We do still stay in Walmarts once or twice a week.
Depending on our driving. We are enjoying more campsites as well.
We get 50% off most of our campsites from clubs like Camping USA.and Passport America.
After we left Mount Rushmore we camped with our new friends, the Lundy5.
A family that digital scrapbooks their way around the US!
Check out their store here.
I'm going to start digital scrapbooking this trip as well!
Super easy, super cute!
We ALL (kids and adults) got along so well and had so much in common. We decided to camp together for a few days in Wyoming....
On our way to Devils Tower.
The Lundy5 and the Ryan7
on a hike at Devils Tower
Before visiting and doing the Jr. Ranger program at Devils Tower we made sure to read,
"Wonders of Geology." By Ken Ham
American Indians consider the area sacred, a place for prayer and renewal. We did see one Indian praying and making noises and banging a drum.
Fieldtrips are so much more fun when friends come along!
Finley ended up being a crazy climber. She wants to keep up with all the older kids...
We saw a bunch of praire dogs and read about them as well.
The Dad's showing off for the kids...
On our way back to the campsite we chased the end of a rainbow....
looking for gold.....
It was beautiful!
Margie Lundy took some really neat pictures...here's a slideshow of pictures she took from Devils Tower.
taking it easy in Beulah, Wyoming...
a small town, only a gas station and a saloon!
We wanted to go to church but since the saloon wasn't holding service we just hung out at camp. Allen Lundy use to be a worship leader so he lead us in some worship songs.
Great fellowship with a family we just met!
The kids played.....and played......and played!
Good old fashion playtime.
It's such a blessing to be able to provide such a simple, yet profound life on the road for our kids!
We had worship and sang songs around a campfire.
Saw heat lightning and learned about that.
Did crafts and painted..... everything when mom wasn't looking!
explored....
relaxed...
Don't worry Landen has a fake gun here. ha! Boys having fun just being boys!

I've enjoyed catching up on your trip. Lots of wonderful photos. It looks like both families had a great time. When we start back up with school, I may use your blog for my twins, to help them with their geography :-)
Blessings,
Marcia
how fun!!!!! I love reading both your blogs! Hopefully we will all meet up it looks like so much fun!
Awesome post and wonderful, wonderful pictures, how perfect that you even got one with all of you in, love, love!
So happy you got to meet up with another FOTR, our kids have always enjoyed when that's happened this past year. We've hit our 48 states and are heading back to PA for a while...with every intention of getting back on the road in the future for the long drive up to Alaska (and maybe a flight to Hawaii); guess we'll have to think about Europe then...:)
