This was our last Sunday in Ohio with Christian, Logan, Rebecca, and Steve. Now we have moved to Fayetteville area in North Carolina to spend time with Branden, Brooke, and little Aiden. We are staying in a RV camping area about 40 minutes from Branden's home. It is out in the country, secluded, a bit run down but with a nice pool. This morning, before church, Hunter and I swam laps for half an hour. The water felt good since North Carolina summer temps hover around 90 with 90% humidity. This campground has a couple of little ponds where Hunter hopes to practice some fly fishing and there are a number of trails through pine woods that will be fun to explore. We will be here around 6 weeks helping our kids and grandson in whatever "tasks" need done at the time. Right now I am in charge of most of the meal planning and I volunteer for dish duty as well as lots of baby holding! Hunter has already fixed a wobbly toilet and made homemade chocolate ice cream in our new ice cream maker. Its the cadillac of ice cream machines and gives Ben and Jerry a run for their money! In fact we have their recipe book and have improved on several of their recipes already. With Hunter's chemistry background he is having a ball "creating" in the kitchen! Steve and Rebecca hated to see us leave but we are not sure if it was because we helped with the grandkids or that they would miss the homemade ice cream! Check it out. It is pricey but SO worth it when you taste the results of only a short half hour of preparation!
The next blog will include photos of Aiden!!

I can vouch that your ice cream is WAY better than ANY store bought kind, including B&J (but of course I am partial to your homemade sorbet at the moment).
