A little bit of fun

Well it has been awhile since I have written so I decided it was time. Things have been good but hectic around here. T is gone alot, I am alone with all 3 kids and no school, and just trying not to go crazy in the process. It hasn't been easy but we are making it. After a small vacation in NJ we are back home and trying to find stuff to do while I am working out my new camera, a Kodak C913. Not the DSLR I wanted but this little thing rocks. Tons of settings and a lot of options. I have been having fun with this little camera. I still like my SLR but that is more for shots I know will turn out or just for the fun of it now. I think I may be able to get my mom the updated pics she wanted. YEAH!!!!

Over the past few days we have been doing all kinds of fun stuff. On Friday we went to the NC Transportation Museum in Spencer and had a blast seeing all of the huge trains up close and personal. Watching the train turn on the roundabout was worth the trip in itself. We also got to see a ton of older vehicles, planes and more. It is truly an interesting adventure and a fun time to boot.


Here are some pics from our time there:






On Saturday, aka..today, we went to the Dunns Mountain Nature and Historic Preserve. This place is amazing. Not very big but it is a 3/10 mi walk up hill to the top which is over 1000 ft above sea level. You can see for miles around and on a clear day you can see over something like 27 counties. It was a slightly hard walk up and a fast one down but all the kids had fun. They loved the views of the quarry and huge rocks we saw. We got some really cute shots of all the kids and some awesome shots of the area

Hoping tomorrow bringas another fun day. Gotta clean a little around here but other then that we are looking to do something special again.
