Labor Day Weekend! Finally, a much needed and very much anticipated weekend away with my husband and 2 daughters and my college "family." AND of course........IT RAINS!!!!! However, I ought not complain as the rain was much needed, but to go all summer with next to none and NOW, it decides to rain......
However, a little bit of rain, OK, A LOT OF RAIN, did not spoil our weekend getaway. What do you do with three cabins, 1 camper, 10 college friends (2 of which were unexpected visitors but always welcome), 10 kids (plus 3 more with the 2 unexpected college friends--so 13), 1 dog, one set of college friends parents, and A LOT OF RAIN!!!!!???? Well sit back, relax, take a look and enjoy! This blog may not be big on words, but it is big on memories for me and my family.
