A Week in the Life [Day 7: Saturday]

Saturday morning, though the kids woke up early, I took my time waking up and getting out of bed. Aaron was kind enough to bring my coffee to me in bed so I didn't have to get up. The camper was so cozy warm, I just sat and enjoyed it for a while.
After breakfast, everyone decided we should go back to the pier for more fishing.

I'm so glad that the kids are big enough to handle their own bait and tackle!
We went back and packed up the camper and enjoyed a few more minutes of play before we headed back home.
On the way home, we stopped for lunch at Bluebonnet Cafe (where they are famous for their pies).

Lunch was absolutely delicious. And how can it not be when you're eating good ol' southern comfort food like pot roast and chicken fried steak? So good.

We finally made it home early afternoon, and we got everything unpacked and unloaded. (Which--moment of confession--is good for us! Sometimes we just let most of it sit for a couple of days because we're too tired to unpack. It makes me think of the Baggage episode from Everybody Loves Raymond.) The kids went and played while Aaron and I worked on finishing some things to be ready for church tomorrow. 

After a while, Aaron was having trouble breathing (he'd been struggling a little for the past couple days but hadn't said much), and we decided he should go to the doctor to get checked out. He left and the kids and I went to drop off some pictures to a client and friend of mine. As we were leaving Laura's house, Aaron called and said it looks like he has a kind of asthma and it was good that he went. The doctor had to give him a shot, a nebulizer treatment, and then gave him an inhaler to keep with him.

At this point it was getting too late to cook anything, so the kids and I stopped and picked up burgers and fries at Steak & Shake and we all ate dinner while we watched America's Funniest Home Videos together. We were all sunburned (Oops! It didn't feel that hot at the lake.) and a bit worn out, so it was a nice way to end the weekend.
