Day 8

Watching Tommy (a new friend) drive his rc boat

It was cool and windy this morning. Grandma came to sit and visit with us. Adam was up first and we took a bike ride and then played Uno. After breakfast the boys went across the road to play. We sat and visited with Grandma and Grandpa. Then we took a walk around the campground. We went to the dock to do some fishing until lunchtime. Adam let Daddy ride his scooter so he could walk with me again. Daddy had a piece of chalk and left us notes to read as we walked back. Adam couldn't wait to see each note. It was raining so we played Uno in the dining fly. Adam had took Louie over to stay with Grandma and Grandpa while we fished. Grandpa brought Louie back because he was getting into his pop tarts. It rained from noon until dinnertime. We hung out mostly in the dining fly and played games. Jared taught Jacob how to play solitaire and Jacob loved it. We also played dice, checkers, and tic tac toe. Jacob went into the tent for a little while and did some reading. We took a couple walks in the rain with our umbrellas. The other day a man driving a huge bus camper handed Eli a new box of crayons out his window. Eli did some coloring with his new crayons. We made pizza's again for dinner. After dinner we went for a walk with Grandma around the campground. Adam and Eli carried their bears and walked with us. Jacob rode slowly by us on his bike. Back at camp we started the fire. It was cool and windy this evening. The boys made s'mores for everyone. Dennis and Marsha also joined us by the fire. We went to bed around 10:00. Daddy started reading Call of the Wild.
