- Damon's 5th - 6th grade Sunday School class had an overnight campout at our house last night. We swam, kayaked, went off the zip-line, had a marshmallow gun fight, roasted hot dogs and ate smores, slept in tents in 90+ degree weather. A fun time was had by all, but I'm a bit tired today!
- Our county fair was this past week. This is the first year the boys have not been in 4-H. I have such fond memories of hanging out every night at my county fair growing up, but our local fair is nothing like that. We spent a total of about 1 hour at the fair, and saw everything there was to see. I did get my elephant ear fix for the next year though.
- We just repainted the boys room. It was definitely time after living here for 5+ years. They decided on green. Now, if you've ever been to my house, you would know that every room is off white/beige. I am definitely NOT an interior decorator. So the green room is really growing on me. Jordan and I put up a wildlife wallpaper border. It looks good! Maybe I'll venture out of my comfortable beige walls, and splash a little color around this place?
- Dan and I had a "date night" and we went to see I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. Very funny!
- We've enjoyed watching our garden grow. This year we have corn, potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, about 6 kinds of peppers, watermelons, cantaloupe, several varieties of pumpkins, asparagus, & rhubarb. The deer ate all of our green beans. The pumpkins are enormous, as we started a compost pile last year and have feed them with that.
Well, that sums up the highlights of what's been up in our lives lately. Happy Trails!
