Who has a garage sale, camps, a birthday party, and dinner all in one weekend? You guessed right, The Anderson family did this. The rain makes you go a little silly around here. Camping in the rain did not sound at all appealing to me, but my husband was up for the challenge. We did not sleep in our tent, thank goodness. We stayed at our friends RV spot in Gold Bar WA in the shed on the property. We stayed dry and warm. I think if you have a campfire you are bound to just have a great time regardless of the nasty weather. Jon and I have been on a campout before where it started hailing on us when we went to bed. I never thought our friends Jina and Mike would ever camp again after that campout. That particular campout I thought we were going to freeze, we could not have a campfire due to high winds in Arizona up in the Pinetop area. Jon and I have left a camping trip due to high winds before. We went home and slept in our nice comfy bed, it was the best decision we made on a camping trip. It was the worst hike I ever went on, except to see the grandview at the top....DQ was at the bottom and I told Jon after what we hiked(rock climbed!) and I had to face one of my greatest fears...heights, we were going to DQ after the hike for icecream.
My boy Hudson.... I thought could not get any dirtier, he got dirtier I believe. The wetness and dirt stuck to him like glue. He started out having a tough time walking in his rain boots but got the hang of it at the end of the weekend because he was running from me in them before we left. Swimming in 57 degrees and rain, the guys took the kids swimming, crazy!!!!! The pool was heated.
I wrote this right after Memorial day weekend and forgot to finish and post. Here are the lastest happenings around the Anderson house....
Hudson has mastered the words "ball, and boots," boots pertaining to his rubber boots he wore camping. After coming home he wanted to put them on everyday with his jammies. Our screaming fits have got better, but he likes to do this for attention which is not appealing to Jon and I at all to say the least. Hudson loves to be outside playing at all times. The other day I was scrapbooking at my kitchen table and looked out and did not see him so I went to check on him and he was digging up my flowers out of my pots and just smiled I had to laugh it was funny but not really!!! Hudson knows where his bellybutton is and mommy's, his nose, ears,eyes, head,and mouth and he sticks his tongue out when you ask him to touch his mouth.
Bailey has her dance recital this Saturday. She is a Christmas tree. I will have to post pictures next week. Bailey has been in dance since 2 years old. It is amazing how much she has learned and continues to learn at dance. Bailey finished preschool in May and will be attending Gold Creek Community Church Pre-K in the Fall. Our Summer will be filled with camping trips, the park, the zoo, aquarium, and any other outdoor activities in the area. We will be attending a Mariner's game for Father's Day. I wish I could have seen Ken Griffey Jr. play one last time, oh well! Enjoy your summer and I will be better about not being so lengthy in my posts, maybe!
