Summer camp

Today was the last day of summer camp for the kids.  They celebrated by bringing in a bunch of bounce houses/slides, a traveling petting zoo and a rock wall.  They had tons of free Pizza and Italian Ice, and gave away t-shirts for the kids.

The rock wall was definitely a family favorite this year!  They each tried it three or four times and got better and better with each try.

This little lady loved the ponies - and made sure she got a chance to ride each one!  Neither of the boys wanted to ride...

(Ignore the sounds of the generators.)

Our Fun Weekend

We spent a four day weekend in Vermont to celebrate Grandma's 96th birthday.  The kids always love a good birthday party!

The first two days of the weekend were hot, hot, hot!  We set up camp and immediately went to the lake.  We had a great time camping at Silver Lake.  Swimming was so much fun and so refreshing!

 

We went to the lake every day!  We all came home a little sunburned...

One day we woke up early to do a little fishing.  The kids caught a little seaweed and dad caught a log!  We are getting better... we used to catch nothing at all!  Someday we'll catch a fish.

We went to Quechee Gorge and did an early morning hike.
After the hike, a little shopping and a quick bite to eat...

We headed to the birthplace of Joseph Smith in Vermont. 

It was nearly 100 degrees, hot and humid! 

We were very grateful the visitors center was air conditioned.
