This fall we drove from PA back down to GA in time for the Fall CV3 Camping Trip. This year it was held st Stone Mountain and included a day at the high ropes course. Here is a picture of the front of the course…
The morning consisted of team building games. I’m still not sure why he had to stand around blindfolded…
After lunch everyone went through the ropes course. It is like a big erector set that you are strapped into. I thought this would make it so I could do it… I was wrong! I made it across two boards and froze! Oh well… the course has three levels: 10ft, 20ft, and 30ft. All three of my kids made it on all three levels. They are too young for fear. Samantha was scared a couple of times but she worked through it. Here is a picture of Nathan with Joshua…
Another of Nathan with Joshua…
Timmy and Josh needed to have an adult with them because they couldn’t get their ropes into the tracks without help. Throughout the course you go to a challenge and are given two tracks that you can go to, one easier, one more difficult. Then you have a platform and then another challenge with two choices.
Here is a picture of Samantha…
Timmy on the course…
The next day the whole company hiked up and then back down Stone Mountain…

At church Samantha was given the assignment to draw a saint on a shirt and make a sock puppet so she could teach one of the younger classes about a saint. Most of the family is not talented artistically. However, Aunt Bridgette was in town visiting for a few hours picking up Aunt Christina to take her home after her back surgery. Aunt Bridgette is extremely talented. I gave her 6 paint markers and a white shirt along with a picture of Saint Rebecca….
I think it is safe to say that Samantha had the best shirt at the church! Thanks Aunt Bridgette!!
Samantha also has been getting involved with the local girl scout troop while we are in PA, so she had the opportunity to march in the Greenville Halloween parade with the troop. They all wore pink from head to toe (even their hair) and threw Bazooka bubblegum to the crowd while singing a Bazooka bubblegum song…

This year we were in PA long enough to see some beautiful foliage. I took pictures of my favorite trees and also of the views down at the river. Enjoy…

We celebrated Halloween at Shenango this year. We were still in PA for the actual Halloween so this was the only celebration of the holiday that the kids got. Of course the kids wanted to enter the costume contest again but we didn’t win this year. I guess we need to change our costumes. Here is Samantha with her friend Courtney…
Joshua dressed as Captain Hook…
Timmy dressed as Prince Caspian…
A picture of Nathan’s haircut. We shaved scabbards into the beard and left a mohawk in the middle…
