Catch-up Post

July was a very busy month for us. I was working in the kitchen at camp which while it had its benefits, much of the rest of things got put on hold. So here is a little of what we did in July.

We started July with our annual running of the Peachtree Road Race - the world's largest 10K road race. A friend from church who volunteers at the race snapped the picture above after we all finished (the guy in yellow is one of Scott's housemates). Then the picture below is in our matching Peachtree T-shirts after we cleaned up.



Scott's house, The Hot House, held a pig roast. It was quite interesting as I had never seen one before. The meat was excellent!






Molly and Emily went to camp with their friend Corrie. Peter also attended camp and Matthew attended day camp, but I did not get any pictures of them. I don't necessarily do a great job documenting the whole camp experience. In fact I think they are "out of sight, out of mind" as all my children claim that they are the only campers in their cabins who do not receive mail or care packages from home. Oh well....


Then we finished up July with Emily turning 10. All in all a busy, but fun month.

Camp Dedication Day

We got to spend Saturday down at Camp Westminster for their Dedication Day. The kids all had a great time doing many activities and we enjoyed seeing Scott, Amy and Katie. We have missed them!

We actually got Anna to ride a horse which I consider a major accomplishment as she spent the first two weeks being terrified of our two dogs and three cats. She will now pet the cats and the smaller dog, even though I have tried to convince her that the larger dog is actually much sweeter. But she loved riding the horse and she also loved being in the pool.

Amy directing things at the barn - where she is happiest!

Grace was happy to see her big brother!

Scott was able to take Matthew for a ride on the tractor.
