Soccer, Guys/Girls Weekend, camping

We are in the midst of soccer season.  The hottest sports season there is. :)  Both kids are playing this year on the Marlins team.  They are both really enjoying it.  Landon loves scoring goals and runs after that ball like crazy.  Emerson is more reserved and doesn't kick real hard, but she is always right there in the action.  I need to remember to get a picture of these two before a game, but this is usually what they look like after:


 We had our annual Guys/Girls Weekend mid-July.  The boys went up to the U.P. in Michigan (Matt, Landon, Mikel, Gunnar, Amos, Tyler, John, Greyson) to stay in a cabin and fish.  It was chilly for them and rained a little, but it sounds like they caught a lot of fish and had fun.

 Emerson and I traveled with mom and dad down to Columbus, Indiana to stay with John and Nancy Mathis at their lake cottage.  The Clarks drove down as well and we also got to see Justin, Laura, Ruth, and Sarah Burdick since they live nearby.  We went out on the boat several times and Emerson tubed a TON!  She loved it and didn't even mind when her Uncle Steven made her fall in the water. :)  We had awesome weather for being at the lake and great hosts to make our weekend fun!



Sweet, baby boy!
 We just got home today from a camping trip.  It was the first time I've used the RV this year!  We tried a new campground, Eby Pines in Bristol.  It was a nice area, but the sites are small and close together.  It was a little different for us because there were several RVs there not being used.  I guess you can get a season pass and come stay as much as you want.  It was kinda funny because we saw people watering their lawn, cutting grass, and keeping a garden. Things we don't normally see when we camp.  There was a nice sized pool with 2 water slides and of course, we forgot to pack Emmy's suit.  Luckily right before we left, I grabbed 2 for Landon, so he had to share! :)




LOVE smores!
 The kids had the best time catching fireflies.  We don't normally let them stay out that late (9:00) so it was a rare treat.  They named each bug and tried to catch as many as they could. :)
 We also rode a bike trail from Eby Pines to Bonnyville Mill.  It was about a mile, but seemed a LOT longer on the way there.  The kids thought the old mill was really cool and wanted to explore the whole thing.

 They did great on the ride and didn't complain, even though there were some tough spots.
When we got back, we jumped in the pool.  Both days were in the 90s and humid.  We were glad for the air conditioning in the RV.  We were also thankful that a storm blew through and cooled things off for our second night.
We would probably go back to the campground again, but Matt said NOT on a weekend.  I could see that pool being packed with campers.  It was really nice during the week.
