I get to relax some

Well I did get to do a little bit of relaxing over the weekend.  Spent Friday evening in the hot tub which was really nice.  Mark and I haven't been able to go in it in quite awhile since it has been so hot.  It cooled down nicely around here though.  We had lots of rain over the weekend, which we needed very badly.  The water level in the lake was so low, I don't think I have ever seen it that low.  I went to bed early Friday night and slept till 9am on Saturday morning.

We went shopping for clothes for John and Josh's senior pictures, which are tomorrow.  I am so excited to get their pictures done.  My babies..............seniors!!  Wow.  They sure did look nice in the clothes they picked out.   They look very grown up and handsome in the suits.  They picked out the same color suits (black) but they finally decided on different shirts and ties.   I really didn't want them to be exactly the same for thier pictures!  I have the day off tomorrow to take them to get thier pictures done.  They are doing inside and outside shots so the session will probably last close to three hours.  I wonder if they will be able to handle having thier pictures taken for that long?  I will let ya know how they did with that one.

Sunday we went to Campers World and to Cabella's.  Mark has been wanting to take me to Cabella's for years and we finally went.  It was a amazing.  It is a store dedicated to outside activiteis.........hunting, camping, boating....  we bought a new tube for the boat.  I can't wait to try it out.  It is a two seater!  Should be a blast.  The store was wild though.  They have so many animals that have been stuffed there, ones that are real.  I took picutes inside the store of them.  I will post them on here tomorrow.  They even had an elephant.   We also bought a few little signs to hang inside the camper.  One says " an old moose and the one he makes moosic with lives here!!  The other one says "we are happy campers"  I just loved them and had to get them.  We also bought a set of dishes for the camper, they have mooses on them also.  Can you tell my husband loves moose??  LOL

I have to work at the MIchigan State Fair tonight for Waldonwoods, acutally have to work there for the next 10 days.  I guess I am going to be one tired girl when the fair ends.  I like working the fairs though.  I ususally only work three nights a week for three hours at Waldonwoods but I love doing the fair stuff so I am going to work each night and on the weekends during the day.  You can make alot of money at the fairs, that must be why I like it!  Gotta pay for those Talladega tickets that I got Mark for his birthday!  Well time to get going!

geesh, the state fair, I don't think I've been since 1987!  wow, that can't even be right!  We're negotiating for a Cabella's to go in not 3 miles from my house.  I'm not sure if I'm excited or scared!  I know if it does go in my typical travel plans will change a little bit, especially on the weekends!  I'm glad you got in the hot tub, it sure was nice to have that cool down, wasn't it?  Although here we are back to hot and humid.

My Hubby loves Cabela's.  They just built one about 10 minutes from our house!

Hope you are having a nice holiday weekend.  Soon maybe hot tub weather will show up.  Cabella's sounds interesting but not one we would likely go to being outdoorsy and all.  LOL  I guess you haven't posted b/c of the Waldonwoods   at the fair.  You are probably ready for a break.  
Relaxing here this weekend.  Can you tell?  I am getting around to all the journals on my favorites list.  LOL
