Camp Week

This year ALL FOUR children were at CAMP at the SAME TIME.

I didn't know what to do with myself.

I thought maybe I should be constructive and industrious and CLEAN the house.

That idea lasted about half a second.

I laid on my SWING

 

 (sans children)

and worked my way through a NOVEL or two.

I had a fabulous DAY-LONG DATE with my hubby.

We ate a fabulous GOURMET BREAKFAST at Miss Shirley's.

I had Coconut Creme Stuffed French toast.

BLISS

Hubby had Surf and Turf Omelette.

UM...YUM

We went out on a SPEEDBOAT TOUR of our city's harbor afterward.

That was a lot of FUN!

We also ate this perfectly yummy soft-serve-ice-cream-tasting banana 

at ANNIE'S BANANIES in the Light Street Pavilion.

I visited my favorite consignment BOUTIQUE, The Shabby Button in Kingsville.

I had LUNCH WITH A FRIEND at my all-time favorite lunch spot, Open Door Cafe.

I'm already working out how much MONEY we need to SAVE each month

so we can afford to send the kids to CAMP NEXT YEAR.

summer fun: silly photo booth

The kids bought foam core board and poster board at the dollar store,

 

put together some fun frames,

 

and signs,

moustaches 

and kissy lips, 

and dragged out a few props from the playroom 

 

to create this 

totally 

fun 

 photo 

booth.

And just because I'm faithful to all two of my regular readers,

I'll throw in a little extra shot my facebook friends didn't get:

Yep, that's me trying to do my Rocky thing.

I know, didn't work so well.

Maybe next time I'll try a moustache!

Silly Boy!

He sat silently eating his breakfast

while his daddy and I played cards at the other end of the table.

He was so patient, waiting for us to notice.

My little comedian has some serious self-control.

 

And a killer smile...chewed-up-food and all.

I'm so grateful God gave us Brian!
