Summer's HERE!!
And let me tell you ... there is NO HIDING the EXCITEMENT!!
We started off with CAMP!
But, of course ...
... our girls went off to Camp AWANA (our personal favorite!).
For those who might not know, AWANA is a club for boys and girls similar to Scouts, except that the emphasis is on learning about and having a relationship with God, Jesus, and the Bible.
Club is held during the school year and the camp is a PERK for those clubbers who apply themselves and complete their handbook during the club year.
We took the girls (plus friends) up to camp and left them there for one whole week!
It is a great experience for the girls and they love being with their friends AND also making new friends.
This was Brynn's first year at Camp AWANA! Clubbers become eligible to attend when they are going into sixth grade. This was also her first time to be at a week-long camp.
The theme for camp this year was America's Red, White, and Blue ...
IN GOD WE TRUST!!
Great Theme: Something we definitely need to recall
to get our country back on track!!
The girls had a wonderful camp experience and they are so excited to go back next year!!
While the girls were at Camp AWANA, we took advantage of the fact that we were going to, for the first time, have the little boys all to ourselves and vice versa.
We took a few days to do our own little camping adventure and we had a really nice time. These boys LOVE water!! They just couldn't get enough of it and as the weather was really H-O-T, we were all to willing to accommodate their requests.
During our time together, I discovered some fun things to do when taking pictures so we had some photo fun!!!
I just LOVE this one!
Aren't those fun???
In Medical News ... we are really excited to announce that our boy Rees is FINALLY generating new bone!!
In the photos below, the 1st skull in each one is Rees in February of this year. He still had very little bone growth and had LOTS of open, unprotected space. The 2nd skull in each photo is Rees just two weeks ago!
TAKE A LOOK!!!
We are super excited!!!
We can really see the difference in these 3rd and 4th photos.
We are really quite thankful to God for this gift! It took a long time but we are finally at this HUGE STEP of improvement. PRAISE the LORD that He has brought us to this point.
