Cousins Camp Day 2

Blueberry picking, swimming, made blueberry buckle, and blueberry pie.  

In all it was a great day.  My brother forgot to mention that the baby and 2 year old get up at 5 am.  They actually were up at 4:45.  Now, I have a 16 year old that was home at 10:30.  So I am burning the candle at both ends - literally.  J and I better get use to it.  This will be what it is like with a fourth.  One in diapers and one driving.  The kids have been really fun.  They all get along.  The only steadfast rule has been:  we are not allowed to hurt each other with words or with our hands.  Today after waking up for the second time at 5, I want to implement a new rule... no getting up before the clock says 6:00.  Unfortunately, the ones that need to adhere to it can't read time.  Oh well.  It will be good for me to feel what it may be like in a few months.
