Camp


Our grandson, Justin is going to camp today and will be gone for a whole week for the first time.  He is apprehensive but excited as well.  It sounds like they have all kinds of really fun activities planned for them.  Tonight they will camp out under the stars.  The weather is to be very very hot this next week and I know they will be doing some or maybe a lot of swimming.  Mail time each day is a very big deal for them so I made him a couple of cards out of stickers.  My friend Georgia is the sticker queen and gave me a few pointers.  I love stickers and have a lot of them but am never sure how to use them.  I think he will like these.  I also made the matching envelopes you see next to the cards.

Aaron, Justin's little brother, is also going to camp this week but his is just in the afternoons.  It is at the Humane Society and called Camp Kindness.  They learn to take care of animals and about different animals and I think they will be responsible for an animal for their week there.  We live very close to the Humane Society but Aaron lives a bit of a ride so he will stay here every other day.  That way his mom will only have to drive it once a day.  Aaron and I have some fun things planned for the evenings.  It will be a busy week for all of us.  

I finished the book The Invisible Thread the other day and I have to say it was one of the best books I have read in a very long time.  Check it out!  I got my copy at the library.

Until next time, happy trails to you...

  5. I hope both of the boys really enjoy their camps. It can be such a special time. Love the cards you made for Justin. I'll bet he will really enjoy getting something at mail call. (Georgia helped me with a sticker card when we were in D.M.)
