The past few weeks have been busy -- imagine that, it's summer! A few highlights...
Cadet Camp
Wade is the head counselor for our church's Cadet club (kinda like boy scouts) so he and 10 boys and a few other helpers/counselors headed to Cadet camp Thursday evening through Sunday evening. There were about 70 boys total from several local churches, and they learned wilderness survival skills like navigation, rope making and mapping. Wade lead the navigation/direction finding part. Wade (and the Cadet boys) had a good time, but Wade was sure ready to sleep in his own bed again!
We got a swing set! Wade's boss was getting rid of his and offered it to us, much to our boys' delight. They've already worn through the grass beneath the swings (and I've worn through the spot behind the swings where I stand while pushing!). Levi, our little monkey, likes to flip up-side-down on the rings and hang by his knees from the bar -- he's only fallen and landed on his head once!
Last week was HOT so Wade and I filled over 200 water balloons for our Saturday night crew and we had a blast playing water balloon volleyball in the backyard. It's amazing how fast 20 people can go through that many water balloons!
