Summer Science Fun

Every summer since we've lived here, there has been a summer science program called River Rats.  It takes place at Duck Park and they do all sorts of fun hands-on science stuff.  This past time the kids learned about orienteering and butterflies.






A Beach and Two Parks Day

We were initially headed to one park, but got side-tracked exploring for a beach I thought was in the area.  We found it!  And we found another park too!  It was a fun day.












Just had to prove that I was there too!  :)



Campmeeting

It rained.  It was hot.  It stormed.  It was cool.  
We sang songs.  We heard stories.  We colored and did crafts.  We played games. 
We saw friends from near and far. We saw relatives.
We went with lots of energy.  We came home tired.
We had lots of fun at Campmeeting!

Getting cool during a hot day!

Wow!  What big sunglasses!  Even too big for Dillon's big head. :)

The only nap he took all week!  Finally on Thursday he was exhausted!


More tree climbing!

End of the week.  Tired out.

Peek-a-boo!

I see you!

Strawberry Picking

They each helped with different things.  Can you guess who helped pick the most strawberries??   




49 quarts in about 3 hours.  Most of them were later frozen.  Some turned into jam.  Yum!
