Brainerd was soooo much fun!! Yesterday I got up around 930 and went upstairs and we all just visited and hung around for a bit. The Shobe’s arrived around noon and we all went outside and talked and played with the dogs. We went out on the lake around oneish. Barb, Jane, Patrick, Thomas, my mom, my dad, and I all went on the pontoon while everyone else went on the speedboat and went either tubing or watched the tubers. I read, talked, and swam out on the lake. Most of the time it was cloudy though L

When we got back in the adults went and got ready to go to dinner, and told Sam, Ally, and me what we would be doing for babysitting. Then left around 615. While we babysat we went outside a couple times, John worked on his lego helicopter, and Thomas and PJ played with cars and puzzles. Thomas went to bed around 730 but PJ and John stayed up until around 930, 10ish. For dinner we made macaroni and cheese…yummy!!

The parents got home around 11 and they brought home ice cream so we had ice cream and brownies. After that I sat in the living room and read while everyone was talking, around midnight I finally went to bed--soooo tired!!

This morning I woke up at 850 because snickers was whining. I thought it was like noon so I was FrEaKiNg out!! So I brought snick upstairs and then went back to bed. I actually got UP at around 10, still tired and wanted to sleep, haha, but everyone was being really loud upstairs.

We were planning on going out on the lake for a bit again but it was storming so we couldn’t. For breakfast we had fruit, bacon, and a special breakfast bake Barb made. It was pretty good Then we chatted for a bit and I read and played legos for a bit with John. The Shobes had to leave at 11 because Sam had a VBS training at 1. We left around noon, and now we’re on the road!! Also, the Shobes and the Kenisons are coming up to our house for Labor Day Weekend! Yayyy! We’re inviting the Tibers also but they probably wont be able to go
