Family Fun!

Another successful camping weekend. We made way to the “cottage” late Friday night with the Ellingham golf cart delivery. It was up early Saturday to go scope out some yard sales. Curtis was on a mission to find a bigger bike and we hit pay dirt when we found “The Green Goblin”. What a steal at only $1.00. Good thing because Curtis wasn’t going to pay more than $20. What a bargain hunger, just like his Dad. There were some other treasures found too that were enjoyed all weekend long.


Some more time at the beach, of course, and hanging with Uncle Steve, Aunt Sherry, Baby Sarah. Mom managed to get the rest of her flowers planted & Dad was steadily working on the patio for the new shed. We also had the honour of touring Uncle Steve’s mom, Sylvia, around the campground. She had a sleep over with Baby Sarah but was up and gone before some of us even woke up the next morning…hope it wasn’t anything we said :-)

Saturday night we went to Family Fun Night where there were all sorts of games for everyone to play. We played sack toss, special bacci ball, musical hoops & spike drive. Spencer & Curtis both won prizes for the special bacci ball and Spencer was very close in both the sack toss and the musical hoops. Daddy’s team was victorious against Uncle Steve’s team in the spike drive (shhhh…don’t tell anyone but Uncle Steve’s team could have won if he had hit the spike…even once ;-} )




Sunday morning was off fishing for the boys. Unfortunately nothing was biting because the really cool rocket launching fishing rods were a big time bust. Oh well, maybe next time with the right rod. We gotta be ready for the fishing derby coming up!



Of course, we couldn’t forget baseball. As always, the boys were instrumental in team success!















It got really hot and muggy so the balance of the day was finding some shade, then the water guns, golf cart cruising/drag racing to try to create a breeze, then landing at the beach for some cool & refreshing jumping and dunking.

Before we knew it the weekend was over & it was time to shower & get back on the road. We all are really looking forward to the extra long weekend next weekend!!!
