Dan with a side of BEANS

I'm just going to stop apologizing for not blogging. So this is me not apologizing.

I went and saw the midnight showing of Eclipse last Tuesday with Rachel. The movie was awesome! However, I am not so sure that a midnight show is in my blood anymore. Perhaps I could just wait until the next day to see the movie. It was a complete zoo. We got there at 10:00 (yes, 2 hours early) and it was already packed with people. When it was time to leave it took us almost 30 minutes to get out of the parking lot. I didn't get to bed until after 3:00 and then after watching such an awesome movie, who can sleep?

Friday was birthday. I turned 35, which seems a little high to me, but when I did the math it kept coming back at 35. Considering I will have a teenager in a few months, 35 isn't that bad, right? On Thursday we went to pizza with my dad and Cheryll and they gave me a new (much needed) printer for my birthday. We decided to mix Maddie's birthday in too, so she got some new clothes and the Ipod she's been wanting.

Friday was camping day. Dennis spent the night with us Thursday and I had lots of intentions to take the kids to see Eclipse, but I barely had time to do what I needed to do to get ready for camping.

Camping was fun. Last year we went to Dosewallips and this year we went to Belfair. Last year our campsite was so small you could barely move. This year it was much bigger. It was also much louder. So many people and SO MANY DOGS! I swear we were the only people without any dogs there. There was a little stage with seating between our campsite and the bathroom so the girls and Quinn made good use of that A LOT.

Saturday night Tara and Brad came out for dinner and brought me brownies and cookies and truffles for my birthday (thanks Tara!). Dan made a huge pot of beans, which he tortured the rest of us with for the rest of the night (hence the blog title post - Dan came up with that).

I have pictures on Facebook. I'll just leave you with my favorite.
