For weeks we had been planning a 4th of July camping trip with some of our friends. (nevermind the fact that it has been 100 degrees PLUS here everyday) Natalie talked me into joining them for just one night! I figured I was depriving my child by not going and I could survive one night!
After packing on Friday and getting all ready, we got a call from Jeff and Nat that there had been an emergency and they were leaving the campsite. I called them right back and unfortunately a child was missing in the lake. They had search and rescue there and divers were looking for the child :( I felt so awful that I had joked all week about trying to get out of this trip, but never imagined something like this happening. We have been searching onlin andcant find anything on the story. I'm hoping in my hert of hearts that it means the child was found and is ok.
So needless to say, I had a very sad little boy...but the Grauls invited us all over for the 4th to swim, drink, grill and spend the night!
He loves hanging with West and Sean and swimming now! Brooks throwing Landon (and Landon will tell you that he went in the deep end and swam by himself to the side..he is very proud!!)

Hanging out watching the fireworks!
Nicole, Gena, Natalie and Steph with the flash... and without the flash! (oh boy..we are such nerds!)
The next day we headed to the pool (again) with Bryan, Corky, Gavin and Bryan!
I think I could get used to "residential camping" Air conditioning, bathrooms, no bugs...my kind of camping! lol
We ended up having a wonderful time and met new friends! Landon forgot all about camping by the end of the day, hopefully he will last until fall weather before he asks again! lol
The next day we headed to the pool (again) with Bryan, Corky, Gavin and Bryan!
He is determined to give me a heartattack!!
There you have it...I am just about caught up now! lol (by the time I get around to posting our trip to Lufkin last weekend and our trip to Lafayette this weekend I will be nice and behind again!)
Loving every minute of our summer...hope you all are too!!
