summer camp



Well, summer is in full swing and Kaeden has started his camp sunshine parks and rec. camp. He loves it. The first week was wild west themed and they made adorable wanted posters and s'mores for their cooking day. This week is outdoor adventure week, complete with a nature hike, trail mix making and a gold nugget hunt. Fridays are swim days so the campers get to stay until one instead of 12. It's been a great thing for Kaeden to interact with some kids in a structured atmosphere.

Ella is enjoying some one on one time with mom while Kaeden is at camp. I took her shoe shopping last week and she was totally in her element. LOL. She's my little mini me. We have been spending a lot more time as a family this summer and I think we've all enjoyed it.

We took a drive to Bodega Bay on Saturday the 21st and had a blast flying Kaeden's new dragon kite. Ella loved the freezing water and didn't want to get out even though her teeth were chattering. I miss the beach so much. I hope we'll be home in San Luis Obispo before all of summer is gone. God willing.

I can't believe how quickly summer is approaching. Swim lessons have already started for Kaeden at Cavanaugh pool where he is well on his way to advancing to the next level. I'm so proud of his willingness to try everything the teacher says.
Ella is very much our little princess and enjoys watching her big brother in EVERYTHING that he does. She is ready to start gymnastics with mom, so that will be her big activity for the summer.
