But I must say that we had a great September. It is my favorite month of the year. I wish I had been born in September like Shan. Her birthstone is my favorite gem (outside of diamonds)--Sapphire. Dark Blue and so beautiful. You would think it would be amethyst since my favorite color is purple!
We had a great Labor Day weekend. The kids were all here-Sara, Jordan, Wee Wee, and Alea. Sara's mom was here and Nick. It was really nice. The following Thursday, we went to the World 100 @ Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio. The track was owned by Earl and Bernice Baltes until Tony Stewart of NASCAR bought it a few years ago. The racing was good. Camping was good and we got to see our friends from Iowa. Marty, Jason, and Kurt. Jason brought his fiance for the first time this year--Amanda.
The following weekend was the Pittsburgher and we always have a great time there! We camp with our friends, Tom and Lisa. This year, Angel and her son Andrew joined our camp! It was awesome! The food was incredible!
Last weekend was our trip to Deep Creek. We had an extra day this year! It really made it seem like a vacation rather than a long weekend! Again, we ate really good food! Every one makes something or brings something and it turns out so good! Friday, Tom and Dean did a fresh ham on the smoker. They pulled it apart and added BBQ sauce-Baby Ray's, the best there is-- and it was awesome. Saturday Dean did Prime rib. It was fantastic! We had salad and Baked taters with it. Just awesome!
This weekend, we went to Pumpkinland at Janoski's Farm in Clinton PA. We took Jordan and Wee Wee and they had a great time! They got their faces painted, picked their own pumpkins in the pumpkin patch, went through the petting zoo, and had funnel cake and kettle corn! It was a great day for them!
