My 14 year old sister Casey just told me a story that made me so very proud of her and also made me think we may be related after all. Yesterday the whole family took a trip to Racoon Island in Lake Hopacon (I spelled it wrong and I am too lazy to spell it right so... deal with it) to visit our Uncle Greg (who is not really our uncle just a close family friend as Sarah discovered yesterday) and his daughter Haley, along with various members of his family we haven't seen in ages. So Casey, Sarah, and I hung out with Elizabeth ("myfriendlizabeth" the one word Casey used to refer to her when they were about 3), watching as LUCKYY people with speed boats road on tubes and such around the lake as we sat on our boatless dock. I had to leave suddenly (10 minutes late) to go lifeguard about an our after we came so I missed out on the fun.

Casey told me that after severe boardum the girls decided to try to water tube with... a row boat. That is right, they tied a tube to a row boat and rowed around the lake with their tube slowly lagging behind. I can only imagine the glances they got from the passing speed boaters as they displayed their specialness for all to see. The only improvement I can think of is possibley, while riding in the tube, the person should have screamed enthusiastically acting like they were having the time of their life.

But I am so proud of her. Wow... brings tears to my eyes (but not really). I was going to go into details about other things like our vacation to LBI and recent dramatic issues, but nothing else compares to this.
