I took the kids to the orthodontist this morning for their monthly appointment. Maria's mouthpiece was broken and they had to order a new one. Luckily, they aren't going to charge us. After that, I stopped home and wrote out a few bills, took a walk with my hubby and little kids and picked blueberries before going back to the lake. We also had a family meeting.
Lindsay and Brian came over with the baby, Lucia and we took a ride on their boat. Later on at night, we went up to the main dining room where they had live music. Roger, from the camp ground told us to bring our guitars and fiddles so that we could join them. They called us up to play and we did six songs, all gospel. Someone bought the kids popcorn and they sat nicely while they ate it. I really could get used to this kind of living. It's 100% christian here...no smoking, drinking or skimpy attire on the grounds. The kids are begging to stay over night again on Saturday, but it's time to go home.
The mailman brought me a big stack of new books today. I love to learn and read about things that apply to my life at the time. The books are mostly about time management, running a business, homeschooling, whole foods, stuff like that. It's the college education that I never got or really wanted, I guess. When I start a book, I read it from the back to the front. Does anyone else do that? I wonder. My friend from the Key's sent me a package with a new devotional in it, too! We will read it together and compare notes. Love that lady!
It's almost 3 AM and it's the third night I've been up this late because the older kids have friends over and they've all been over here. I've been having fun though sitting by the fire and talking to the kids, don't get me wrong, but his 3 AM stuff has to stop!
Up, up and away!

Who says teens don't want to work? I wonder what they are making for breakfast!
