David's 8th birthday...field trip!

Since David's birthday fell on a school day, I decided to do something special, both for his sake and for mine! :)
  We went hiking with friends at a local historic Civil War battlefield site -- Kennesaw Mountain -- and we had a great time!  Here are all of the kids at an overlook near the top of the mountain...
I have no pictures of David hiking because he was always way ahead of we who were slower!  Here's Abigail, though, posing on the trail.  It was difficult work for her, but she was a trooper!
 After a picnic lunch, we hiked an easier trail, then had some playtime near a stream...it all made for a great day!

We miss you McKee's and Duty's!!! Hope you had a great field trip/birthday! We're looking forward to homeschooling next year and doing exactly the same kinds of things! :-)

Perfect idea for this high energy boy of ours! Looks like a great way to spend the day-with friends!
