Stuff

Man, I was worn down last night. I got the kids showers, and crawled into bed. They slept with me last night and we read two chapters in the goosebumps book. That damn thing is getting on my nerves. It keeps stringing you along. Logan has the croupy sound this morning. I have a sore throat and sinus drainage. I hate when one of the kids has that “barking” like cough. It makes me feel so sorry for them. When he talks he sounds froggy. *sighs*

We had fun fishing yesterday. I had to pull a tick off of Logan’s back. I checked them both thoroughly and then we got showers. Lexie has one small itchy spot that she says is poison ivy, but hell, with all the hiking we did and tall weeds and mud and water…I think we got off easy! I got sunburned on my face and arms but the kids seemed fine. Logan got a little bit of sun on his cheeks. Today after work is housework day. Dishes, put laundry away, clean, pickup, etc…

Fishin'

I got the kids out to Long Run park. They have a lake about 2-3 times the size of community park in New Albany. We fished and hiked and played, picnicked and had loads of fun!!!! We walked around it’s entirety, me carrying a med sized cooler, three chairs. Lexie and Logan both got hooked in the hand and screamed like they were dying. Logan got a tick. Lexie got scratches on her legs. She complained this morning of poison ivy, but all it all they want to go again because they had SO MUCH FUN!!!!

Water-iron

Have you even water-ironed a shirt before??? I did that this morning to my collar and it works good! I wetted the collar and smoothed it out with my fingers, then it dried flat and neat!!! I guess that’s one good thing about driving all the way over to IN and back…time to dry things.

Camping

We took the Frozen Niagra tour. It was 330 steps down into the caves on the third level. The kids had no problem keeping up the 3 hours we were walking, but I was sore that night and still am.

Caterpillars

The kids loved playing with the caterpillars this weekend. There were tons of them. The attendant was nice enough to put me next to the bathrooms. They were clean with flush toilets! Also there was water right by us. The coin-op showers were ok too!

Camping at Mammoth Cave National Park

This past weekend, we camped Friday and Saturday night at Mammoth Cave National Park. The kids had a great time. Here's a few pictures. It's late tonight and I'll write more later...
