One of the great things about summer is
the kids can do things
they don't normally get to in the school year.
This year they went to:
Cub Scout Camp
BB guns and archery were again the highlight!
Greg was able to spend a whole day with them
and the boys were SO happy for it.
They love their DAD!
Art Camp
The kids participated in an art camp
along with their friends Avery, Paige and Grace.
Parker loved it
and was really proud
of the work he did.
Although, Lowden said he wanted to go to art camp,
he decided afterwards that
in the future
he would prefer...
pottery camp.
Lauren was a creating machine!
Bennett came to the final art show
all ready for his turn.
"Not this year, you cute thing!"
Writer's Camp
The boys also participated in a writing camp through the Young Writer's Association.
The theme was "Sea Dawgs and Water Gypsies!"
They made ships in a bottle,
wrote sea stories,
acted in a group written play,
set out on a canoeing adventure,
carved sea symbols in soap,
and
made porcelain treasures.
But, their favorite part was the swashbuckling!
On Guard!

We did have lots of lazy days too. But active kids are happy kids and fight-less-with-each-other kids.

Looks like such a great summer. So many fun camps. I totally agree with you -- it is our days where my kids are bored where we are all going crazy by the end. Glad you had plenty of busyness, and plenty of laziness. Love ya.
Fight-less-with-each-other-kids is a great thing! Your kids did tons of camps! We stayed busy with lots of swimming, camping and a foreign exchange student.
I thought I was busy with my kids schedules, but it looks like you had me beat.
How fun! I can't wait until my kids are old enough to enjoy going to summer camps like that. :)
I totally agree with what you said about kids not fighting as much when they have lots to do. It's a lot of work running, but less stressful.
