If you are looking at this. I put this on the wrong blog. I didn't even know I could post on this blog anymore. We have a new blog and it is www.thespanntimes.blogspot.com. So I will hopefully be able to copy these posts over. Enjoy!
We are about to finish up our first week here at Windy Gap. Blake is doing program with our friends John Sharp and Luke Sadler. They are doing a great job. I thought you might enjoy some pictures of our first week. The campers do a hike on Thursday. The kids and I didn't hike, but we drove up to the lunch site and ate with them and had a little family picnic. We took a picture at a look out spot.


On Wednesday night we dress up in 1800's clothes and this was Lainey's outfit. Randi Lea Thomas gave her this outfit as a baby gift knowing that we would use it this summer. Thanks Thomas! In two weeks Lainey will be one!!! This was Brayden's costume. You can't see the pants in this picture but they were great. Mandy Holmes let me borrow this one. It used to be her son's. Her mom made it. Brayden didn't wear the headdress for very long. I don't think he liked all of the attention he was getting from wearing it.

Brayden is loving Windy Gap as you can see. This is him at the swimming pool jumping off the diving board, which is twice as high as a regular one.


He and Blake also did the Nascarts. He said he went as fast as Lighting McQueen!






July 4th weekend we decided to take on a project. We knocked down our old columns and put up some new ones. I though some of you might enjoy seeing the handy work of my skilled and hard working husband. As you notice in the snow picture they were white round columns that the paint was peeling and below is the new columns. We stained them the color of our shutters that we built about 3 years ago and then we restained the shutters because they had faded a little , so now it all matches.
