Vosslings Adventure Part 2- Day 26

Day 26

Wednesday, July 13, 2016      Lazy River

Today we decided to split up for a while. Josh and I took the little boys to the water slides and lazy river.  Charlie really wanted to show Colin how much fun the waterslides were. Josh and I watched them from the bench at the bottom of the slides. After about 15 minutes Josh and I were dripping from sitting in this heat. It is so humid and hot here. We jumped in the lazy river and went around and around as the boys enjoyed the slides. They joined us in the river for a while and went back and forth on the slides. It felt so nice to just float and be carefree.

One of the cool things about being at this park was you wear electronic wristbands to get in and out of the activities and to pay for things so you don't have to carry around money. You just scan your bands and it charges your camping bill. Well, we went to the snack bar to get a lemon ice and after we got our drinks we went to pay and none of us had a balance on our bands. OHHHH.... you have to put a certain amount of money ON it before you use it! HA!! How embarrassing. We thought it was like a credit card but obviously NOT. So Josh left us there and ran over to the RV to get some money. Gotta laugh at yourself sometimes!

When we got home, Carmen and Chandler were shortly behind us. We sat and snuggled up and watched the movie "Big." Great movie!

The boys enjoyed their free time riding their bikes around the park before the sun went down. There is so much going on there at night. They enjoyed being part of the crowd.

I walked out to check on them just as the sun was setting. The view of the sunset from the beach was amazing.

Day 26 Park it in Ramsey

Day 26

Park it in Ramsey

July 3, 2015

Today we had to pack everything up after sleeping in the RV in the driveway at the machine shed at the Family Farm. We needed to get it hooked back up to power instead of running the generator. We made arrangements to stay at the local Ramsey State Park. Josh had to watch the kids, prep for his day at the reunion as well as pack up the RV to move it. I had a wedding shower and baby shower to attend for 2 lovely ladies. I had a wonderful time visiting with all the wonderful Aunts and Cousins at the double shower. Time got away from us and Josh and I were down to the wire when it came to moving the RV and rushing back in time for the family photo and lunch. Off we went...

The Park was beautiful and full of Forth of July Campers. There were kids all over the park riding bikes, playing games, playing on the playground and even made a makeshift lemonade stand. It was the most festive park we have been to yet. Everyone there was gearing up for a pretty awesome 4th of July celebration. After we wiggled our way into our camping spot, we ran back to the reunion in time for lunch but unfortunately we missed the family picture.

Later we did some fishing, ceramic art, games, pogo stick contest and many other activities. Tonight was the big night for Fireworks. We took a 20 minute drive to the next town over called Pana. They have a great Firework show for the 4th of July. We all arrived at the Pana Park where we played at the playground, played frisbee and chatted amongst ourselves while eating sack lunches waiting for dusk. As dark was upon us, we drove over to a family friends house where we packed their back yard for a spectacular firework show. It was a blessed day.
