Camp Mamaw Day Four

Tuesday we started the day out at Apple Camp. Gee it is the BEST deal around. The kids got to go to 3 hours of computer camp, got a t-shirt, patch, and a disk with their work (not to mention the learning) for the fee of FREE!!!!!!!!!!!! They did Garage Band and both of them had a ball. They have come home and are doing new songs with what they learned. Totally cool. Tom picked Ben up after camp and Emily and I had a "girl" afternoon. We did Back to School shopping, had lunch, enjoyed a Starbucks treat and then ended the afternoon with a pedicure! Now that was a good afternoon.
Later that evening Ben, Emily and I went to Incredible Pizza. Tom was too pooped to go. So we chowed down on the buffet and got some video games played.

Camp Mamaw Day Three

Well today was full of water fun. We spent the day at Schlitterbahn. We arrived at about 10:20 a.m. and closed the park down at 8:00 p.m. We waited in lots of lines but we caught up on visiting. Carla, Dennis, Caden and Charles joined us. Everyone had tons of fun. No real sunburn injuries. We had put dinner in the crockpot so we had a bite to eat ready for us when we got home. Then it was straight to bed. Caden was being a little toot and didn't want his picture taken. But I got my kisses!

Where I have been.

Dear Blog Friends,
I am sorry again to have been away so long.
Actually I have been very busy.
First there was a trip to LA to stay with our nephew
while his parents went to Ireland.
While I was there I read four book, took two
cooking classes, one Apple class and
went to Santa Barbara to visit our niece
(the sister of the nephew---tee hee)
and do lots of walking in the beautiful city
of Westlake Village.
So then, a week after I got back from LA, I drove to Houston
to co-give a bridal shower for another niece. Then I spent
a few days with my oldest (long time not age) friend, Diane.
We did lots of running around, and laughing, both which we
are very very good at.
then I drove to Dallas to attend the dance recital of my
beautiful granddaughter.
If my also beautiful daughter would send the the photos I
would share them........
then there was the long drive home.
Lots of driving and lots of happiness to be home
and in my own bed.
love to all,
m
