Last few weeks

Hey everyone! As you can tell we haven’t been on here for a while.  I guess I’ll pick up where my mom left off. On January 5^th we returned to our Thousand Trails camp site (3 lots to the left of it actually) at night, in the drizzly rain. Those next two weeks were quite eventful.

   

1. Come to find out, when it rained, the rain was leaking through a few of the rooftop corners.. so we had to put two tarps up there until it was dry enough to put some sealant in the holes. We also had a few other miscellaneous issues that Camping World (cough* cough* kind of) fixed for us.

2. We were with the Ethridges again! Stas, Sergei, and Avery all slept outside in a tent almost for the whole 2 weeks. I slept in my bed :P You could tell Avery really enjoyed being with other boys again after being out of it for like a year. It was really nice being with them for so long and we are hoping to meet up with them again sometime before returning to Coeur d’Alene.

3. Mr. Heistuman dropped on by! We all had a barbeque at the Ethridges place, took a walk through some R.V.s on sale, and went to see Parental Guidance at the theaters. Coming out of the theaters with Mr. Heistuman there, my mom and I both felt like we were back in CDA coming out of Regal Cinemas. It was weird J If you are reading this, thanks for stopping by! It was great having you.

4. Disney World! First off thanks to Grandpa and Grandma for buying our tickets! And thank you to the Ethridges for being our tour guides all three days J The first day Dad and I (with all the Ethridges) went to Epcot, went on some rides, and traveled to different countries. Later on in the day we each got a drink from Japan J Day two I went to Hollywood Studios with the Ethridge boys and Mr. Ethridge. We ended up riding The Tower of Terror like, 6 or 7 times and rode Aerosmith’s Rockin’ Rollercoaster a few times. Day Three: Mrs. Ethridge, the Ethridge boys, and Mom ‘n I went to Magic Kingdom. Rode a lot of rides, had some ice cream, and watched the afternoon parade. That night we stayed for the fireworks and the Cinderella Castle show thingy. It was pretty amazing. They even put the Wreck-It-Ralph game up there! J A few day later me and my mom were both sick. Haha oh well, it was fun. The ticket prices were WAY too expensive, but we had a good time. Thanks again Grandpa and Grandma.

Last Friday we packed up, exchanged goodbyes with the Ethridges, and took off for Largo, where we are at currently. On Sunday we went to church at Lakeside Community Chapel and listened to a sermon about handling stress. The pastor went through Psalm 3. Here is the sermon if you want to listen to it. After church we drove to a beach in Clearwater, walked to Ron Jon’s (J), and had some food at a nearby restaurant. On our way out we drove by the Clearwater Aquarium where the movie “Dolphin Tale” was filmed. It was really weird to see.

Right now we are just chillin, doing school, dad workings, and Ave and Mom are still getting over being sick. We might go to the beach sometime later today. Tomorrow we are leaving for Fort Meyers at around 5pm which will be around 2pm for you up in Idaho.
