As of the this last week I think we have had at least one thunderstorm every night. And that means scared kiddos.
This is the picture hubby and I woke up to on Friday this last week. They were cuddled up at the bottom of our bed!!!
And this was Saturday night where we had about 10 thunderstorms / about one every twenty minute or so. One would end and twenty minutes later another would start. I will say this though..it is considerably cooler!!!

She turns TWO!!
Lady Bug turns two today...And bot looking back has she changed. She is such a beautiful little girl!!With Captivating eye s and an electric smile. What a joy she is. Here are a few pictures to mark today's events!This is Lady Bug a few days after she was born
And this is her today..with her birthday presents..not the dolls or the back pack but the stroller and high chair...
This was her dinner..She didn't have cake for dinner ..Ok so maybe in a way she did!. Her favorite is pancakes. So i made chocolate chip pancakes with cool whip and blueberry syrup and sprinkles.
She loved it!!!
She wasn't quite sure what t make of the candles though
She tried and tried to blow them out but it just didn't work!
So someone had to help after the 5th or 6th try!!
And this is the aftermath...by the way that is tapioca pudding!!
She didn't want her picture taken so she closed her eyes thinking..if I can't see you you surely can't see me!!
We will have Birthday cupcakes when our friends come up for a visit this weekend. their daughter turns one in a week!

Battles Waged
We had a GREAT weekend! Hubby and the kids walked around the lake (that's 3 Miles)On Saturday he took Just Tornado and Lady bug. Vug wasn't awake yet so he slept a while longer. On Sunday Hubby took all three. Now you may ask how can he take all three. He wasn't by himself either of those days. hid parents were also at the Conference!!
The two toddlers were in the double Stroller and Vug was in a front pack on Hubby! They had a great time.
We didn't get any pictures this weekend but I can tell you of some happenings that occurred.
Friday
- Got to camp and set up
- In the middle of the night had a huge Thunderstorm that lasted hours (no we didn't get soaked)
Saturday
- Went swimming in the pool (Tornado hates this, but remarkably he is always the one who begs to go)
- Had lunch at dining hall
- Were going to go to the concert but we decided that we didn't want to overload the kids so we played with the kids in the open field near our camp site
- Another huge thunderstorm (no we didn't get soaked)
- Hubby and kids walked around the lake
- Church services..a good friend was the speaker
- Pappy took tornado and Lady bug to play at the play ground around the hedge row from our camp site...He put Tornado and Lady bug on One end of the Teeter totter and himself on the other end....What ensued resulted in these pictures
Yep you guessed it he fell off. He didn't fall very far but it was enough to give him that nice Shine!
The camp is so amazing with a huge lake the camp offers Pontoon boats. rowboats canoes, paddle boats and a speedboat where you can water ski and tubing!
They also have a swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts Shuffle board and miniature golf course, tether ball, 2 playgrounds, a Huge camper section, cottages, tent sites, a motel and a huge array of sports equipment. You don't have to bring your own. And A game room with all sorts of table games! Not to mention all the great speakers. you get two sessions everyday but that still leaves plenty of time to enjoy the outdoors and make some great friends!
Well I have a huge pile of stuff down in our den that is just calling me to unpack it So i will write again soon!

A true outdoors man already!Here's our camp site..this was after Hubby had taken down the screen tent over the picnic table. And yes we are the ONLY ones there...and that should be the same this weekend!
And there is the whole campsite! Truck Included!
Here is Daddy and Tornado cooking hotdogs over the fire. they were having a lot of fun togetherTornado with one of his favorite treat MARSHMALLOWS!
