Camp Pictures

Here's an attempt at getting caught up on the blog. These pictures show how we spent our days this summer. Oh how I miss it now!

One of the best parts of camp is having more time with my sweet children and wonderful husband.

Days were full of golf cart "driving," tether ball, and sweet friends.

The fourth of July celebration was amazing as usual, complete with inflatables, fireworks, and lots of sugar.

Although everything at camp is fun, the incredible people that we get to spend time with daily are what make the summer for us. We are so thankful for all these folks!

Happy Father's Day!

David-We love you. You are such a dear father to our kids. Your generosity, playfulness, and leading is a gift from God. You have a heart to see the kingdom come. Your understanding of your need for God's grace is refreshing and encouraging. You help us all play and enjoy being silly. I'm so thankful that our kids get to learn from you. Happy Father's Day!

MG's Play

During the last week of school, MG's class had their final kindergarten play. The play was based on the book Commotion in the Ocean and showcased all the learning they've done about the ocean. The play was in the black box theater, and MG was excited about performing as an angel fish for months. She did a fantastic job--we were so proud of her!

Summer conference

Last month, we loved our time in Florida with friends. I am so thankful for this annual beach time. How gracious God is to bless not only me, but also my children with laughter, rejuvenating time with friends, and lots of sun. Our week was full of bike riding, games and conversations in the courtyard, sand, and freezee pops. Who could ask for anything else? Forgive me for the number of pictures here, I just couldn't decide which ones to leave out.

If Sam was not sleeping or swimming, you could find him circling the courtyard on his "motorcycle."
