Memorial Day

We had a great Memorial Day. We were not able to go camping with our friends at the State Park because it is a 2 and 1/2 hour drive. Our budget and gas prices just did not allow it this year. Several others had to back out as well.

However, we had a great weekend at Hejamada. We started off the weekend by going shopping for bathing suits and with young teens that is no easy project. We did find some nice looking but modest suits and all were happy, except Dad who fell asleep on the mall bench after a 2 hour wait. The girls also had fun picking up a few summer outfits at Steve & Barry's (Brittany's new favorite store).

Everyone in our family is making new friends and meeting new people. The girls are making friends with girls and boys, which is hard to admit that my little girls are growing up.

It is also going to be an interesting summer because everyone lives so close to you at camp and often know what you are doing most of the time. For example, our beagle got upset with us because we went for a walk without him. So, he decide to tear the screen on the door of the camper. John did a great job of getting new screen and repairing it but I was surprised by how many people commented on the incident.

I know what you mean about gas prices.... I can hardly afford to drive anywhere anymore.

Yes I will send out both phones this week sometime. I need to find the charger for them. :) you'll like them for sure!
