Ha ha, Bill asked me to back up so I could get the camera man, Dan, in the picture too!

| Ooh, they got to go see Rehvyn |
 |
| We went through this camper just to see what new things they are doing. Quite the staircase going up to the bedroom |
 |
| Nice and roomy for kids with their storage space |
 |
| This is the rest of their room at the end of the bed. I was taking it from the staircase |

Got up at 6:30. Got ready and then I went outside to blow the leaves off the deck. We had got some bad winds before we left for camping and again when we got home. We also got rain, so it was too wet to blow off sooner. I got it done, fed the birds and put cushions on the swings when Bill knocked on the sliding glass door and let me know the people from TV5 were here. They wanted to do the interview outside. I let them know we had been gone and I hadn’t wiped down the outside tables so they were dirty. They went to set their equipment on the dirtiest table so I let them know it was pretty bad. They picked another table on the deck and even though it was dirty too, they said it wouldn’t show in their interview. I was a little worried she would get her nice outfit dirty from the chair. I took some pictures of them before they started, then I videoed them when Lauren was doing the interview and Dan was running the camera. They both were so nice and did a great job. She was just amazing at asking questions and was so kind and caring. Bill and I had prayed for him to not be nervous and do a great job on the interview. He sure did! I was so proud of him. They are going to air it probably Monday or Tuesday of next week. My video turned out good but you have to listen really good to hear it. After the interview was done, they came back in the house and asked me if I had pictures of when Bill was in Vietnam. I got some together for them while Bill took them in the family room and showed them my favorite picture of him. They took pictures and videoed while he was paging through his picture album from when he was there. They also took a picture of his dad and grandpa saluting each other and in their military clothes. Then they went outside and took some pictures of our American and Marine flags and also the Marine statue that Debbie had got for Bill on his 70th birthday. They are both going on the Honor Flight with Bill and his group.
I went to Kimmy’s and got there just as Kimmy got Eli up. I was happy to see him and of course get my hug. I loved seeing his amazing beautiful coasters he has made. I am so impressed with the talents he has. Vikki, Peyton and Isaac got there shortly after I did. We all went out on the deck and visited. Later on, Kimmy put ear wax remover in one of Vikki and my ears a few times and flushed them out. A little wax came out of Vikki’s but not for me.
Kimmy got things out for subs and we all picked what we wanted and she toasted them. They were so good! Thanks Kimmy. We also had strawberries dipped in powered sugar which tasted really good, but I breathed some powered sugar in and that is a no no.
Yay! Kimmy’s treadmill finally came. Now we three girls can walk all together.
The kids all had fun hanging out together. I love that all the cousins are close. We are very blessed!. Kimmy, Vikki and I went out and sat on Kimmy’s new swing and chair. So comfy. We looked at all of her plants and cute things in her garden, then decided to walk through the woods so we could see her signs and bird house she hung on the fence out there. It looks so cute. Adds more joy to the walk when you see a cute decorated fence instead of junk cars, etc. of the neighbors. We looked at her other garden and then sat down on the new swing and chair for 5 minutes before I had to leave. Bill had called and wanted me to come home by 4:30 to look at a Motorhome he looked at and really liked. I got home and we headed to Birch Run. He had me watch a video of it and look at pictures on our way there. It is so nice and is only 4 feet longer and has more seating for when grandkids come to camp. We like that the driver and passenger chairs are comfy and swivel around for when we camp. The day before, I told Bill he could look but could only get one if it was the price ours was and we got a good trade in. He found this the next day and told me he had been looking for a year already and hadn’t found one. The salesman was a Christian and had been in a house explosion and was injured. They had told him he would be in the hospital
1 1/2 years and he ended up getting out in 28 days. He’s doing great. His mom goes on missionary trips to Africa where they drill for water. He showed me some amazing pictures. His dad was a pastor, but passed away 3 years ago. We shared about the miracles God had done for Melissa. We sure saw God’s hand in everything and felt great peace.
We sent a video to the girls to look at. Vikki and Isaac are going with us to pick it up on Friday. We sure are excited. We stopped at Culver’s and had Cod dinners. We brought some home with us. They sure have good cod!
We came home and emptied most of the motorhome. Bill emptied the storage cabinets outside and I emptied the inside. He carried all of the tubs and clothes baskets full of stuff and loaded it in my car out there. Then when I got to the garage, he helped me unload everything. We sure were glad to get inside and sit down.
Vikki took Peyton to spend a few nights at Kenzie’s. Eli and Isaac went with her to drop her off. She sent me some cute pictures.
