Fun In West Virginia

We all returned safe from our weekend adventure in West Virginia. You can see from the pictures that Ruston went on the rafting trip and loved it! This year was a little different than past years - no one fell out of the rafts and no one was badly injured. Overall it was a pretty typical ride - through Class 5 rapids that is!! Elli and I hung out at camp and spent time with some other moms and kids, things were really quiet. But that's how I like it. None of us slept very good at night (we stayed two nights) due to the exceptionally loud crickets and not having a single level spot of ground to set up our tent. Having an air mattress was essential for me being 6 months pregnant, but we kept sliding off it. By the second night, Ruston just decided to sleep in the car. I guess we wouldn't have made it as pioneers!

This past week has been really uneventful. I haven't been babysitting nearly as much anymore since the boys went back to school. Ruston is doing great at school and looking forward to all the fun events that come Senior Year. We did get to go on a real date last night - minus Elli! We paid a girl from church to come over while Elli slept and we went down to the campus to play pool with some friends. It was nice having a night off. We'll have to do that more often.

Otherwise, not much is going on. We hope everyone is having a great week. Enjoy these cooler days. It's becoming autumn here and the leaves are starting to turn. Enjoy it where ever you are! The fall never lasts long enough for me!
