November 16, 2025-Battle of the Ravine Weekend

(click for today's pictures) 

Graham was the first one awake this morning followed by Campbell and Keaton. They headed to church this morning so they had to leave pretty early. They made it in plenty of time-maybe because Graham drove a little faster than we would have liked.

Robby and I stayed in bed for a while. Whitman was wide awake so when we all did get up and start working on packing up the camper. He was even so wide awake that he offered to walk with me to the trashcan. We walked there, and he talked to me the entire time.

Picking up this morning didn't take too long, but Robby super cleaned out the tanks which does take a little bit of time. We left the campground around 11:25 and zoomed on towards Little Rock. We only stopped once at a gas station, and thankfully there were no surprise tire stops.

Campbell and Graham had to stay late at church today to practice for the Christmas program. Since Keaton went to church with them, she had just planned to stay. Robby thought of asking if she wanted to pick her up, and she jumped on that idea. I think that she was glad to head home a little bit early.

We were glad to have the extra set of hands to help us unload the camper. We had most things boxed and piled up ready to be taken out so Whitman and Keaton helped with that. Soon we were finished unloading, and I went to town washing everything.

Campbell and Graham came home this afternoon, and he immediately left again with Whitman. They went to Nonna and Pops' house to help move some wood. They needed a Sonic drink afterwards, so they stopped by there on their way home. 

Robby cleaned the camper this afternoon, and then when he took Campbell to Rock Creek I reloaded it.  The camper is now ready for our next camping trip-even though that will probably be in 2026. While Robby and Campbell were gone, I heated up some soup along with leftover manicotti for our Sunday night super with the Wilsons. 

We ate and visited, and then it was eventually time for the saddest part of the week-Sunday night! This should be a fun and kind of slow week so that is nice.
