Vacation to Texas

We have made it home from Texas. Tyler was up at camp with my dad and Scott while us three girls stayed home. It was the coolest I have ever seen Texas in the middle of the summer. It was feeling the affects from the hurricane so there was a lot of rain. Even at camp, it was cooler. It stayed in the 80's and sometimes cooler. 2 years ago, Tyler was up at camp and it was 115 degrees. A big difference!

It was fun being just the girls though. ManDee had to work 3 days that week, but then on Friday we went to meet the boys. I was hoping to take Cameron swimming for the first time, but it was so rainy that we couldn't. Hopefully soon we will be able to go.

While in Texas, my mom taught me how to can chicken. It was a lot easier than I thought. I have made jam, but this is totally different. I wish I had the utensils to make more chicken, but at least I have some for now. Maybe one of these days when I save up the money I can get one. We will see.

Cameron had a lot of fun with everyone. He loved getting spoiled. Aunt ManDee even bought him an airplane outfit to wear on the way home. Everyone at the airport commented on how cute he was.

Now we are home and back into reality. We got home and our carbon monoxide alarm was going off! What a way to start off! The fire department had to show up and everything. Cameron sure love the big red truck though. That is his new favorite color, it seems like. We are just glad that it was just the batteries and nothing serious.

As much as we had fun with family, we are glad to be home and in our own beds; just in time to clean and get ready for my parents to come into town :)
