Happy 17th Birthday, Brooke!

I am so blessed to have you as my sister! Thank you so much for all that you do! Love you girl!

Family Camp 2011

The never ending road. . . 

Sunrise at Big Sandy! 

Sunrise on the lake. . . 

Brooke, Brenna, Charity, Abbie, and I all went on a devotional hike early Sunday morning.
 It was lots of fun!

The hike went through some trails through the woods, and we would stop every so often and read a Bible verse and pray. 

Miss Esther

Caleb had lots of fun riding his bike around the campgrounds and surrounding areas!

Look at that sweet face! 

Sliding down the slide...backwards of course! That is just what babies do!

Clay Elliott

Abbie and Charity Burnett! These girls got to stay in the dorm with us, and let me tell you, we had TONS of fun! From late night talking and visiting, to getting up at 6 in the morning so we could be the first ones at the rappelling tower...let me just say, we had FUN! 

Campgrounds!

You know you are in Big Sandy if you look up and see this!

Or this . . .

Another campground shot! Look at how beautiful everything is!

Clay and Caleb were best buddies on this trip! They did everything together! 

Abbie and Brittney

This might be my favorite shot of the whole trip. :)

 Look at how big Levi is getting!

Mom and Dad pose for a quick shot with Titus and Levi! These two little boys keep us all on our toes! 

Me and my Dad!

Levi...look at him hold his head up!

Abbie Burnett and Abby Mount.

Titus and Mr. Elliott

Brooke and Charity at a Lew Sterrett sermon.

We all enjoyed listening to Mr. Sterrett!

Titus. . . I think he would rather have been running around! 

 Everything was so pretty this time of year!

It actually rained one night/day! The rain was really refreshing!

Look close and you can see the airplane! 

Brooke and Brenna!

Beautiful clouds!

Some things were greener than others!

We got to go on a horse trail ride! Here are Brooke and Brenna sporting their helmets we had to wear during our horse ride!

Abbie, Charity, and Brenna at the rappelling tower! We thought we all looked like construction workers with our helmets on!

Brenna, waiting in line for the rappelling!

Charity

Waiting in line for rappelling. . . it was sure worth the wait!

Abbie

A quick moment caught of Parker Elliott and Oliver Covey! These two were having so much fun, they never even knew I was taking a picture!

Aren't they cute?

Here is Brenna coming down the rappelling tower! 

Look close and you can see Abbie and Charity about to come down!

Charity comin' down!

Abbie. . . headed down!

The rappelling tower! Unless you got there pretty early, you would have to wait in line for awhile!

Esther got to go on a plane ride! She had lots of fun!

Caleb ( he got to ride on the back seat!)

Dad. . .

A view from the airplane!

That's a highway!

If you look REALLY close, you can see the rappelling tower . . . it's in the top left of the picture.

A lake view from the air!

Brenna doing the rock climbing! That girl made it up all of the rock walls!

Yay, she made it to the top! Now she has to come back down :)

Mrs. Elliott on the rappelling tower!

Brooke about to come down!

Here is one of Brooke's "graceful" landings,  as the ALERT guys called it!

Brooke got some serious rappelling in! 

Brenna, all ready to go over the edge!

Brooke and Charity! Smile girls. :)

Charity, you are beautiful!

Caleb at the skillet throwing contest. And yes, that is a real cast iron skillet!

Clay! Dude, you have got some moves goin'!

Dad helped Esther with the bigger skillets, since they were a little heavy for her!

Clay and Caleb, best buddies!

Clay at the knife throwing!

Esther: "Parker I bet you can't pick me up!"
Parker: "Yes I can, Esther!"

Mrs. Elliott and Mom

Dad did the hatchet throwing! He got two in the target!

Caleb and the hatchet throwing!

And Esther ! I don't know why the ALERT guy looks so stressed out. :)

Dad and Mom

Pony rides!

Mr. Elliott even did the rock climbing!
