Long weekend fun!!!

Well, we are home from the Lake now, all burnt and ready for a nap. This weekend was so much fun.

We packed up the vehicle and headed out to Slave Lake, my favorite place to be. It had been really hot all day on Friday so we were hoping that the weather would carry up north to the lake. Aaron, Amy and I arrived at around 8ish and mom and dad arrived very shortly afterwards. It was so great to see my parents again.

We unpacked and I started to pump up the air mattress that I would be using. Air pumps kind of suck. A lot of time and energy went into blowing it up, so it was nice to set up my bed. It was in the middle of the living room, but I didn't care.

Eva and Dan came as well, and we all thought they would be bringing a van to sleep in, but they didn't. All that time and energy was not spent on making a nice bed for me, but for them. I was a little mad about it because I had to sleep on the couch, but I soon got over that. It helped a little that the air mattress started leaking, so I had to smile a little over that. The couch wasn't so bad and it makes more sense for them to sleep on it then me.

Any way, the weekend was fantastic. Saturday the weather called for cloudy with periods of sun and that's what we got. We went down to the beach and laughed and talked and it was so great to hang out with my sisters and mom again.

The weekend was filled with pie irons (which are tasty sandwiches made in a camp cooker over a fire) and hotdogs. Lots of candy from Denmark and peanut butter cups.

Sunday was beautiful. It was sunny with bits of cloud. I used sunscreen but missed most of the top of my back. It is now a lovely shade of bright pink/red and it hurts when my shirt rubs on it.

Today is was cloudy and a bit rainy so we all woke up and were hanging out in the cabin. Dad made us fried eggs and toasts and we laughed some more. Then we packed up and are now at Amy and Aarons home.

It feels great to have a shower and be clean again. I wish Tyler could have been with us at the lake. It's always better when he is there.

The plan for tonight is simple. Aaron has a baseball game so we will go watch that, although I have a headache and am really tired (I think we all are though). I think for dinner we will have leftover hotdogs and mac and chesse.

Its going to be a great week. I get to see friends and go to a cousins wedding.

Tyler, I love you and miss you so so much. Only 6 more days and I will be with you again.
Love you tons
