BASE CAMP & ETC.!!!!!

Base Camp starts on Sunday evening and ends on Thursday with a cookout. We missed Sunday because we didn't have transportation. Zachary & Elyse went from Monday night to Thursday night. Tonight is the cookout. Every room in the church was decorated in fish or water scenes. This is the sanctuary. BTW, the lessons were on the book of Jonah (thus the whale's mouth opened on the stage). There were bubbles everywhere!

Elyse's room had pink paper bowls upside down with ribbons coming out of the centers - looks like jelly fish to me!

On Wednesday night, Emily & I went to Qdoba for dinner while the kids were at Base Camp. Thank you, Emily, for a fun evening.

Thursday we met up with Lacey, Emma, Grace, Caleb, Ava and Jaden at Millennium Park. They have a beach, park and splash area for the kids to play. It was a nice sunny day. Emma is Lacey's "nanny" for the week. It is her ministry for Base Camp since Luke & Lacey are the planners of Base Camp and are very busy this week.

Here is Emma racing Caleb along the shore. Caleb won!!!!!

A VERY sandy Jaden sat on his momma - now they both had to take a swim to get rid of the sand.

Jaden isn't afraid of the sand or the water. That is both good and bad. We had to keep a close watch on him. He tends to wander off.

This is the view I had of Zachary all day at the beech. He was very busy digging a river with his sidekick, Jaden.

We will leave GH Friday after breakfast. We have been having a great time at Camp and seeing family.
