Quarantine: Week 22
The kids went to another week of camp! It's only 2 hours a day but they really love it.
We started the week with the weirdest weather. Storms kept forming basically right over our house so we had a severe thunderstorm for about 7 hours along with hail and so much rain it overflowed the rain gauge.
Did anyone else love shucking corn as a kid? I remember doing it, and I think it was a chore I didn't mind. My favorite was when my Mom cut the kernels off and they would come off in big chunks. Yum.
I did a DIY paint kit from an artist I have loved for awhile. It turned out awesome!
We decided to go camping Saturday night! We planned it about a week ago and lucked out with the perfect weather, since on Friday evening there were tornadoes all over the area. We stopped on the way down for treats from county fair vendors in a Hy Vee parking lot!
We didn't zip a door closed and for some reason, Marlo was targeted by all the mosquitoes in the tent and possibly the world. They tormented her all night as Rob tried to keep them at bay. I only realized the door was open in the morning. Kasper, Rob and I had a couple hours of whittling and coffee time before Marlo finally woke up from her terrible night.
Could you feel any worse for her? Rob counted 70 bites on her face. There were like 8 on the tip of her nose alone. They even got her lips. It was a maiming!
We went on a little hike but their hearts weren't in it.
Rob killed a ton of fat mosquitos overnight and then found and took vengeance on at least 30 more when he was packing up and taking down the tent. They were all still digesting and full of Marlo blood.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
