Birthday camp out on the lake.....

This the view of the back yard after the camp out.
John stayed busy giving tube rides.

The water trampoline was a big hit too.
Haley's Sponge Bob cake
The twins, Haley and Kierstin, had a great time at their camp out birthday party on our lake. Sherry and Keith set up tents and we had a fire pit on the beach. The girls made "smoores" and roasted marshmellows. Though Sherry finally had to put her foot down and tell the girls to go to sleep around 2:30; they were up and ready for breakfast at 7:30 am. They had lots of fun playing in the lake and especially enjoyed having John pull them around the lake behind his boat. The water trampoline was also a big hit, even after the trampoline part tore loose. I had made three cakes; a mermaid cake, a cookie cake and a Sponge Bob cake. By the end of the party on Sunday afternoon all the cakes were eaten, along with a ton of other food. Those girls can eat! There were sixteen twelve year old girls who kept us all busy. We were also dog sitting two Papillons for our friends, Todd and Brenda, who were in Los Vegas for a week. Mona and Leo were sure happy to see them when they returned on Sunday. With Reno added to the mix we had six dogs. Good thing we have a large yard.
