Adventures in the morning

The next morning we had plans to drive down to deep creek and go tubing. Because we were not too far way here at Smokemont we had a more relaxed morning. 
While Olivia and I were still in the tent sleeping the boys and Eric and already gotten up and decided to let us sleep and took a little walk around the campground. 
They made their way up to the ranger station and were able to get a good look at these giant bugs. Thomas thought they were really cool because they were green. They were also able to find a few bottle caps for Sups collection. 
It was nice to be able to sleep in a little bit after and early morning the previous day and with the travel. I was able to wake up refreshed and get things going for breakfast. 
Although we used the dutch oven to cook our cinnamon rolls, I did take a short cut from the store and bought the ones in the dairy section. This way I didn't have to mess with yeast and having to let them rise. 
It was nice that Olivia decided to sleep a little longer so I was able to get most of our breakfast cooked before she was up and about. 
We had a pretty yummy breakfast : ) This was the first time that I had a chance to use my dutch oven out camping. I found it really nice to have around for different warm options that we didn't have to worry about building a fire. Just waiting 15 mins for the coals to get hot and we can have warm yummy meals!
