Vacation

Well, the boys and I took a summer vacation this year. I don't know if we'll be able to get together like this in the future, so it was doubly nice. We were thinking of heading down to Virginia, and maybe camping in Aunt Ruth's backyard, but I was worried about finances and the condition of my van. Instead, we spent a relaxing week together, hanging out, reaquainting ourselves with ourselves.

We watched videos together, worked on my yard (little portions at a time), played some games, took some walks. Sunday, we attended (Mark's and Summer's new baby) Briele's baptism, but got lost and didn't make it up to the party afterward. That was ok since we had a busy night planned at the college for the "Bon Voyage" performance of the Harmony Show Choir (which Jason and Kevin will be joining this coming September).

Tuesday we went to Grandmom's and Grandpop's house to paint their front steps. Wednesday we did meet Aunt Rita and Rebecca at Atsion Lake, for an afternoon of fun and swimming. I brought Jacob, a freind's son, with us. I think all the kids were growing fins by the time we told them it was time to leave.



After being invited by Rebecca Perry to go bowling on Saturday, we went up to visit Linda and the new baby, Alana Fay. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera. Jason took a picture with his phone, but Mom hasn't given the kids the option of sending any media from their phones, so he could only show it to people in the same room.

All in all, it was a nice week. I am rested. I can go on, now!
