The Year of the Bandaid

Let me start by saying that this is the second time that I'm having to type all of this out. My head is about to pop off my shoulders because I had it all done and then when I added the slide show, all my text disappeared. Please enjoy this!! UGGHHHH!! Okay, the year of the bandaid....that is how I liken myself to this year at camp. You know how when it's time to take a bandaid off (and those that are hairy will understand this better than those that aren't) you know that you just have to clench your jaw, close your eyes real tight and just get it over with? And then it only hurts bad for a few seconds and then whew! you're done. I will say that 4/5ths of my family had an amazing time! I'm the 1/5th that squinted my eyes, clinched my jaw, and waited for the pain to be over. In all fairness, I knew this year would be like this so at least it wasn't a surprise. It wasn't that any of the kids were "bad", but nursing a 3 month old and being on his nap schedule pretty much consumes the whole day. And it was hot, and if you know me at all, I am allergic to hot. Anyway, the positive to this was that I did get to spend time with friends most nights after all the kids were in bed and I also got to spend two weeks with my sisters and brothers in law and their kids. It was a great mini-family reunion! Anyway, enjoy the slide show and enjoy the rest of the summer...it's passing very quickly and before I know it we'll be walking Elle to 1st grade!
