Camping in the fall

Camping in the fall is the greatest time. We went to Cedar Hill State Park this past weekend and were lucky enough to get a site by the water. I wanted to have a Ghost theme, and bought ghost lights, and a couple of hanging ghosts. I had a little hand puppet theatre that I spray painted black and brought stuff for the kids to make hand-puppets. They put on a show that was so cute! I also bought them some little latterns so they could carry them around in the dark. Max was so happy to have the same thing that the big kids had. It took him no time to figure out how to turn it on and off. My grandkids are the smartest!!! The only thing I didn't do great on was getting all the food things together - I WILL DO BETTER next time! The beach at the park was really just a mud hole - it was bad - but we have an outdoor shower on the camper so watching those "little naked bodies" shower was the cutest thing! Thanks everyone for making the effort for coming camping - I know with everyone working it is really hard to do anything on the weekends. So thanks - we had a blast!!! ps as usual I didn't take any pics

New deck

Yesterday Bobby and I finished a deck I have been planning for a long time. It's located behind the trampoline - so when the kids are jumping we will have a seat to watch them. I also put in a campfire firepit. I will have to wait until spring to landscape it - but I think it may be one of my favorite place to sit!!!! It wouldn't surprise me if Molly & Jack find it to be a great new stage for their wonderful plays!!! I just to build some steps for it then it will be finished. Hope everyone is doing great with Cody & Nicole back to work, and Jack, Molly and Max back to school!!!!!!!!!! Love, Nana
