Camas Days 2008

We love Camas Days!!! Hannah is so lucky to be involved with her gymnastics team and her dance studio because every year they march in the parade and get to do all kinds of fun things during the weekend. This year VEGA and Virtuosity had the stage. The kids got to do a gymnastics exhibition and some of the dance groups did some routines. I left my camera at home for the dance portion, but it was fantastic!! Here are photos of the tumbling fun they all had though. It was soooo hot, but it didn't stop them from putting on a great show!

Zakk is home!!!

Well, six days gone and he is home safe and sound. He had so much fun and I am really glad that I decided to let him try this. He talked non stop for about 30 minutes and then crashed for the rest of the 2 1/2 hour ride home. I will add photos later as they are all on Zakk's disposable cameras he took with him!!! Happy to have him home. We missed him terribly!!

Well, he's there!

The drive to drop Zakk off at camp was fun! Just the two of us. We chit chatted about all kinds of things. He admitted he was a bit nervous, but was also really excited. He is most excited about trying archery. We got there and checked in with the nurse and then the dean of camp. Everyone was so nice that it made it a little(just a little) easier. Then his counselor came and we took his stuff to his cabin. He was lucky to get in the same cabin as his friend which was good. It looked like a lot of the kids knew each other so I was thankful. That was that! I gave him a big hug and he was off! I admit to being a total dork and crying a little after I got in the car. I also admit that going back and getting him did cross my mind. They are not allowed any cell phones or other electronics, so I can't call him. I have a knot in my stomach that will probably stay there until Friday. I know he is having a blast though and can't wait to hear all about it!

Here he is loading up his bag into the car.

Here is Zakk waiting to check in.
I had a few more pictures, but am unable
to upload them right now. I sent Zakk with
a few disposable cameras, so hopefully
he will take a bunch of photos and I'll let
him blog about them himself.

Zakk is going to camp!

Zakk is going to church camp this week. A whole week away from home is a first for him and us! After much thought, I decided there was no way he could NOT do this! He will be going with his friend Nicholas so he knows at least one person there. It is through a church that my friend Beth goes to(Nicholas is her son) and it sounded like a blast! I admit to being a bit nervous though. So the list has been checked (at least 3 times), all supplies bought and packed up. Now to make the 2 hour trip to drop him off. He will be fine. I will be fine.
