We share a small 400 square foot 'studio' cabin. There are 2 queen beds, the table in the picture. A stove, a fridge from the 1950's, a counter and a few cupboards/drawers. There is a enough room between the bed and the wall for my suitcase to stand - sideways. This is how my kids sleep and each morning we clean it up and pile it on my bed. There's no running water - that's outside at the pipe and the bathroom and showers are out back. 50 cents this year for a shower.
This year (after all the trials and scary events we've endured - especially last year), this year, every day was picture perfect. It didn't rain, it didn't even threat of rain, the water was warm every day, all day, no boats stopped working, noone was injured (my niece Rachel tweeked her back a little, but nothing else). It was beautiful, peaceful and a well deserved break from life and the real world.
always eating - I'm pretty sure this was taken at the same time as the one above where the other 3 kids were passed out.
We held church and it was phenomenal as usual. Something about being outside in God's world He created and singing and praising Him.
After church, we have Cousins Christmas and eat dinner, play games, and enjoy our family.
rules: $5 or under - that's a hard target to stay under. Once you graduate from high school, you're out of the pool. :)
