We're going camping!

 

It's finally here ~

 the weekend of camping with my brand new Cub Scout! ♥ 

My son just joined up this school year with and has been SO EXCITED

 for the past month, cheerfully marking down the days on his wall calendar - lovingly called 'C-Day' ♥

 

Now we've camped before, and did the Girl Scout thing as well,

but that was a bit cushier - nice cabins, bedding, amenities!

While we aren't going full on rustic, it's pretty close -

 out in the Florida Everglades!

Bugs!  Snakes!  Wildnerness!  Rickety tents + cookin' outdoors over the fire!

No cellphones, laptops, ipods or electronics ~
we are unplugging and connecting to nature!

 

Oh. Me. Oh. My.

 

My son is one of the sweetest little boys with a gentle soul,

a constant smile and shares goodness everywhere he goes.

How could I not be excited to go along, after all :)

(I just hope the weekend goes by swiftly and safely, LOL!)

Other than my son, I won't know a soul on this campout
and hope to make new friends, great memories and home in one piece!

 

 

I've used an image I purchased for a swap and it's from Sassy Cheryls

and I followed the wonderful sketch from Poppy Sketch #16

and use the Pop of Pattern - Chevron

so I'll enter my card there to the challenge :)

 

 

I have a card to commemorate my trip to the wilderness to share :)

I have another post scheduled for Sunday

and I'm praying it launches without a hitch ~

just like our camping trip!

 

Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
