Arizona in August??

Yes, crazy as it sounds, me and the kiddo's visited the grandparents in Phoenix during the hottest part of the year. Of course, it is hot all the time, so "hottest" is relative. Jack and June had the best time with Poppi & Gram. June took a little while to warm up, but once she did, she was Poppi's girl. We all got spoiled completely and loved every minute of it. Poor Dad was all by himself back in S.C., but he has a secret project that kept him busy.

It sure was fun, but it's nice to be back home.

Camping in Black Mt., N.C.

Hello All..During the end of July, we Heitmans went on a camping trip. We kind of crashed a long on-going party of dear friends of ours. The Essig (Jack's best friend Jed) family and friends have been going to the same campground in the Mt. Mitchell area of Black Mt., N. Carolina for many years. It is a mission to include more friends and family every year...be it by marriage, birth or new friends. We feel honored to have been invited and will be back next year.
