October 25, 2024-Month of Camping: Trip 4

(click for today's pictures)

Today was a pretty great day too. Robby was stirring first, and then we laid in bed for a good while. He did some work while I read some of my books. We took Bentley on a little walk around the campground which completely tired her out. 

Then we made some cornflake cookies. We could have done this in the camper, but instead we did our cooking outside today. There was so much more room, but I did have to be on bug patrol. However, bugs do just add protien.

After we finished with the cookies, we took Keaton and met Reagan at Kroger. There Reagan pumped gas-probably for the first time. This is a skill she needs to know, but we told her that if she comes home occasionally, Robby will pump her gas for her. 

Yesterday, we tried to vote in the middle of West Little Rock, and the line was pretty long. Today, we drove by that polling place, and the line was much longer. So we opted to go to Shorter College across the river to early vote today. There was no wait-the people were happy to see us! It was wonderful.

This was not Reagan's first time to vote, but this was her first time to vote for the president so it was picture worthy. And since Reagan was doing some sibling drop offs and pick ups tonight, Robby even swung by Chipotle for her a lunch. Keaton did get some too. 

Keaton went home with Reagan and when Campbell and Graham made it home from work, Reagan took both girls to different parties. Reagan has to write a paper about her she served others-and ding, ding, carting her sisters around will work for that. I was ready to take them and pick them up if she had other plans, but she just ran to play pickleball for a little bit.

And yes, Campbell worked today-(7 hours Monday, 7 hours Tuesday, 4 hours Wednesday, 4 hours Thursday, and 4 hours Friday-28 hours this week. Today was her first time to work at the photography studio, and she spent her time cutting pictures. She is going to work there 2 days next week, and hopefully can work more when they need her again. And in case you are wondering, her work on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will be paid with gift cards, Thursday's work is paid in camp money, and today's work will be a real check!

Keaton went to a party with her friends this evening-they painted pumpkins and had a scavenger hunt. Campbell also went to a party where they had a blanket exchange, and she came home with a blanket that she really likes. Both girls took pictures with all of their buddies-I love that my girls enjoy taking pictures.

Reagan played pickleball with her friend this evening in between picking up and taking the girls. The big boys came to the campground and ate here. I think that they also enjoyed the evening. Shannon made fried rice, and we had tons of sweets to go along with that. 

We watched the basketball game and then the World Series game. There is a slight chance of rain tomorrow which means that we had to pick up everything, but that didn't take long. We then took a short walk for Bentley, and now I'm about to take my shower quickly so I have some time to read.
