Staying!

So we have had such an amazing time that we are sleeping here one more night! I can't begin to tell you the coolness of the yarn shop I found (THANK YOU Helga!) And the girls have been playing on the playground here for an hour or so. They are very happy and really want to sleep in the tent again! It rained all morning so we played cards in Ed's popup until the yarn shop opened. Chris ran an amazing 18 miles in the rain even though Ed didn't go with him! It just has been great and I am so glad we have these friends and this time together! Anyway, we will leave in the morning and be home early afternoon!

Great Night!

Sorry for the delay-had to charge the Blackberry a bit.
Last night Jillian waited (patiently?) for marshallow roasting and then promptly said, "I want to go to sleep now." And she got in the tent and went to sleep. Seriously. She slept all night without a peep and woke up the whole campsite at 7 AM. Erin played pretend with Isabel and Sophia until 11 PM and then climbed into the tent and went to sleep. Besides the gravel tent site (?!?!) It is a fantastic place and Mark and I slept as well as to be expected. We are headed off to a hike and then check out the craft shops in Brown County. We are the luckiest people in the world.

No faith!!

In response to Valerie's so confident comment...what is floppy is the fly, which we CHOSE to not stake because we may or may not use it, and the stakes we have left are pitiful. The tent is very stable and sturdy. Thank you very much. :) X O

The tent is UP. Mark and I still love (and even like) each other. And the girls are SO excited! I wonder if the neighbors knew about the all evening live entertainment?! Rounds and rounds of various versions of Mary Poppins and other hits, at an *amazing* volume, for your listening pleasure. Acoustics outdoors are just what Jillian needs.

We are here!

We are at Brown County State Park and will now attempt to set up a tent. You may never hear from me again. But you can check back soon just in case.
