How much summer can you cram into one week?

Well with only one weekend left until school starts we had a lot of activities left that we wanted to cram in, not to mention school shopping. So Friday we did the school shopping and I have to admit the kids did really well for a six and half hour trip.

Saturday was camping we went up to Payson Lakes. This was intended to be a quick up and back trip and it was. We left my moms around 4:00 and were back to our house by 10:00 Sunday morning.
We hiked down to the lake and the kids found a stick that had a fishing line and a bobber on the end of it and tried to catch a dead fish that was in the water. Corey went off and picked me and Gussy some wild daisy's and told us both he loved us the most. He is such a sweet kid.
Macie even learned to tie her shoes. She was the first kid to pass Grandma Gussies summer graduation program. (tie your shoes and tie them tight so you aren't slopping around in untied shoes all day:))
Grandma and Corey serenaded us in some lovely campfire tunes, Burning Ring of Fire and Hey Jude. I promised I wouldn't put the video on, but it is worth a few laughs. Just imagine.

Tonight we are off to 7-peaks and tomorrow is back to school night. Then finally the day has come that peace and quite will sweep through my house again. A bitter sweet day.
