Family Camp

What a busy week we had. Camp was a blast! The kids loved it. Elizabeth and Sammy made new friends and were able to do lots on their own this year. Hope wasn't quite sure what she thought of the whole thing, but she did love the swings. "I go wing." was her favorite phrase of the week. Amelia loved watching all the people, especially the kids. She even met a little boy her age and had fun talking with him.

Matt and I enjoyed the speaker, Dr. Dave Crandall from Answers In Genesis. We learned a lot from him. He also had a great sense of humor. We didn't get to spend a lot of time together, but it was relaxing for both of us. Reconnected with friends from last year and made some new ones. I know we both wished Rob and Gwen lived closer. We did get to spend tons of time with the kids, in groups and individually. We look forward to getting back there next year.

Our Summer of Adventure continues. This week we'll be home, getting ready for school to start - shopping and physicals. We'll also be spending a lot of time trying to stay cool! Summer's finally hit. My brother and his family will be up next week. We're also trying to plan a trip down into PA to see friends, family, and trains.

After that, summer will be over. Elizabeth starts school on September 2. I guess that means the fun is really about to start for us. I hope I can hold on and make it through.
