(and a cute dog and cat, well, because)
I can’t believe that summer is more than half over for us. So much has been squeezed in between the “normal” going-ons. It took heading up to the Smokies to finally get us to laze around like slugs (more on that later!). Since the idea of this blog was to help us keep our memories, here’s a smorgasbord of photos that I don’t want to forget about.
Nazeriah had an amazing experience with Camp Anytown – a five-day/four-night residential camp on the campus of Eckerd College. The goal – to give teens “a framework for having hard conversations with people who don’t look like them and an understanding of why that’s important.” Wow. What a week she had. You can find more here: Anytown.
Chayton’s almost last day of school was a walking field trip to the beach in Gulfport – and I was able to chaperone!
Before that happened, his STEM Club presented at an all-district gathering and his science project on how oil spills affect feathers was featured at a school gathering. (Mr. Safety Patrol always had his belt on at school – safety first!)
Then there was that time he built a panda lego sculpture … and became a kitchen ninja (during a Wacky Wednesday cooking session with Tante Jeri).
That time I dyed my hair mermaid colors …
Hanging out in Ohio after camps.
And now onto the cute animals …
