Back from Summer Camp now, which was a packed week with no time for blogging. So here’s Christmas and Summer Camp in the one post.
Here we are at a cousin’s house, with the kids opening up their presents. It’s good to see them old enough now to be able to be thankful without being prompted too much.
On Christmas Day we had a quick pause for photos before church. On the wall you can see the advent calendar we finally used this year.
Uncle M sent some presents to us from his current overseas location. Puff was wearing his hat (and new hydration vest thing).
Huff really liked her scarf, which is still big enough to be a skirt for her at the moment.
One of Huff’s favourite presents at the moment is Elf Lego. Dad was helping out a little with the build, but she was mostly able to get it all built by herself!
We were finally at Summer Camp where Dad was working on all sorts of things, and Mum was working on looking after our kids, and a bunch of other kids. Most of the time Dad saw the kids was at meals. Here’s Huff (her new tooth is already coming back to fill in the gap).
Puff also had a great time during the week.
Here’s a rare picture of Dad at camp.
We had some other friends from church at camp; here they are encouraging the kids to pose.
There was a masquerade ball at camp, so the kids had masks. Here’s Huff’s.
Puff’s was a light-up mask so he didn’t have his at dinner, but he was having a good time getting into the swing of the “survivor” theme with his bandana.
There was a lot to do for the kids, and so there wasn’t a lot of screen time for them (though he continues to keep in touch with at least one of his school friends via email).
Oh, and the highlight of camp for the kids? Getting to ride on the scissor lift during pack-up.
There’s no telling what kids will enjoy the most.
We had a quiet day at home today. It was a pleasant change of pace.
