Summer Fun






Hasn't this week been just beautiful?! I can't imagine a better August. This truly makes up for the heat last year. We had a great weekend. Both Dan and I were off this whole weekend (this rarely happens). Saturday morning the girls got to hang out with their cousing Nick. That evening we all went to Dan's Aunt Karen's house. Dan, Sarah, and Emily all went swimming in the in-ground pool. Afterwards we ate dinner and then Dan's cousin entertained Sarah and Emily the rest of the evening. On Sunday we did some shopping, bought some necessities for the camper. Then we went swimming at the beach waterpark. The girls enjoyed the sand most of all. It was a good time. I hope this weather continues into the fall. Dan has vacation days this week, so we'll have to see what kind of trouble we can get into. We have lots of fun coming up - Fantasy Football Draft, Gatlingburg, Emily's birthday, etc. Check in for updates!

More to come on camping fun!

Well, as a family we have made the big decision and bought ourselves a pop-up camper. We went to an rv place on route 42 on Monday and looked around. And of course everyone knows it is never good to look at something because you always end up buying - even if you say, oh, I am only going to look. Dan will be picking up our brand new camper on Tuesday and bringing it home. Sarah and Emily had an absolute blast looking at all the campers. Everytime Sarah would go into one she would say "Oh My!" which of course was always followed by Emily saying "Oh my." Then they would sit at the tables, climb on the beds and check out the bathrooms. I think for the kids going to the camper store was better than any possible vacation. I will be posting pictures of our luxurious camper once it arrives home. Until then feel free the visit this website for all the details. We purchased a fleetwood, the destiny series, I believe it is called the yuma. Anyhow, check out this site for all the details. http://www.cincinnaticolemanrv.com/folding.asp?DealerID=C508808&mind
