This weekend we went camping at
Autumn Lakes campground with the Price family and the Knupp family. They both stayed in cabins on the lake. The cabins here were really nice with their own kitchens and bathrooms. This campground has a nice lake with paddleboats, kayaks, and canoes.
The kids loved the paddle boats and canoes.

On Friday we were in the pool 4 hours. I got a really bad sunburn yet somehow the kids left unscathed.
We also ordered the pizza they make at the campground. It was surprisingly good and inexpensive for campground pizza!
Friday evening I left to go see my friend
Lara (Jenna's teacher last year). She wanted me and 3 other women to come and pray for her. She had a double mastectomy on Monday and will have to go through chemotherapy starting in August. It is so devastating how many people have cancer. Such an awful disease.

Fun on the lake! |
Saturday the campground had many activities such as
slip and slide, crafts, egg toss, petting zoo. We did all of the activities! Jenna and Paige won the egg toss and earned two dollars to spend in the store!
Then on Saturday right as Erik was making the fire for us to cook our hot dogs we got caught in a downpour! My vote was go to to a Chinese buffet since this is the default option when it rains, but we were outvoted and went to a pizza place. The pizza was great though and there was a beautiful rainbow. Fortunately the rain stopped in time for smores!

Ummmmm... I don't want to try this product |

In other news:
- Erik finished Warbreaker on our camping trip and really loved the ending. I was so excited that he loved it!
- I am reading How we Got to Now by Steven Johnson. This is an excellent book talking about how innovation breeds more innovation. The printing press led people to realize they needed glasses which led to microscopes and the telescopes, etc. It's a great read
- I am loving In Legend Born and Changeless. Two books I am also currently reading.
