Summer camps

Colin was so excited to start his sports camp this summer. At camp they learned how to play basketball, soccer and baseball. Everyday I would ask Colin what his favorite sport was and it changed every day. To make it fun for the kids they had a different theme every day. Below is wacky hair day.



The theme for this day was color day. Colin is out there on the grass in the orange shirt.


They were each given a basketball that they got to keep. Here Colin is practicing his dribbling.


Sports day.


Shooting some hoops.

Colin has lots of energy so when he came home exhausted every day it was wonderful. He sure slept well at night.
Austin participated in a tennis camp and had a lot of fun. This was his first time playing tennis and he got the nickname of arms because he would hit the ball so hard and far. Of course in the game of tennis you are trying to keep the ball in the court but I think Austin had more fun trying to hit the ball over the fence surrounding the court. Maybe we'll just stick to soccer.




Of course we can't forget the cell phone! Austin has been begging for a phone for the past 2 years so we finally caved in and got him one before middle school started. So far so good-the phone is a great way to hold leverage over his head.

Colin is so ADORABLE in those pics! Cute, cute kid.

How exciting for Austin to get a phone. I think that's still a ways away for us.
