Sweet Smiles

 Where does the time go…?
We've been home from China over two years now.
Two years later and we can't remember life before her.

Camp Mom 2012

This year at Camp Mom...
the skies were blue

the water was warm


we were lucky ducks 
spending time together

Another day...

brings another adventure

a new hobby


 bravery in the water




On today's agenda...

we'll take a field trip to our favorite place

 reach new heights



take leaps of faith

and keep our cool

This morning is momentous...

one of our campers woke up 
as a teenager today

13

now the younger campers 
look up to him even more

Camp Mom is all about...

appreciating nature


keeping cool

 bonding


jumping in the sprinklers

 teamwork

and imagination


a chicken...

 and a game of chicken

Today is another perfect day...

to go fishing



to take a walk in nature 

we have plenty of sunscreen


See you tomorrow
