Lake Ouachita
Lake Greeson
The Good The Bad and The Ugly....those are nice descriptive words for our vaca!
The Good...
1. Spent quality time w/ my niece...Mia!!! She did everything we did...sweat, sweat, sweat! and didn't complain unlike her aunt.
2. Spent quality time as a family.
3. Spent time at the lake.
4. Got away!
5. Learned things about myself.
6. Ryder started putting his head under water! Started going under to his nose then on the last day went all the way under!
7. Ate steak and baked potato all while camping...mini bbq pit and a microwave!
8. AIR CONDITIONING in the camper!!!!!
9. took a boat ride to a island and brian, mia, and mattie went snorkeling.
10.Overall we had a good time. just wish i had evidence of it.
The Bad...
1. Started the trip off 2 1/2 hours late.
2. Got to the site at midnight and sat up our camper at midnight. all while we hushing and threatening 3 little turkeys that were laughing and giggling and hanging out the car windows as we were trying to sat up the camper in 15 minutes instead of the 30 min it usually takes...at midnight and NOT wake up the whole camp.
3. sat up the camper WITHOUT a flashlight or a knife. but we had scissors.
4. decided after 1 day we wanted to move onto another lake WITHOUT reservations in the SUMMER.
5. drove around for 2 hours looking for another lake that wasn't full up.
6. oh and the lakes were like bath water temperature.
The Ugly...
*Left my keys at the first campsite.
*LEFT OUR $300 DIGITAL SONY CAMERA WITH ALL OUR VACATION PICTURES ON IT AT THE SWIM BEACH - this is the camara we had just found after it had been missing for 3 months.
*lost my temper too much and too quickly.

OH NO!! Your CAMERA!! I hate that for you. :( Y'all were livin' it up in an air conditioned camper though compared to how WE camp.....in a TENT!!
Yeah, well, the keys and camera incident sound all too familiar...I tend to lose or leave things everywhere lately it seems. Hate that for you though. It is a pain. Did you find it yet?
Glad you got to go on a little trip and spend some time with the family. Ahhh...those are nice. The losing the temper sounds all too familiar as well. I've been doing that here or there as well and it takes you by suprise sometimes doesn't it? If you are like me you think, "Where did that come from?" or "Why am I so easily angered?" It's terrible. Makes you want to stay extra close to God so that it doesn't happen so easily and effect the people around you.
I'll TRY and post preg. pics. It's just one of those things I don't have the patience to figure out or mess with lately. Maybe as I start updating my family photo albums I'll get motivated. I want to do that before the sweet boy gets here in a few months.
Love you. Glad you are back.
you know, vaca means "cow" in spanish.
