Last Full Week of Summer

Friday Daddy worked in the early morning and then came and picked up the campers and I. We went down to Grandma and Papa's house and washed their fifth wheel camper top to bottom! Daddy then cooked salmon for the adults, while I made hot dogs and mac and cheese for the campers, and Grandma made the sides for the adults. Everyone got to eat what they liked! When we got home we watched Guardians of the Galaxy 2 together as a family, though Peanut slept through half of it and Daddy had to miss part of it as well. Saturday, shortly after waking up, we all headed down to Grandma and Papa's house again so that Daddy could wax one side of the massive camper. We came home early evening and we treated the campers to some McDonald's for supper (Daddy and I ate fried zucchini later in the evening). We again watched Guardians of the Galaxy 2 so that everyone could see the entire movie and then it was off to bed.


On Sunday Daddy and I were cuddling still half asleep when Papa called. There was rain expected for Monday and Tuesday and he wanted a few more spots on the camper caulked before then. So, Daddy got up and took himself down to Grandma and Papa's house (timing it so that he'd get there right about when they returned from church) just as the campers were waking up. Everyone did their chores right away and ate breakfast, including me (vacuuming is NOT my favorite thing and neither is laundry, but both got done). I then took a little while on Facebook to talk to family who live in other states, updated this blog, and crocheted another washcloth for the craft fair. Daddy was home around 1:30 (yes, the campers and I took this week off of church ... Peanut's sinuses were bothering her first thing in the morning anyways) and after he changed his clothing we all left to go to a family get together about half an hour away. Good food and good times were had by all and then we came home. After such a large lunch (that was around three-thirty anyways) we opted for a fend for yourself type of supper so that if anyone was hungry they could have what they wanted. Medicine was handed out all the way around and then it was bed time.

With my flash on with the
glow sticks...


Monday we didn't really do much, Daddy took the day off of work and we all just relaxed around the house for the most part. We did take back a little scrap that we'd picked up over the weekend from one of Daddy's friends. But, for the most part we were at home. Tuesday morning Noni came over and we watched some movies together after eating a McDonald's lunch. We watched Nine Lives and Moana. Both movies were good. After Noni left and Daddy got home from work he and I ran some errands but then came home and relaxed for the rest of the evening ... leftovers for supper (since I'd made a giant pan of tuna noodle casserole for supper on Monday).

On Wednesday we started our day out with a doctor appointment for Peanut. Turns out that Peanut is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts! Epi pens ordered with the pharmacy, calls and texts made to family members who needed to know (where she visits most and this could be a problem, but other family members have tree nut allergies {and other allergies} as well), and then I quickly updated this post to the point when I got off of the phone. Daddy went to work for awhile and the campers did their chores while I did some housework ... yay, laundry ... UGH! Then I crocheted until Daddy got home and we went to pick up the epi pens, return the movies that were rented, and grab some milk for the house. We did a supper of stir fry because it was quick and easy.

Thursday Daddy went to work in the morning and then the girls each took a bubble bath. I did laundry and crocheted more washcloths. Our day was spent relaxing, some of the time playing outside and some of the time watching YouTube. When Daddy got home we spent some time watching TV together and we had breakfast for supper...

Friday we went back down to Grandma and Papa's house (Daddy took the day off) and we finished waxing the camper. Well, Daddy did most of the work. We were there from early morning until early evening and picked up tacos on the way home for supper. The girls were given their medicine and then they packed (early) for our planned adventure for the long weekend ... I'll tell you about that next week!

I haven't taken a lot of pictures this week as I've been super busy (didn't put everything of what I personally did this week in the blog) ... but some weeks are like that.

  2. So sorry to hear about Peanut's allergy, especially on top of all the other issues she deals with. We've also been trying to savor the last week of summer before school starts, but this Michigan weather isn't cooperating and seems ready for it to be autumn already.

    1. Peanut sure has a full plate of problems. I actually am enjoying the cooler weather ... not so much the rain but the rest of it.

  3. Every week is busy, right?! That's how it seems for me anyway. Sounds like a fun time watching movies - we still haven't seen Moana, but I want to. :-) Thanks for linking up!
