Hello Momma ~ I just wanted to say how much I miss ya. I hope to hear from you real soon. So what kind of fun thngs hapopened with your summer. It is getting colder and colder by the day here in MI. All the leaves are coming off the trees and I actauly get to see them in my new yard because I have trees now, where before I didn't. So I am enjoying my new house but not really looking forward to the snow. Even though I know we should enjoy all the seasons. Blessings, Bonnie RIC

This is my daughter with her baby bunny, we had to hand feed 6 of these guys cause the mamma didn't know what to do or didn't want to. Now they are getting big. We have a sign out in front of our house so pray that we can sell them! Then I am off to MI in a few weeks to visit my Mom and sister. My poor hubby won't have much vacation as he just started last year at his work. Well, hope you enjoy vacation with your husband off and get some nice time together and with the kids. Blessings!LisaAnn RIC

Hi Mommasmitty,

Oh boy, we had to cancel our camping this weekend, our new but used van needed a hitch and needed to be special ordered so this ran into late into the week. The site was so perfect, right on the water and now the whole summer is booked for our perfect site. I am sad. Oh well, I'll be dreaming about that place for a while. Not too fun camping in too much rain. The Adirondacks of NY are pretty though and lots of hiking and canoing too. Blessings!!LisaAnn

PS, just wanted to send you a pic of my daughters

Hi girls! just barely time to jot a couple of lines  so yes, history mom, the route is a blessing -kinda bummed about having less hours but it will all work out- I'm sure. Jealous that you got to go camping but not jealous about your weather conditions!                             To flower petals: I'll pray for you. To Lisa Ann: Haven't got to go cmaping yet. Either too wet or too cold still.I think this weekend will be ok if it doesn't rain again.I think I forgot how to get ready in a few minutes like I was by last fall...... It will come back ........ ??????? We camp at our lake lot ina gated community-at Linn Valley Lakes,around LaCyne,Ks.- it wants to be a city and the ones who want to keep it simple are fighting with thwe "city folk"- oh brother- I just wasnt to go camping!At least two times a year we pull up stakes and go to different lakes,though. Gotta run! see ya all!

How is the camping? We will attempt it at the end of May. It's way too cold here in upstate NY. The Adirondacks are beginning to thaw pretty well, but still alot of snow. It was a snowy winter! Where do you all camp, Your favorite places and why, Mommasmitty? My 17 and 20 year old come once in a while, but my 11 and 7 yr old love it. The only sad part is that the water is so cold well into the summer. Just need to be tough!

Blessings to your Springtime

wherever you may be!

It must be in the water or something. I haven't had the energy to do much on line other than to check my email. He got called back to Tyson and is on B shift. Saturday night he didn't get home til 7:30 Sun morn. He had another interview today but of course don't know anything. We are having another round of State Assessments at work, a bad situation with Mother.....

Yes, the Olpe/Hartford road is about 3 mi from my house. Madison and Hamilton just on down from there. I have not  been to Gridley but know where the turn off is.

I guess we should pray for each other til we get straightend out. I just know that I am not old enough to feel this old.

Hello!  I read on Bonnie's page that you got a new route.  I'm so happy for you!  Sounds much better.  Hey, we took our popup out last Friday.  It got down into the teens and our furnace wouldn't kick on!  We had a couple of space heaters - but boy was it frosty!  I was so proud of our kiddos as they never complained, despite the fact we all couldn't feel our toes in the a.m.!  We were visited by a racoon right outside our door several times in the night, and our puppy proved to live up to his name, "Camper!" We're planning on a Spring Break camping trip to Mammoth Caves, Kentucky.  Looking forward to it!

Hope all is well.  God Bless You!  And thank you Jesus for your new route, Amen?

Hello ~ I seen you were on and just wanted to pop in and see how things were going for you and your family. I am so ready for camping but I am not sure how much we will get to do this year. We have lots of things going on this summer. It is raing like cats and dogs over here in MI. Thunder Storms!  It is actually very nice to hear the rain and not the snow. Please let me know how you are. God Bless, Bonnie RIC

How fun! To meet another Kansan. I hope to work out logistics of meeting this summer :)

I'm not much of a camper. I like my 4-poster too much. If you get to go, have lots of fun.

We are on Spg Bk. When we go back, the days will be longer as we have to make up a snow day.

Take Care!

Hey, did you go camping or what?!

My husband and I went to a RV show just for kicks yesterday and I thought of you!  We're actually getting rain today which is far better than more snow. 

Hope to hear from you soon!

God Bless,

Mary
