Finally we were able to go on a camping trip. Yesterday we packed up our camper and headed out for the night. We were only able to go for the one night because I have to go to work later today, but still it was nice to get away for one night. We went to the campground that we always go to and were quite amazed at all the changes they made during the last year. They put in a new pool, different equipment in the playground and even set up a cardboard display to list all the upcoming activities that they will be having in the park. This has always been our favorite place to camp and now with all these changes they have made it even better. We are hoping to go back out again later in the week and you can just bet that we will be headed back to our favorite camping site.

Well yesterday we got a jump on the school shopping that we need to have done. With only three weeks left before the kids are back in school we really needed to get started on this. So over the next three weeks we will slowly start purchasing all the things the kids are going to need to get back into the school season. It’s going to cost quite a bit to get two kids ready for school, but if we make these purchases over the next three weeks it won’t hurt us quite as bad as purchasing it all at once.
