let me recap! It's been a fun-loaded-go,go,go-sort-of-week-plus-some for us :o) Normally that may would frazzle me, but it was a fun-loaded-go,go,go-sort-of-week-plus-some at the camp! ...that just makes it awesome fun!
We headed out the our camp on the bogue chitto river on thursday of the week before last. Saturday was our second annual memorial float! this year we opted for canoes & kyacks rather than tubes. I believe we had a group of 17 this trip. Can I just say...we know how to have fun on that river!
the dude did some swimming with kaitlyn when we got out at the camp & his new pal tyler taught him some brave/dangerous/all boy tricks along our bank ;o) Tyler is (kaitlyn's) bryce's little brother...super cool guy!
Ben made budies with Zeb, Tyler Wall's new puppy & we dang chowed down on some meat...shish-ka-bob style...mmmm!

So, Sunday we went to Granny's in Gillsburg to hang out with the family. Ben played with all his cousins. Maysie was a hit with all the great-grand-children, lol!
isn't she a doll in her little purse!?!

Pop & Prissy came out on the honda motor bike to hang with us for a while...


man, that was funny!
Skye came to spend the night with heather. That girl rocks, do you hear me?! She is creative! Not in a specific sence, but in a daily living, thinking, breathing sort of way. She's just fun! She & Heather 'cheffed' up a storm! (click these to see delicious detail!)
super fun stuff! Skye also introduced us to dewberries! Ben loved them! I love this picture!

I totally can't leave out Ben's big night this past friday! It was the season's last tball game for him. we missed the prior weeks game & haven't so much as picked up a ball or bat in weeks.
Ben had developed a bad habit in his swing. he put so much effort into hyking that leg up & stepping that there was no telling when the bat would make it's swing, lol. fustrating! And no amount of coachin by Chuck & I would break him of it...frustrating!
My baby got up there & hit the ball solid first pitch! Go Ben! ...as if that weren't enough...second bat...Ben got the best hit of the night (either team) a line drive past the pitcher in the air...line drive! that baby rolled to the outfield! Man, he made me proud...totally impressed with that last hit, dude!
So, there is more, but that covers the just! Hope everyone had a great week! Looking forward to heading back to the camp...
...where a hammock calls rather than this computer.
...where we go straight from pjs to bathing suits to cleaning up in the outside shower & back to pjs (read way-limited-laundry for lindey to do)
...where makeup & anything but a ponytail or braids is weird!
...where I think about Matt and how much he would adore spending lots of time out there with us.
...where Ben bravely jumps off the log into the fastest current ever & laughs while struggling to get over to me before he's down river!
...where family and friends come and just hangs out & cooks & plays cards & just hangs out as often as they can get out there!
ready.
