We’re back from vacation.  We spent the majority of last week up in Myrtle Beach, SC for a little fun in the sun.  It was a great week!!!  Some friends of ours recommended staying at the Compass Cove hotel while up in Myrtle and wow what a hotel – thanks for the recommendation Heather! 

The Compass Cove was really cool, it had 3 different lazy rivers, a ton of pools, a kid’s water area and of course it was right on the beach.  We all had a blast jumping from one pool to the next and doing some boogie boarding and skim boarding on the beach.  (Actually, we could only skim board after 5pm each day, some kind of lame SC law?!?)  Oh well it was still a blast and I think the boys favorite part was having one of the lazy rivers right outside of our hotel room door.  They would wake up in the morning and jump right in.  Sandi’s favorite part of the trip was the all you can eat sea food buffet at Seafair.  Which I have to say, if you ever go up to Myrtle Beach you have to try Seafair (I’m still full). 

Of course now we’re back and into full swing again.  We have student camp next week, which will be an absolute blast.  So of course, this week is just one big mad dash to get everything completed before camp starts.  Big Stuf Campers; don’t forget we have a camp info meeting tomorrow night at Diane Vought’s home.   

Other things going on this week; I have a mini-van that just won’t run and has been at the mechanic ever since we left for vacation.  Unfortunately, they can’t seem to pinpoint what is exactly wrong with the thing, so we had to take it down to the dealership for them to take a look at it.  I’m thinking a small stick of dynamite should fix it.
