70o! I finally downloaded my camera tonight and there were 700 photos from the 4th of July to date. To say the least, we have been busy and I can barely see my screen after all those photos.
We are home from our 5 day camping trip. It was...well, an adjustment. It's been 2 years since we camped, last year we did not go as Bella had just come home. This time around, we have a full blown teenager, a pre-teen, and "dirt boy" and a toddler on chemo treatments. It took us about 3 days to get our bearings and then we were figuring out how to camp with the new dynamics of our family. Overall, we had a nice time and have conducted a "family meeting" as to what everyone wants out of vacation time.
Bella's counts were GREAT last week! She is no longer neutropenic and I am no longer needing to give her shots in her legs. She started back up on her chemo last week but in lesser doses. This Thursday she will be sedated for yet another Spinal Tap for chemo and blood draw and then Friday we leave again for a family get together with family. Monday we head to Cedar Point for a fun filled day of Roller Coasters!
Lastly, thank you to all of you who have visited our blog from my good blogging buddy Pineapple Princess. As promised, I have a small prize to the person who can guess what body of water we visited this past weekend. I will give you up to 3 clues.
First Clue....we were in Central Northern Michigan! I know, it looks like the Ocean. :)

The kids look wonderful. Bella is getting so big. I hate seeing the little baby faces disappear and those toddler faces appear. I look at Luca's pics and, wow, the change.
We love Cedar Point!!! I need to bring Nico in another year or so when he grows a little bit more. (I don't do the roller coasters, but I love watching the others love them). It is Disney in Orlando for us this year.
So glad Bella is doing well.
Soooo cute, love her swimsuit and we love to camp!! So, were you at Lake Michigan? That was my first guess, but then I didn't see land in your picture on "The Love Shack" and I thought it must be an ocean. Anyway, I'm so glad you guys had fun. We'll be going camping in a few short weeks...maybe I'll do a guessing game too, you have such good ideas. :-)
Susie...Your post on Stacy's blog was GREAT! You are inspirational....I love seeing God's word come through you! I miss you and am ready to come to Michigan when you settle down and have time!!!! love.

Lake Michigan!!
It was great seeing photos of the kids enjoying their camping trip!! Glad things are going well for Bella and her hair is so cute and coming it so much!! TOO CUTE!! I'm thinking you guys were at Lake Michigan as well!
Higgins Lake? I kind of cheated, so if I'm right I don't need the prize ;). So glad all is well--700 pics in a week? Yikes! I can't hang with that!
I so loved seeing the pictures and that suit and hat are soooo cute on her. She is truly a doll baby. Glad everyone had such a fun time and what a beautiful family you have.
love the new pics... they all show what a wonderful time you had on your vacation...
beautiful Bella. love the ladybug hat. is it Lake Erie?
Hi Susie-
Just stopping by to check on sweet precious Bella. I just LOVE your family...your boys are all so handsome and Bella, well, forget about it....she is adorable!!
I am wrapping up another phase of chemo/radiation and about to head up to Central Northern Michigan next week!!! Can't wait!
My guess is Otsego Lake. I grew up in Michigan and spent summers in Petoskey and Higgins Lake and Lake Michigan. So I do not think I should qualify for a prize just in the off chance Otsego was correct. :)
Praying for Bella always...and all of you,
Maureen

Great pictures! Love the one of Bella in her lady bug hat with a lady bug on her cheek! Lady bugs are suppose to bring good luck.
Have a blessed weekend.
