Semi-Camping




Saturday, May 16th: The weather has been absolutely amazing since the 1st of May! We've had just 2 days of rain this month and the forecast is sunny skies through the rest of the week with temperatures in the low to mid-60s. We definitely couldn't have asked for better weather and we definitely couldn't need it more after the lack of a summer last year followed by a long hard cold winter!! It's certainly been great so far and I think we'll all be happy if the rest of the summer is exactly like our spring. With all the yard work we have to do and the fact that the lows still dip down just around freezing, we haven't ventured out to the campgrounds yet. But, we were invited by our cousin's (Geoff and Jenna) brother/sister in-law to hang out with them at the campground on Ft. Rich and check out their new motorhome. It was really nice and we enjoyed visiting with them. But, the highlight for Owen, was all the dogs!! I think there were 5 total, but I had trouble keeping track. Owen's all time favorite though is George, Geoff and Jenna's Pappion (sp?). The feeling seems mutual, surprisingly enough. George seems to stick close to Owen and tolerates quite a bit, especially for such a little guy. We're not sure if Owen enjoys Geoff and Jenna or George more!!! Unfortunately, we had to head home abruptly as Owen managed to go through 3 sets of clothes while we were there!!!! It was our second day of potty training and Owen managed to hold it for 10 hours!!!! Can we say hard head? Anyway, when he couldn't hold it any longer, it just kept coming!!! The next day he was far easier to convince to use the potty and we haven't had any trouble since....knock on wood....
