Off to camp

As of yesterday, we don't have any baby birdlets... Martin nor I know how long it takes to hatch babies, so we'll just wait and see what happens in the next few days. I'll post pictures.

Wednesday was Grant's date. I told Graisi when she got off the school bus what the date was and that her brother died at 11:33pm 9 years ago. She quickly informed me that she would be in the bed asleep when 11:33 rolled around... Ah... the tender feelings of an 8 year old! I've been ok but I can't figure out where 9 years have gone.

Today, Graisi and I head to Camp "C" and hang out with her Girl Scout troop for 24 hours. She is so excited and I guess I am too, but I'm not looking forward to hauling all of the stuff up there and back and then have to unpack it again once we get home tomorrow night. Alli Claire is staying with her Daddy. She has removed her affection from him and quickly says "NO" when he asks for a hug or kiss. Because it's all about the Mommy... Hopefully, the time they spend together this afternoon and tomorrow will put him back into her good graces.... I hope. They have a big time planned for tomorrow and will watch thousands of yellow rubber ducks fall over the dam at our local park to help raise money for something or another. It's the annual duck race and me and Graisi won't be there... I'm sad! It's always good family fun.

Wish us well and safety and I'll see you back here later. Happy weekend everyone!

just wanted you to know that we remembered Grant was buried today. He's been on our minds and in our hearts...prayers were sent on his birthday and the day he went to heaven. We love you all.
