Family Staycation

Don't laugh, but we are on vacation and we are getting very silly.  If you know our family, you know how creative and goofy when it comes to our times together.

We lost the last vacation due to a change some plans with friends.  Then we lost our vacation trip this time, because we found out a day ago, family is coming any day now.  This doesn't stop us at all!  So every day that we do a daily vacation adventure, we are going to pretend it's some elaborate exotic trip that some only dream of.  We are having a blast, actually, just clinging to each other.  In fact, one of our Facebook friends said she hoped we got to go someplace great.  I could only say it was the greatest place on earth, right into my husband's loving arms!!

The vacation actually started Thursday night.  From then until Sunday we had some friends doggies, cut grass with another friend and helped out with some children at church.  Our imagined trip for this was Maine.  We helped with some hillside clearing for an animal rescue; then fostered some precious healthy pups for an upcoming even, and managed a lovely weekend ministry camp for children.

Today, we shopped for our amazing eldest son's 13th birthday, and visited an area camp and lake site with beach and swimming.  The imagined travel was shopping in Paris and a long leg to the Amazon for gator wrestling in the river.  Funnnnn!!!

Yep, we have fun.  Yes we are silly, and I can assure you there is never a dull moment.  Tonight we will sit on the deck with our sound machine...you decide ocean waves, big Ben, train travel, creekside camping.  You pick and we will enjoy any atmosphere you choose.  How fun is that.  Just don't send up "up the river"  haha!!
I hope to update during breaks between adventures.  Love to all!
