I thought it was time for another Random Thoughts post! It has been a month since my last one. This one will include things we haven't posted in here yet:
*we started 'house hunting' for us. We aren't buying anymore because things have been so crazy with our money and the downpayment we are going to rent again. I have been checking around and a friend of mine is going to come with me to check them out (no dragging the kids all over). Hopefully we can find something. I'm aiming for a house by August 15th. Sept 1st is the latest I will go. We are looking for something for at least a year and 3/4. We would like to do this again but want to wait a summer. We need 1 summer in a house so we can keep up with the saving aspect and hopefully do this (but at a different campground) and then move into our own house! *fingers crossed*
*I'm so glad we started up Bible Study for the girls and I again. I have missed it so much, I have totally missed being in on whats going on in everyones lives!
*Yesterday the boys were very 'artistic' I guess you could say. Before we went to the zoo I found lipstick on my car. I had to use a tissue to get it off. Then before we went to Auntie Kristina's and Uncle Tim's the kids got ahold of some markers that were in the van and coloured all over the dash. I later found out it wasn't just the dash but the stearing wheel and the seats.
*oh and to add to everything else Quinton put about 13.00 of loonies and toonies into the tape deck. This kid will be the death of me.
*Our friendly 'coon has come to visit us a few time in the past month. Generally there are enough campers around to make things 'interesting' for them and not worth getting into our RT
*Kyler is now calling the trailer his 'home'. I think it's cute.
*we still get funny looks with living here but hey, its fun!
*I think Arnold and I might take a walk around the park tonight. There are some cool tents out. I'll see if we can get a couple shots for everyone.
*I'm beginning to think it might actually be time to put away some of the 'winter blankets' that we have in the trailer. It's getting so warm at night that it's hard to sleep with all that heat around us. Hopefully we can figure out just what we are going to do and get it done.
*There is still a bit of organizing to be done in the trailer to make things liveable after the water damage from yesterday. I'm hoping to get most of it cleaned up and back to normal soon
*We are making progress, or at least continuing with potty training. The last few warm days we have had 'tiggers' on him and it seems to be going ok. Sometimes, at least once a day, he forgets that he has to take the OFF then pee. But that's ok.
I guess that's it for now!

Week 4 Day 7 - June 11th - Morning Report
I can’t believe how fast this week has gone! I still haven’t had time to update another journal I’m working on with last week’s fun and adventure!
I’m getting a few seconds this morning to do some more writing because the boys are still in bed sleeping. This is very odd for them but I’ll take what I can get! Plus this way I can get a few more things organized before they get up.
Today so far, our plans are to:
*get up, dressed and have breakfast
*go to the Zoo!
*hit up the Rogers plus store on the way home
*go to the grocery store and get supper for tonight (I’m thinking pasta, sauce and meatballs)
*get our mail
*go home and have a nap (assuming the boys haven’t done that already)
Once Daddy gets home, and I think he might be working a bit later than usual, we are going to have a campfire today. Wow what a so non-busy day! I love them!

Random Thoughts - May 26th
Good morning!
This morning while I was changing Q out of his pee'd on clothes and everything I thought about all the 'random' things I don't blog about. So here some are:
*A few days ago (being Sunday) we were all sitting at the table and eatting supper. I was done and sitting back and all the sudden I realized that there was a spider on the table. I told Arnold about it and asked him to do something. I was paralized in fear. I really hate spiders. I can handle the little ones, or Daddy-long-legs, but this one was about the size of a loonie or toonie (legs and body). He scared me. Anyway, I asked Arnold to get something and he was taking his time getting it and I started to move and sure enough the spider moved on me. I jumped up screaming and scared Q a bit. It was a bad thing all together. Arnold checked me to make sure the spider wasn't on me anymore and tried to comfort me. I don't think he realized how scared I was of spiders! Now we are dealing with the 'after effects' from me screaming and now Q gets upset when he sees bugs.
*I am almost sure that the Raccoon is leaving us alone. As you may have noticed he hasnt' been a big part of my posing lately. We think he has left us alone for 2.5 days now (the .5 is for the fact that yesterday Arnold didn't wipe everything off so now we don't know if the marks were there before or not). It's been kind of nice. We keep up with keeping everything cleaned and in containers which is helping alot. It is hard to have a 'lazy day' here because dishes must be done every night, cloths must be hung up every night, doors closed, containers sealed. It's just alot of work every day. We also think it might be because there are some serious 'stupid' campers here that leave their food out all night long and when Arnold gets up their food is all over. That and the trash cans/dumpsters haven't been emptied since we got here so they have lots of food to get. That and maybe having all the boys pee around the tent is helping!!!
*Our potty training with Q is on a bit of a stand still until it ets a bti warmer. We have been doing ok with it during the day and before each bum change but we are hoping to do a bit better once the weather is warmer.
*A Random Thought for Nana and Papa (more so Nana) they have little booklets at the front that have the trails on them. Maybe you should pick them up :) For those who want to know what I'm talking about Mom blogged about it here: http://adventuresingrandparenting.blogspot.com/2009/05/three-hour-tour.html
*My husband eats WAY too much Rasion Bran. He is already done his box! I swear that boy needs to cool it!
*Arnold and I have talked about doing this again, the living here all summer thing, but if we do we need to have a bathroom in here! Heck... I've even been dreaming of ways to add a toilet to this one. Storage place would suck but hey, it might be worth it!
*DH has been great for doing thing at night. Last night he left around 8:30, 9pm and went home and came back with: clean laundry, our toothbrushes we forgot (hense why we didn't go anywhere yesterday :P ), he baked some cookies and brought them with us, brought over 2 kitchen chairs so he could eat ok at the table, another pile of wood for our fires (our neighbour friends who came last weekend were nice enough to give us the rest of their bag), and a few more freezer items (a roast and ground beef). He is so great!
