We had a great time camping this weekend at Bear Creek Lake State Park. It stormed Friday night pretty loudly. But, the weather got a lot better. The Soccer Player caught five fish. We spent the afternoon Saturday swimming and paddle boating around the lake. Smores were a great way to end the weekend.
Then, we had a birthday cruise for him Saturday night with some of our special friends.
And, we ended it Sunday with a trip to Busch Gardens. Most people only celebrate the big birthdays - 40, 50 and so on. He decided to be different and celebrate 42. I hope it was as special for him as we tried to make it.
It is that time of year again - RECITAL! The Dancer has been hard at work trying to learn her routine. Her feet never stop tapping - even when she is sitting down. I had been worried because during her classes she has been very intense and not smiling at all - or giving a fake smile that looked more like a scowl. But, as I should have known, as soon as she stepped out on that stage last night for dress rehearsal, she was beaming. My little drama queen loves the stage!
Our church's youth are doing a Flamingo Fund Raiser. This morning, The Gals and I walked out to find these pretty pink birds sitting in our front yard. I hope they liked the shower they got from our sprinkler system.
The Gals have both been playing Field Hockey this spring. They are loving it! I think the sticks make them feel powerful.
