More Vacation Fun

We continue to enjoy our vacation. I stained new bookshelves for the kids and worked on the yard. Rick worked on an old canoe.The kids played in the sun. (They take their responsibilities very seriously!) Katie struggled with nausea after a nap, but she rallied beautifully. We went up to the lake after dinner so the kids could play with their boats, and Katie had a grand time splashing about in her barn boots.

The adventures continue tomorrow. Rick and Joshua have been talking about an early camping trip; we'll have to see what they come up with. Katie and I travel to Burlington for treatment. We hope to get some sense of what awaits us as this next phase of treatment continues. Katie is happy to be making the trip. We'll try to have some fun along the way.

My kids are incredibly good at having fun. They were relaxing with a movie and some ice cream until Katie remembered the leftover pasta in the fridge. She is currently making trips between my chair, where she has stored her pasta, and her father's spot on the couch, where she feeds him olives. She fills her little face with rotini each time she returns. This is good news, as we are trying to help her gain weight. It is especially fun to watch, however, just because she is having such a good time. I love vacation.
