because I’ve got 1 million and 1 bug bites!

I’m back home and I survived the weekend. Ok so the 1 million and 1 bug bites may be an exaggeration but I’m serious when I say I’m covered from head to toe with bites everywhere! And yes I used bug spray. All the time. And the weird thing is no one else got as many bites as I did. Guess the mosquitoes liked me because I’m so sweet

It was fun. Caleb had a blast. But now I’m exhausted. I didn’t sleep worth crap, which that’s not surprising but I think I’m getting too old to be camping and sleeping in a tent. LOL. My back is killing me. We did have an air mattress to sleep on which made things better than sleeping on the ground but dang it doesn’t feel like it helped much. And man I forgot what it was like when it rained…not rained but POURED and you’re in a tent. It’s very loud and disturbing. Had some thunder and lightening too but thankfully it didn’t last all that long.

I feel like I need a couple days just to recuperate from the two days I was away. I napped for awhile when I got home (Caleb’s dad came & got him to take him to a Mud Bog) after a really looong super hot shower. And of course I had to put calamine lotion on to try to bring some relief from the bites. I’m quite the site – covered in pink calamine lotion from head to toe. It’s helped some but I have to keep reapplying every couple hours.

Here are some pics from the weekend:
