O.k.....so I am a little behind. School(teaching) has started back for me and I am not too happy. Thought I would post a funny picture-Devyn after camping out on the field at school. Her school had a campout with 100 families on a Friday night. It was a great idea-and well organized-had I gotten any sleep!!! The man sleeping in the tent behind us snored all night long. I thought there was a bear behind us! I thought I was well-prepard and had taken a sleeping pill. But that didn't even help. I had just fallen asleep when Ron woke me to tell me he was going home to sleep-it was 2 a.m......then I really couldn't sleep. Here was what we did at the event: Friday night they served El Pollo Loco, we played games, and ate S'mores. We weren't allowed to actually have fire pits (safety issue), so the S'mores came in a bag. My daughter talked me into a kids against parents soccer game. It was myself and 4 dads-versus about 20 kids! They just kept coming. I was dying.....couldn't give up though because my daughter kept telling her friends "that is my mom over there". I ended up with a pulled groin muscle and a sore ankle the next morning. Let me just say, in all of my life I was NEVER on a soccer team and I am NO spring chicken. In the morning, we hiked up to Robber's Peak (not me though-I was dying...) and then had Krispy Kreme donuts, fruit, juice, and coffee. Then we all packed up and left. It was a fun experience. Devyn got to hang out with all of her friends. I guess I would do it again. Could I ask for a "NO SNORING SECTION??????"
