Week of Vacation


This week I spent with my family both near and far. We went to Kentucky and visited with my folks. We visited with everyone and while chatting with my cousin, I discovered that he is opening a Halloween store for August through October. Needless to say I was very excited and wanted to help him out as much as possible. As soon as I find out what he needs I think I will try to make him a sign and send down one of my Halloween props to set out infront of his shop.

My boy has turned 7 years old. I know it is hard to believe. It seems like yesterday that I was changing his diapers. Brando, Yuri and I went to Mammoth Cave to spend the day going through a 2 hour 2 mile hike that took us 360 feet below the surface. We all had a good time crawling through Fat Mans Misery. We got to look down the bottomless pit and climb an underground fire tower. It was a very neat and educational tour. Yuri had a really good time.

We then came back to my grandmothers house to have a surprise birthday party and rides around the yard in a ballon covered golf cart. Yuri made out like a bandit with money and wants to save it for Disney this fall.

Today we ventured back home only stopping to try to get a cache we struck out on on the way down. Yin slept the whole way home. She is such and angel when she is sleeping.

Tomorrow we plan on doing some landscaping around the new patio and cleaning out the garage. It looks like a bomb has gone off inside it. Well enough for now. Hope everyone had a nice week.
