Skylar loved using our new Valentine's Day headphones we got from Grams and Gramps. We all think they're awesome. Aunt Carly shared a free audiobook app with us that she has enjoyed using and I found a children's bible Skylar can listen to in small sections and he is enjoying it. It is a librovox recording so each section is read by a different reader and some are really good and engaging and some sound like the teacher in Ferris Bueller, but Sky loves the stories so it's working out great.
It soon became apparent that we couldn't all accomplish our goals for the day in one small space and so the kids and I cleared out and found that the Waveland Public Library was only about 3 miles away so we decided to check it out. It was a very nice library and very uncrowded so we set up in their awesome children's area and completed most of our school work there. Spence and Sky enjoyed playing some educational computer games there and watching some episodes of Peep and the Big Wide World.

| The boys read in front of the pirate ship in the children's area. They were enjoying re-reading the book series If You Give A Mouse... I think they read about six different books together. Warmed my heart. |
After the library, we found a post office so that I could get my nephew's birthday present sent off.
Next, we had to go grocery shopping again. Good news is everyone cooperated pretty well together and we were in and out fairly quickly. We headed back to the campground and got all the food put away.
Brock and Bri took our propane tank a few miles down the road to get it filled so we won't run out during the night one of these chilly nights.
Tomorrow we're heading into Louisiana. We've heard that the state park we're going to has free laundry. We've been saving up to take advantage of that so I hope it's true. Otherwise, we might soon be buried under a mountain of stinky socks and wet towels. If it is true, maybe we'll even wash our sheets this week. Ha ha. I think I've shared too much.
