I just realized that it is only 2 more months until Cousin Camp.
I am ready. The boys are ready. They don’t get to see their Texas cousins near enough, I miss my sister-in-laws.
Once a year isn’t enough.
So a few pictures from last year, which I am sure have been posted on here before but since it is raining here today we need a little sun, if only in pictures.
The first night is always my favorite- the sun is setting but the kids don’t care, they hit the beach anyway. The promise of a whole week of beach time ahead.
5 out of 8 of the kids
This guy will be brown as a berry by the end of the week, even with 40+ sunblock. He will also be decked out with a shell necklace, anklet, shorts only the whole time, and a general surfer dude mentality.
One of my favorite pictures of Cousin Joey
Going inside that first night is always hard
Ah, I am so ready.

or more specifically Lake Michigan. It is so hot here, I have been thinking about the lake all day. Love it there. Here are some pictures from our last trip there

Took the boys down to the farm to see the grandparents and get out of town for a few days. Sometimes just a short jaunt down there is all we need to refresh. Now we are back and it’s back to the routine of summer laid back days. It’s crazy how fast summer is going by, the boys will be back in school before we know it and Cole will be starting preschool two mornings a week. He can’t wait, and I have to admit I’m a little excited too.
Here are a few pics from Briarwood Farm

We had a great time in Granville. The historic downtown was converted into a small fair, with live music, rides for the kids and fair food. The fireworks were in a perfect setting, we really enjoyed the whole day.
Jeanies house was amazing. I have never been in a house with a turret. So very cool.
The other cool thing, seeing Amy Butler stand in line for fair food, and then again walking back from the fireworks with her friend and her friends daughter- all holding hands. I tried not to stare.

Found a bolt of this fabric yesterday. It is so yummy I just want to eat it. I can’t decide if I want to put it up for bags or be selfish and save it all for myself.
We are off to Granville today, a small artsy town about 20 minutes outside of town. One of Andy’s co-workers has a big old historic house and has invited us over to watch the fireworks tonight. There is a big festival with lots of things for kiddos so it should be a fun day. Andy’s friend went to high school with Amy Butler (who lives and works in Granville) so maybe if we run into her I can actually meet the fabric goddess herself. Taking the camera, hope to get lots of good pictures.
