Yo! All campers - Tumwater campground in Leavenworth rules! The campers started arriving on Thursday and at the peak of the outing, for our "family", we had over 25 people in our camp! The weather was perfect, not to hot and not to cold (with the help of the campfire and some beverages in the evening) just a tiny bit of rain Saturday night to knock down the dust.
Janie Casey and her lovely Mother Irene showed up on Friday to deliver the awesome Kwilt! Thank you to everyone who sent in a square! And special extra hugs and thanks to Janie and Irene!!! Be sure to support them and their annual Grinde Memorial Golf Tournament on July 26th in East Wenatchee!!!! The proceeds all go to the American Cancer Society to fight for a cure!!!
KK was napping when Janie and Irene showed up but Alanna got him up and he absolutely loved the Kwilt! He slept with it all weekend and I'm betting he keeps it near him for many years to come! We all took a trip into Leavenworth on Saturday, did the obligatory Brat's, Schnitzels and my Licorice Ice cream some shopping and generally enjoyed the day together. The highlight of Saturday was the Old Western group Pictures we took, be sure to check them out in the Gallery in the next couple days and see if you can pick out crazy Uncle(?)D!! It's kinda like where's Waldo only slightly different... You'll see... he was reticent but it was a RIOT and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it! KK felt pretty good most of the weekend and mostly just hung out and enjoyed the sounds of the river, the beautiful views and the comfort of having 3 generations of Little's along with multiple extended family all within snoring range ... did I mention that the nights were like an orchestrated event of grizzly bears arguing with thunder set to te background of other bodily functions..Lions, tigers and bears oh may had nothing on this group!??! Oh and the food all weekend was wonderful, KK's Gramma and Grandpa, 2great Aunts and and Great uncle were all with us from Thailand and mmmm mmm mmm is all I can say for the good eatin'!!! When will the pad thai be ready was a frequent phrase :-) Along with "mama how much was that bag?" ( sorry inside joke but it's pretty funny, but yeah, you had to be there)
KK got a slight reprieve from Chemo to be able to attend his school camp a week or so ago, so he's feelin' pretty good and hasn't had to take any pain pills or nausea meds for a few days now Yipppeeee!!! He gets back on his normal schedule of Chemo next week Tuesday and Wednesday so be sure to drop notes in the guestbook to keep him pumped up!!
Upcoming events: We have the Motorcycle ride on the 28th, be sure to check out the Little Ride Page!! We're probably going to be camping up at Leavenworth again that weekend if KK's feelin' up to it.
And there's talk of a July 12th HUGE bash with poker, live music, an awesome auction and lots of other fund raising events!! More details on that to come soon!!
And possibly a collection jar at the am/pm on the corner of Harbour Pointe Blvd., and the speedway more to come on that too!!
Keep up the guestbook entries, bug your friends and neighbors to drop a note in there!! We're a long way from being done, I know that I've not updated the blog as often as I should so Let's make a deal ... I'll do better if you'll post more often in the guestbook ;-) More to come soon and look for some really good, and some pretty hilarious pictures(some even think supernatural) in the gallery in the next day or two!!!
Until next time,
Camp air guitarist Mike Rockin' out
