Well since July 4th oas on a tuesday this year, we dicided to go camping in St. Regis with Aaron's parents. There was a small capmsite that we went to and set up camp at on Saturday. Aarons Parents Karen and Gary and also Garrett (Aarons cousin) Came Saturday evening with there RV (whoo hoo roughing it lol). Saturday night we sat and visited till ot got dark and late. THe next morning we all had breakfast and ran the the grocery store for some food stuff and Aaron Garrett and Gary all had a water fight with buckets of ice cold water. Both Karen and I got a bucket each It was truely cold. Then toward the end of the water fight the Nordstoms (friends of Aaron's parents) joined us. They were going to be staying in a hotel in St. Regis. It was nice to have them there. They were alot of fun to chat with.

The Nordstroms (Steve and Michelle) brought with them thier mini poddle, Lilly. THe girls were absolutly crazy over this dog. But she certianly was not crazy over them. She had not been exposed to kids often so Michelle asked the girls to be really careful around her. They were for the most part. There where 2 times that the girls had a confrontation with Lilly. One was that Cherise was in the RV and went to go under the table to pet Lilly and she went after her face barking a growling (no damage to Cherise). Well that sent Cherise out crying. The second one was when it was dark out on our last night there and Maddy was picking up paper fromt he ground in a dark spot and she must have stepped on lilly or something because all the sudden we hear barking then crying. Maddy got bit on one of her fingers. IT was sad but during both Michelle felt soo bad that it had happened. But My kids are not around dogs and the dog is not around kids so it just was not a good combination i guess. Both the dog and the kids survived hehe.

but all in all we had a blast. The girls loved sleeping all together in the tent and going swimming and getting spoiled with candy and toys lol. But now with me and the girls back at preschool we are learning hard lessons about the difference between good and bad actions. Maddy and Cherise learned that hard today as I will post about later.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!!!!
