Mount Rushmore

Where do you go when you can't decide where to go camping? Apparently at our house, Mount Rushmore. Avery had Monday and Tuesday off of school this week and we were planning on going camping. We couldn't decide where to go. Kev on Wednesday night said what about Mount Rushmore? So, Thursday afternoon I called a bunch of campgrounds to see if they had room. We decided at about 7:00 Thursday night to just go, so Friday we were off. A little later than we wanted thanks to a last minute project Kev had to do at work, but we had a blast! We went to the lighting ceremony and it was pretty cool. They play a little patriotic movie about the 4 presidents and then sing America the Beautiful and then light them up. Then everyone joins in the National Anthem. Avery was so excited to get to sing the National Anthem. Haley was done by that point so her and Kev went up a little way and she ran around. She likes to sing it, too, and knows most of it thanks to her big sis.
