Bennett jumped into bed with us morning about 7:30. John got up but Bennett and I fell back to sleep until about 8:15 when Grandpa summoned us for breakfast. He made us pancakes and bacon, and as usual, they were delicious. After convincing Bennett to finish his breakfast we changed into our bathing suits, packed up the beach bag and headed to the pool. TW, Arlena, Alex and Todd arrived about 11:30. We all swam in the outdoor pool, except for TW and Todd. They decided to be "stick in the muds". Bennett tried his best to get Daddy wet, but Daddy was having no part of it! Everybody was getting hungry, so we left the pool walked back to Harvey for some lunch. John grilled Italian sausages and burgers while I sautéed onions and peppers and warmed up mac and cheese. We decided to go to the indoor pool/water park after lunch. Everyone but TW got into the action and had a really fun time. We spent about 2 hours there and then went back to the outdoor pool.

Bennett thought this up all by himself... having the
fountain water shoot down his trunks! Grandpa
actually joined him!! (I accidentally deleted that picture) |
 |
Bennett loved running in and out of the mushroom!

Everyone took their turn in the tube, but it hurt my knees,
so I chickened out... Bennett... |

TW and Arlena wanted to leave the CG by 6 0r 6:30, so after about an hour we decided to order pizza for supper from Nino's just down the road from the CG. (We eat a lot, don't we?!?). We all left the pool when TW left to go pick up the pizza. I had time for a quick shower (just in case we had time to join our small group from church later tonight). We were done with supper by 6:15 and the gang hit the road for home. It was so good to have everyone here. We had a wonderful time! We originally were supposed to meet our small group in Bainbridge for a bike ride on the rail trail at 6:00 and then ice cream at Gigi's. But we had called to let them know we had family here and most likely wouldn't make it in time for the bike ride, but maybe we would be able to join them for the ice cream. So we fixed ourselves up and headed for Bainbridge to meet the group at the ice cream shop. We weren't sure if they would still be there or not, and I forgot to bring my phone or I could have called them. Oh, well, if worse comes to worse we'll get ice cream out of it. (We're eating again!). As luck had it, our group walked in about 10 minutes after we got there! It was fun chatting with everyone and the ice cream was delicious!! Poor Joyce had a big "boo boo" below her right elbow from a spill. Luckily, she was the only one who was wearing a helmet because she did hit her head, too! We left there about 8:30 and I noticed that my gold bracelet was gone. I figured I must have lost it in one of the pools playing with Bennett. I'll have to check tomorrow. When we got back to Harvey we played some cards, watched TV and then went to bed. Another great day at Circle M!!
