Hello! I am back! Now, I bet you are wondering how my vacation went… well, allow me to enlighten you.
#1. The weather report told us it was going to be sunny for the whole week we’d be there. (We were at Lake Chelan Washington for those of you who are wondering.) Well, the first three days we were there, a little bit of sun and high temperatures but… there were thunderstorms. Loud thunderstorms. Around the times we were trying to get some shut eye lighting would flash across the sky followed by a boom of rolling thunder. Yeah. But it was defiantly fun to watch. 🙂
#2. A flat tire. Never had experienced a flat tire before, now I can say I have. Thankfully it didn’t jerk us off the road and we were on the edge of the town we were going to when we pulled over. So while dad and my younger brother were changing the tire, we girls got to walk into town and window shop while we waited. So it turned out alright.
#3. Went out on our boat a lot. I love boating; we have a 1972 ski boat. It’s an oldie, but a goodie. 😉 We went to a picnic area a few miles up the lake for lunch one day and on the way back the lake got so rough we had waves crashing over the side! It really gives you a new understanding about the Sea of Galilee in the Bible. Storms really do come up that fast on large bodies of water.
Also go to knee board! The first time it was way too rough to kneel on the board and I ended up getting my elbow cut up a bit, but then we got up early enough to beat the wind. I really enjoy knee boarding. It had been a while since I had knee boarded in a LONG time, let’s just say I had trouble moving the next day.
#4. I broke my sunglasses. 😦 My favorite pair of sunglasses I bought with a gift card from my graduation. It was really sad. But thankful I found another pair that I liked so I didn’t have to worry about getting a head ach from sun glare. (I have really sensitive blue eyes.)
#5. My little sister is now sixteen! AAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow. That’s just weird.
#6. I got tan! I know, it sounds really lame, but, for a very pale blond like me, who for years only “pinked”, I’m finally a real tan. Yes I know, dumb thing to get excited about. 😛
#7. I found a cool toe ring on the beach. I kept it and wear it as a pinky ring.
#8. I bought a really cool three headed dragon hatching from its egg figure. (That was a long title.) The dragons green and I think looks really cute. 🙂
Well, guess that about all the really interesting stuff. Oh! I finally chased Stephen down and drug him back to Sherwood! I think there just might be a SoS post this Wednesday! 🙂
Thanks for reading.
God bless,
