camping again!!!!

Things are good. Thought I would update. I am loving my laptop. I am sitting here watching Love It or Leave It. Papa is out on the porch with Toby. It got nice today. I think 70. My throat is very scratchy and I'm not feeling all that well tonight. And then Lanny cleans the burners. I hate that smell so bad. Simply Green on burners? That can't be right. Besides stinking it is killing me. It is Monday....I had the day off. Very nice. I  needed that extra day off. We went camping last weekend with the whole family. Friday night was fun. Brad & Tara and girls made it for dinner and s'mores...and bike riding.

Amanda and Andrew too!!! They spent the night. Amanda, Heather, Karla, Andrew and I played a fun game....laughed so hard!!!! Good times.

Had a great breakfast...took papa 3 hours to cook all the bacon. Heather and Joel cooked the hashbrowns over the fire, papa cooked the eggs and Amanda cooked the toast. There were 18 of us having breakfast!

All the rest of the day we just played. Kevon showed up! All the kids loved that.... everyone rode bikes all over the place. They got to ride in the back of Joel's truck to the beach and to the bunkers.

They played in the woods, went on walks, we played Bocce, we played kick ball, nephew Jack came with a friend Melissa and her daughter who played with the kids and had fun. Maddie learned to ride her bike! That was so exciting to watch her ride! Veronica showed up and rode bikes with Dylan. That night we had steak for dinner and s'mores. Kevon brought his guitar out. We sang and laughed and had so much fun! Kevon made up songs about people and we couldn't stop laughing. But we did...and got to bed around 10:30.  Sunday morning I made tons of scrambled eggs and that is what we had...then we all started packing up and we were out of there by about 11. Weird. Dylan and Lauren rode home with me.

Well....I need to go to bed.  Back to work tomorrow after 4 days off. :*(  Have a great week!
