Life
Last week was busy but fun! It was a big birthday week in my family, with four in a row. We celebrated my husband’s birthday Wednesday evening with good friends who came over for takeout Mexican and cake. All four of us were pretty tired that night from busy days, but as our friend said when she was leaving, “It’s so nice to have friends we can get together with even when we’re not feeling up to being social!” We’ve known them since we all lived in New Orleans together in the 80′s. I forgot to take photos Wednesday (like I said, we were all tired!), so here’s two photos of us from the old days – my husband and I with her on a camping trip and all four of us on Halloween in 1987:
On Friday, we left for a weekend of camping with my cousin and his wife, something we’ve been trying to coordinate for years! He and I are the same age, and we were quite a bit older than the rest of our cousins (and he was the only boy among eight girl cousins). They have their camper set up on a permanent site at a campground in eastern Pennsylvania, less than two hours from our house. We met them there and had a wonderful weekend together. They have a nice group of friends there that we enjoyed meeting. It rained for about 12 hours Saturday, but they had a nice dry covered patio with a gas fireplace. And once the rain ended in the afternoon, we were left with a gorgeous fall day! My cousin, my husband, and I went kayaking on a nearby lake and really enjoyed the beautiful afternoon, with some touches of fall color starting to show in the trees.
