As much as I love watching my daughter play soccer & my husband coach the team, boy am I glad it's over. It's great fun, but it monopolizes your life for 3 months each season. We had a great end of season party though. We had our party at Lake Michael in Mebane. It was my first time there. I had heard of it but never been. It was awesome! Compared to other lakes in the area, I couldn't believe how cheap it was! To rent a shelter that holds 50 people & has a grill was $10 for 4 hours! They had paddle boats that hold 4 people that were only $1 per person. They also had a pontoon boat you could rent as a group for $10. It's not a lake you cam swim in, but they did have fishing. It was so beautiful & they have 2 awesome playground areas. If you're not going with a group, they have lots of random tables & grills all around. We can't wait to go back sometime!
Now for summer! I absolutely cannot believe that my little girl is almost a first grader. It happens so fast. She of course cannot wait to be a first grader. I was trying to figure out what to do for her this summer. She will stay with Granny, but I want her to have fun too. I thought about various camps, but they are so expensive! She's got one week of dance camp in July, and that's $100. Insane! Granny and I decided that Granny will do her own summer camp. I will provide some money for Tayler, and her and Granny will go to various fun places: putt-putt, bowling, swimming, etc. So Granny's summer camp it is!
As for us, I'd like to say a summer vacation is on the horizon, but at this point I have no idea where the money will come from. We were hoping to head north to Vermont at some point this summer, but need to set some money aside first. Also with everything going on between me and Gary we are almost out of vacation time at work. We will have to see how it goes, but we do hope to make it up there sometime in 2009!
