Khaki Drawer

So here's a random post. When we got married we bought a new dresser at the Walmart. A few months ago we decided that it was too small for the both of us so we hunted through the Walmarts near and far to find a matching model. (The model had been discontinued) Anyway we finally got a display one at the Walmart at Jordan Landing, disembled the thing and packed it to Hurricane in our Corolla. So now we have two matching dressers and an abundance of space. With so much space I decided that I should dedicate an entire drawer to nothing but Khaki items. It has affectionately been named the "Khaki Drawer" and is composed of shorts, pants, and all things Khaki. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

4th of July at the Ranch!

We had a wonderful 4th of July up on Cedar Mountain! After work on Thursday, we packed our camping gear, waited for Katie to get off work, and took off for Cedar Mountain! We were able to kidnap Kimber for the weekend too! It was pretty cramped in our little Corolla (aka the UGR!), but it was worth it to get everyone up there!
We spent the entire weekend up at the Lodge and my whole family was there! It was so fun! The men worked hard Friday morning cutting wood for the cabin, while the girls stayed behind and visited! Here are some pictures of my manly mountain man chopping wood:
It was so fun to get out of the heat of Hurricane and cool off a bit in the woods. Friday night we decided to go and have our own campsite over in Deep Creek (my dad's property) so I could actually sleep in our tent. It was so much fun! We had to drive the four-weeler to get over there because the road is so bad, and I had to let my family dog Kia ride on my lap the whole way because she was too scared to ride on the back! It was so beautiful over there with the creek and the tall grass!
I felt so bad for my allergic husband! We forgot to grab our Benadryl from the lodge before heading out, and he had a hard time with his nose dripping and couldn't breathe very easily. Luckily we did have some tissue, so he made it work for one night... poor guy! Doesn't he look amazing!



We stayed in Deep Creek for one night, then made our way back to the Lodge to hang out with the fam. We (well, mainly Bill) worked on a puzzle, played games, skipped rocks at the lake and just had a great time! It was so fun to be up there and not have to worry about what time it was, or having a deadline to meet. It was just good fun with the family! Here are a few more pictures from our weekend:
