Labor Day Camping Picture Overload

A picture overload is what happens when the Rupp's have a great time camping.

On our first morning at Hickory Run, we took a trip over to the beach area.  Look at what we found.  It's a "Frogpole".  Half frog and half tadpole.  Mommy tried to catch him but he jumped and scared her.
Now that the frogpole was gone, it was time to catch some real tadpoles.
Daddy caught one.
We even found a baby salamander.
Daddy caught some great shots of the full grown frogs.
We decided to take a hike with the Naturalist.  She headed us down Hickory Run Trail to meet Sand Spring Trail. 
On the way back, Nathan found a great piece of fire wood.  He had us carry it the whole way back to the car at the ranger's station. 

The next morning, we took a trip back over to the spillway with Aunt Kelly.  Nathan and Mommy enjoyed time together on the rocks.
Drew and Daddy posed for a good picture together.
Later in the afternoon, we hiked to Hawk Falls.  Drew was being a silly boy and sticking his toes in the cold water.
Nathan and Drew are two cuties.
Mommy loves her smiley boys.
It's a rare occasion when Drew wants to pose for a picture.  So, we snapped a few.
Aunt Kelly loves posing with her nephews.
Family shot at the falls.
After a busy night, the kids are out.
More wildlife to grab some pictures of.
On our last day, we decided to take a rainy walk around boulder field.  We didn't get too far because the rocks were too wet.
