peek at our week

this past week kept us very busy

drew did a football camp at st thomas.
their facilities are BEAUTIFUL
and the camp was very well run

drew's favorite part?
each day they got to choose a friend and share an entire pizza
:)

my favorite part?
at the end of this week i got an email just for me
(as did every parent)
with 2 pictures ...

one of drew with the head coach



and one of the entire crew

it's funny how a simple unexpected detail like taking an individual picture
and taking the time to send it on email
can be such a fun and positive surprise!!

and THEN ...
while drew was at football camp ...

ben was at basketball camp

it was SO perfect for him
and it's safe to say that i now know
that if ben could do a sports camp every day of the summer ...

he would

he came home excited every day that he got to play with the older kids
that they called him 'fisher' - after the player for the lakers
and
that their team name was 'the flaming barneys'
thank you, junior highers, for your wonderful contributions ;)

most of the week was rainy and cold
we had 2 baseball games cancelled
and
i began to wonder if i was ever even going to need summer clothes

BUT ...
THEN today came along
and ended our week BEAUTIFULLY!!

we were able to have our first REAL day at our beach
and it was MARVELOUS!

summer is in full swing ... AND WE ARE LOVIN' IT!
