Exciting News

by Jewel

 

Last Tuesday was the second-to-last Kaiser Lake Day, and we had a pretty good turnout. We kids had a lot of fun on this giant tube Beth lets us use. 

 

 

Dan&Anne got here at about seven o'clock then Tuesday evening. On Wednesday, Kate had Cason and Clay with us down at the lake again, and Sarah had Kruz.

 

Since Dan&Anne were at the elder conference, we had Amber with us Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, which was a lot of fun.

 

On Thursday, we did an Escape Room at the Morton Library, and Kinsey went with us as well. We didn't quite make it, but it was a lot harder than last year; and the lady told us only a few parties had made it in the allowed 45 minutes.

 

It was still a lot of fun though.

 

Then, down at the lake there were two little racoons!

We had the Keevers over that day as well, and Kinsey was still with us too.

 

Josh wasn't there though because he was with U. Mike, A. Joyce, Isaiah, and Elijah at a Lego display at the Peoria Riverfront Museum.

 

 

*thanks A. Joyce for the px!*

 

Amber was glad to see her parental unit Thursday night.

 

That night we camped out in the tent in the back yard. It was a lot of fun. Friday after tent cleanup we went down to the lake again. Echo, Kiowa, and Flint, and A. Sarah came too.

 

That evening Levi&Echo and Jesse&Lucy came over, and Katie had the Sauder kids and Miles here too.

 

 

 

 After awhile Kate took the Sauder/Rockes home and Josh started a fire. We all sat around it for awhile and some of us did a few bottle rockets. Flint looks pretty mesmerized.

 

And then Jesse and Lucy had some very exciting news for us!!

 

 

We're so happy for you Jesse and Lucy!
