Rain, rain and more rain!

We had fun camping at Miquelon Lake Provincial Park this weekend!  Thankfully, after almost a week straight of rain, we had okay weather!!  Saturday was warm, although windy, but we enjoyed a few of the "Provincial Parks Day 2010" celebrations.  The kids enjoyed crafts, face painting and pond-dipping.  The pond dipping was very cool - 2 conservation officers lead the pond-dip.  The kids each borrowed a net, which they dipped into the pond and then they learned about what they found!!  Blake was so proud of all the mud he was finding!!  lol!  I was quite impressed with the activities and with the facilities at Miquelon Lake.  The beach is very nice, with a large park and picnic tables right on the beach.  And the sites are nice and big!  Blake had fun playing with Colby and the other kids.  Emerson loved being pulled around in the wagon by Madison and Madison enjoyed pulling her around!  Both the kids loved splashing in the puddles ;)  For now, we don't have camping plans made until September long weekend, but we may go out once or twice in August.

It's off to work for me tomorrow.  I'm having moments where I'm wondering why I said I could pick up these shifts ... lol!!  I've had a bit of a cold for a few days now, but it seems to be getting worse :S  But, the extra moola will be nice and hopefully I'll enjoy a day of working out of the house :)  And I'm sure the kids and Cal will enjoy some time to themselves!

Cal's Mom and Grandma are coming for a visit on Wednesday and staying the night.  We hope to take in the Capital Ex parade on Thursday, weather permitting.  I took the kids to Sing, Sign, Laugh and Learn at the Woodcroft Library last Thursday and they loved it.  It's been awhile since we've attended a library program.  So if it's raining we might do that on Thursday instead.  Friday we're taking the kids to my parents house and Cal and I are driving to Canmore for our little get away!  I'm really looking forward to it!  Some R n' R is in order!!  I've been so tired lately and really feeling like I have zero energy.  I'm feeling very sluggish and haven't had much "get up and go!!!"  I have a Dr. appointment on Wednesday and might see if I can get my iron levels checked.  I had to take iron supplements during Emerson' pregnancy and I'm wondering if my iron might be low right now, hence the zero energy?!

Have a great week everyone ... rain or shine!
