We are once again headed up to go camping with our friends the Jones. The kids have been excited all day. I think they're more excited to be with their friends than they are about camping but that's OK.
Check out Taylor's cool hat. He insists on wearing it despite our protests.

We got back from Chicago on Monday. Olivia sprained her ankle at uncle Randy's rock gym which made traveling through the airport difficult. Also, Taylor left on an early morning flight to go to work so I was on my own. But we made it. We spent most of the time at Nana and Tata's lake. It was 100 degrees most of the time so we played in the water. Whoever wasn't in the water chatted in the shade of tables and umbrellas. Poor Nana is pretty far gone with dementia. She referred to Tata/her husband as "that man who stays here". She's 84 and he's 86 and they celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary this summer. They've both lived a long and happy life, most of it together. I think there were about 35 people all together between cousins, aunts, uncles, inlaws, etc. Now we're planning a reunion with my family in Nashville in December.
