Halloween at Camp Q!

Pimpkin Wink

Rachel was a pink and black cat this year. She was so excited to wear her costume to school!


Each kid cut his or her own pumkin the afternoon before trick or treating.




Looking very halloween'ish!


This year we had a guest trick or treater with us. Hunter, my adopted nephew, helped us out with the little kids. They weren't scared of him a bit!

Dan Dan the Soccer Man!

Daniel has started playing soccer this fall. He wasn't too sure about it when we first got there, but once he figured out what was going on he seemed to have a blast! He even scored! I was so proud! The team did a great job having never met or practiced before the morning of the game. I lost count of the score. I think we tied. Daniel says they won. :o)

Daniel with his coach on the sidelines.

He obviously has talent!

Highlights of Camp Q RV Trip July 2009

I just thought that I would post a variety of pictures of our RV trip through West VA, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Virginia this summer. We certainly had variety... mountains, beaches, Amish, trains, roller coasters and candy. It was exhausting, but FUN! We certainly had a lot of togetherness. The kids had a blast and hopefully will remember this trip forever.

Thank You, Nannie!

I thought I would post a picture or two of my mom here helping Daniel with his reading this August. She spent a whole month with us and held a lesson with Daniel every single day. I can see the results.... the most obvious is his ability to try. Thank you, Nannie. We love you for it!

First Days!

It's that time of year again for new backpacks, supplies and first days of school! I still love the new outlook on things that I remember from my first days of school.

Daniel is at a new school this year, The Morrison School. His first day was last week, August 26th. He seems happy to be there, but WOW... what a lot of new ideas to take in.

To celebrate the first day, we went out to eat at Daniel's favorite Japanese restaurant. He eats better there than anywhere else! We are so happy Nannie is here with us today!



Tuesday, September 1st is Ben and Rachel's first day to school. Ben is in the 6th grade this year.....a MIDDLE SCHOOLER!!!! The first day of school they had a middle school Hawaiian swim party and got free dress. How funny he looks in his swim suit the first day of school! Middle school looks like it's gonna be fun!


They got a lesson first thing on the raising and lowering of the American flag.


Rachel is now a big girl and goes to Sullins!
Mom and Dad were there to see her and her new classroom in Jr. Kindergarten. She was all smiles when I picked her up today!
