We're back

We are back home.  There has been a lapse in blogging due to sickness, lots of travelling, and all the day to day stuff that just didn't allow any free time.  Truthfully, what little free time I had was spent reading on the couch.  Some days that just wins.  Now we are home and I have a free moment so let's recap.

Our next adventure took us to our annual Family Camp with our church.  We have so much fun every year.  There's always a time for family pictures so here's ours.  Just love those silly smiling boys!


The part I really don't enjoy as much is doing your family song or cheer.  I am not creative, but the Captain usually comes up with something amazing.  The song was to the tune of "Edelweiss" from Sound of Music.  Note to self: have children watch Sound of Music so they don't stand there with blank faces when you tell them to sing.


The organizers made t-shirts for everyone and the children's shirts were this bright yellow.  It was easy to spot them, which was nice since there were close to 40 kids and a river near by.


There a nice concrete walking path throughout the camp which also serves as a great place to ride bikes and scooters.  The boys enjoy that part.

There's also the beautiful Frio River you can view from a canoe ride.  The Captain took all the boys out canoeing.  They liked that.



There was a family kick ball game that the Apple family is decidedly not good at.  We missed the step in parenting where you teach your children to run bases.  Oh well!  We had lots of fun and will be ready for next year.

There were several opportunities for family devotional time which was nice.  There was a men's and ladies' teaching time.  We had fun, lost a lot of sleep, but can't wait to do it again.  See you next year!
