We were able to get out camping once more last week (Thursday, Friday, Saturday - and would have stayed longer but they'd called for rain and storms that night and Sunday... which still haven't arrived), to William Lake again. As much as they don't have (electricity, the big nice playground), it really just is a wonderful place and we like it best! We've got a couple more camp sites we'd like to try out - eventually we'll figure out which ones we like best and want to pick when we go.
On Sunday we went to church, out for lunch with friends, then over to our friends' farm for swimming and a weenie roast for supper. Fun day, but long! The kids sleep well after playing, visiting, swimming, and just being out in the fresh air for that long!
And now another week - our last before school - and it'll go by quickly, I'm sure. Karate starts for the boys on the 6th, that's it for a few weeks, then Levi starts swimming lessons on the 24th (although he'll miss his first class being in Ottawa with me) (and the older 3 will be in swimming too, but with the school every Friday), and Ruthie will start gymnastics nearing the end of the month as well. Then we'll really be busy and time will fly!
Some pictures to end the post (because now they're done uploading!)...
Aug. 20th
Levi, his suckers, and his new seat
Aug. 27th - William Lake
cooler morning, we went fishing instead of swimming. levi threw rocks in the water while we tried to skip them.
ruthie fishing
Isaac fishing
Isaac laid on the dock for a bit, watching a boy fishing off the end of the dock
and watching little fish in the lake
Silly me. I got Levi out of the stroller, wanting a picture of him with some driftwood on the beach.
didn't happen.
instead he made straight for the water. clothes and all.
he didn't seem bothered in the least to be soaking wet!
Aug. 31st
the new addition to the house - runt!
we brought him home from the farm on Sunday. the kids have been wanting him all summer. he was the smallest kitten on the farm, very tiny little guy. hence his name!
he's very playful, doesn't like the dog much. he reminds me of my old cat tigger. surprisingly, caspian doesn't seem to mind him - no fights, no hissing (from the old cat), just watching the kitten and steering clear.
