOVED ALL THE PICS! Thought that your hair looked cute in 2 braids...I think that's how I remember seeing you when you were small...but maybe I'm wrong. Glad that Carl didn't have to deliver your baby there in a tent =)...it won't be long...how exciting!

Love y'all,
Heather =)

You win the best Mommy award! Glad you had a great time. The pictures turned out so good. I hope you are resting up for the big Day! I can't wait to meet #4 baby Eisenhart.Love, Janella

Yes, Janie, those markets and GETTING FOLLOWED AND STARED AT AND GIGGLED at about drive our family insane...if ONLY we could go somewhere unnoticed...without stopping the traffic. BUT...it was good to hear that now, years later, you can laugh about it...maybe that'll happen to us too. =) Thanks for your sweet comment. Praying for you and baby.
My cousin, who was due YESTERDAY...made the cute comment that her baby was late for it's OWN birthday. =)
Love, Heather =)

Ok..here's the voice of opposition, I'll admit it, BUT...despite the risks - you managed to pull off a successful (and looks like fun too) camping trip at 9 months pregnant, 80% effaced, and 1 cm dilated. Girl! You are definately my hero! There are no others now - everyone is out of the running! Just one more question though...was that smile on your face real? Because if so, I will forever know that you are the bigger woman (and not just in the belly area either! ha ha ha. I only get to say that when you are 9-months pregnant, you know!) Love you!
