Vacation begins August 23, 2010

What a busy busy time it has been! Stefan is finishing up his final couple of days of day camp. He came back last Friday from Toronto Canada. This week has been good times for him also.....H2O waterpark on Monday, Tubing down the Delaware on Tuesday, Camping overnight at Jenny Jump State Park on Wednesday and Thursday! Tomorrow is his last day of camp....where did the summer go?
We had some sad news.... however good news for our family......my sister in California Eileen, had her mother-in-law living with them since Allie & Ryan's wedding back in May. She passed away last Saturday.....95 years old. God Bless her. They are coming back east for the funeral which will be a Friday night viewing and a Saturday morning funeral! Saturday is also Dad's 88th Birthday....so she will be home with her family for all. Her oldest daughter Christy is pregnant and due in January.....I have not seen her since her wedding three years ago....it will be good to be with family. Sad way to get everyone together but when you have a big family that's the way it goes! I did the funeral liturgy for them and made a program....hopefully it will be okay....hard to plan for someone else, but happy to be able to help them out! The family gets in late tonight.....so I feel as though I helped.
I've been busy using the peaches we picked on Sunday.....yummy peach pies, yummy peach cobblers.......busy using the summer squash from the garden.....made a huge batch of Squash soup....which will be yummy for the cooler weather in the fall! Made a butternut, sage and pasta recipe last night and it was so good! Leaving work shortly....off to shop, clean the house, get my nails done, water the plants, get Dippy's pills, stop the mail......oh yeah and a wake and funeral.......
I do think I'm going to need this vacation sooner than later!
