Better Than Disneyland

Our Family camp experience was better than Disneyland.  We had bible study, fellowship with some members of our church family and fellow family campers.  The kids were able to do an abundance of outdoor activities that we have never done and I did not have to cook or clean dishes.

Baird, TX Photos

There were so many good ones, here's a sample. Kelley has become an excellent photographer.

Baird, TX

Besides running through the Dallas airport there and back, my July Texas trip with the girls was a success.

We had all the elements; friends, animals, good food and christian fellowship. It was wonderfully relaxing in spite of toting around 4 kids in 108 degree weather. A bonus was that the kids were able to see up close most of the indigenous (and non-indigenous) animals except the diamondback rattlesnake. Luckily the four geese probably keep enough noise and activity around the house, they don't want to nest there.

Water is getting scarce so if you can add "rain for Baird, Tx." to your prayer list, please do.

Kelley took many wonderful pics and as soon as I get them, I'll post the best. My camera ran out of battery the first hour I was there. Somehow, it always happens that way.

Spring Break

We're at home this week. I finally took the kids to the library and renewed my library card. They really enjoyed it. We'll do it again once we've read all the books we brought home.

Just Beachy

Carys and Helen spent a week at the beach with their new friend Cassidy. Helen was stung by a jellyfish (it healed the same day-incredible), they hunted crabs at night, Carys loved it when the waves crashed over her which made me a bit nervous. And they watched Cinderella no less than 16 times. It was a great farewell to summer trip. Poppy could not join us this time but we'll be sure he comes next time.
