Been Home For Awhile!!

We have been back home for about 1 month and it seems like a long time since we have been camping in Willie!!  We are looking forward to a camping trip with our friends (3 other couples) the last weekend this month.  We will be heading to Gettysburg Farm, which is very close to home but part of the Zone Pass with Thousand Trails.  Even though it is only about 25 miles away, Ken and I have not been to the Gettysburg Battlefield since Jr. High, so it is about time we explore that area. Hope to do some bike riding that weekend too!

A lot has been happening since we arrived home including a combined birthday party for our youngest daughter's 2 little girls who turned 3 and 5.  There was also a dance recital for her 5 year old and we enjoyed watching her as much as her 3 year old sister and 3 year old cousin who danced the entire evening in the aisle imitating all the dancers on the stage.  (Fortunately, we sat in the back!)  We also had a wonderful Easter Day at our oldest daughter's home with our entire immediate family there for the celebration and Easter egg hunt.  We had all done an Easter egg hunt the day before at our church, so they had plenty of time "egg hunting".

Now we are looking forward to celebrating my father's 88th birthday this Sunday, tax day, with my mother and my sister and her husband.  Over the last 20 years he has had so many health issues, but no one would ever guess all he has been through.  He just constantly keeps bouncing back like the everyready Bunny!!!  Then next Saturday we celebrate the 1st birthday of our youngest granddaughter, Katelyn.  Wow!  Life is good!!!

We have planned many camping trips for this summer - 2 trips in May (4 or 5 days each), 2 in June, then a 2 week trip and a four day trip in July, followed by a 3 day trip close to home with our 3 oldest granddaughters (the oldest is just 5), and then a 5 day adventure to Cape May.  Should be a fantastic summer!

Celebrating Life Daily!!!
