I had NO idea Bentlee would submerge her head under water, hold her breath, and get water in her ears. I was not sure she would ever swim for fear of getting water in her ears...one of her many "phobias"! She ISSSS a OCD DRAMA QUEEN! Seriously~

The Ted Deanes Scouting Center
On Saturday the restored boy scout camp in Mufreesboro was dedicated to my grandad, Ted Deanes. It has been named the Ted Deanes Scouting Center for some time but this was the official day of dedication. My grandad has over 60 years in the Boy Scouts and has acheived just about every award you can imagine! We are so proud of him. It was such a nice service and all the Deanes' were there...the brothers and sisters I mean, some grandkids, and some great grandkids...lots of community friends and even some smaller scouts that do no know my grandad and how dedicated he was to instilling values in boys just like them. My grandad has really declined in health but he is still the "gruff old man" he has always been...a man of few words and a HUGE heart.

Typical, just typical
The only shopping we did at the beach was a quick stop at Brew Thru...the girls had to have shirts according to their dad. So, as long as he was buying, I was shopping, but it is a darn shame how much those little bitty shirts cost! This morning was their first opportunity to wear them together...
And its just TYPICAL for one of my girls to cry or act out when I want to take a picture...just typical.

Wouldn't you know!
Of course this recall is on the infamous swingset of ours, along with other models! BUT, its only the glider hardware! Everyone can stop holding their breath, there will be no more whining from me about putting together another swingset this summer, LOL! But we want our kids safe so we would build another if that was the case, thankfully not.
My blogger friend/old high school classmate, Keri, forwarded this email to me. If I had not blogged our swingset she may not have sent it to me....another advantage to blogging girls!

La petite vacation!
So, we made it back from our weekend at the beach...with a little tan and alot of sand to show for it! We had a great time...the weather was nice, hot but not so bad. When you are at the beach its more tolerable for some reason. We were afraid the smoke may be bad from Hyde Co. fires but it was not, it settled in a few times but nothing unbearable.
Our little vacation almost turned into an extended family vacation. Two of Wade's brothers and their families ended up joining our last minute trip. The kids played so well together and the rest of us just sat back and enjoyed the view and conversation.
Rylee did not like the beach on Saturday at the motel, the sand was really HOT and she did not want to get near the water...she was pretty miserable. Then she napped through the time at the pool. Sunday was a much better day for her at Oregon Inlet. She even got her feet all sandy!
Bentlee, as usual, had a "large" time...she played, and played, and played, and finally POOPED out! As was Rylee! As you can see from the picture, she fell asleep just before we left and I was trying to get her cleaned up a little and she just layed there!
We got home around 8:30 last night. I de-sanded just about all the clothes, left the suitcases outside due to the possible "roach motel", don't want any new comers in our house! ;(...and its back to the grind this morning...I hate Mondays after vacation.
