August, the Month of Camps

Wow! August has just flown by, probably because the kids were involved in two fund camp experiences! 

The first was Grandma Camp, hosted by my mom. This was a week of staying overnight with Grandma at the Mountain House, doing lots of fun things. There was swimming, and baking, sewing, feeding chipmunks, decorating hats and shirts, and just lots of fun times going on!  Peter and I drove down to pick them up, and helped Mom, Dad, and Becky hack away underbrush and trees on the property to meet fire code standards.

Then there was Circus Arts Camp in Portland, sponsored by Grandma Jeanne and Grandpa Norm. Here they learned to walk on Stilts, ride unicycles, juggle, create clown skits, do mime acts, and have a good time while performing!

This weekend we're going camping, to end the summer off with a bang!  More to come. . .
