Cub Scout Camp

Ben spent a hot week at cub scout camp at Camp Miakonda. He LOVED it. He go to learn how to shoot bb guns, sling shots, bows and arrows, ride dirt bikes, fish and lots of other fun things. We all went to family night, but unfortunately it go stormed out before we could do much. Ben is already looking forward to going again next year, which will be the 100th anniversary of Camp Miakonda.

Some Kids Are Too Smart For Their Own Good

Ben wanted to play connect 4 with me. He was the light colored pieces. If you look at the lower right corner, you will see that he trapped me. No matter which move I made, he won. He beat me 3 times in a row. I don't play with him anymore.

My New Work Neighbor

This little fella must have lost his mama. He was wandering around the yard at work for a week. Luckily I only encountered him from the other side of the window.

Big Blue Bouncy Balls

The boys got inflatable bounce balls for Christmas and we finally got them out the day of the block party. Note - although made for children, adults do fit in them!! They are pretty spectacular

Howe Caverns

We took the long way back from Connecticut and stopped at Howe Caverns in New York. We did a 90 minute tour of the caves at a brisk 52°F (outside temp was about 87°F). The caverns were pretty cool and the boys really enjoyed it.
