A few weeks ago we had a realtor come over and tell us what we needed to do to make the house better for selling. Mike has gotten most of it done (it was surprisingly not that much) and now only has to get some stuff out of the basement and paint it. Hopefully this will all be done this week and we can list it next week! Woo-hoo!!! I am super excited about this!
We took a break from house stuff to go camping over Labor Day weekend. Jamie, Steven and Logan went with us. Mike, myself, the kids and Scout got down there Friday night. Our campsite was extremely small and very rocky. We were not very impressed, but we set up camp and were settling in. I had to get some stuff, so Mason and I headed to the store once camp was set up. While I was gone Mike called saying that the camp sites were filling up and that he didn't think Jamie and Steven would get a site next to us and that I should call them. So I called Jamie and she called the place to reserve it and told them we wanted to be by each other if at all possible. Well they had to move some stuff around and were able to get us in neighboring camp sites. So, when I got back from the store we took down camp and relocated. Man am I happy we did. Our new campsite was HUGE compared to the last one...at least three times the size and there weren't nearly as many rocks (pretty much none). Mike got a fire started and we roasted some hot dogs on a stick over the fire for dinner. The next day about mid-morning Jamie, Steven and Logan arrived. Mike helped them get their camp set up and we had lunch and just enjoyed the camping. Overall, it was a good trip. We basically hung out at our sites, the kids ran free, Scout was amazingly good and we only headed into town once to venture around. The only thing I can complain about it the SPIDERS! I HATE spiders and they were EVERYWHERE. I have been camping numerous times in my life and I have NEVER seen this many. They were daddy long legs, but they were, with legs and all, sometimes the size of a softball. And at any given time there were at least five on our tent. They would crawl up your legs, drop from the trees onto you and were in general all over EVERYTHING. It was gross. But I obviously made it through okay, but really they were bad. I almost forgot,Sunday night four different resorts set off fireworks over the lake and we went up to a lookout where we could see all four at once! It was awesome.
Monday morning we got up and packed up and left. We got home gave kids and dog a bath. Mike and Morgan took naps while Mason played with his toys and I got my much needed shower. When I was ready I woke up Mike and we headed to his Dad's for a Labor Day BBQ. The food was amazing as usual and it was nice to hang out in the house! Then we came home, did NOTHING and then went to BED!
That's all for now. Just thought I needed to update before my next post ended up being twice as long!!!
