Happy Campers!

For the last few years we let the kids pick a week-long day camp of their choice. Summer is a horse fanatic so it's no surprise that she has chosen a horse camp for 3 years in a row. The first year she came home from camp enthusiastically telling us about the benefits of a "partial lease" on a pony. yikes!

Baxter's choice this year was a skateboard camp. According to him, all the kids did from 9 til 3pm was skate on boards or inline skates. Baxter was beyond tired each day, but every morning he'd put on all his gear and sit and wait for me in the car. The sign of a great camp! Parents were banned from the skating area, so I don't have any documentation of his camp, except a happy, grubby faced kid on Friday afternoon when we picked him up.

On the last day of Summer's camp they had a little dressage performance for the parents, so I snapped up some photos. Enjoy!

A good week at camp for Baxter...

p.s. I just found this photo on my point-n-shoot and had to add it...Our two new buddies from the Trek/VW Pro Mountain Bike Team, Zack, on the right, is the team manager and Chris is the team soigneur (massage guy). They were hanging out at Motel Bishop this past week and they deserved to be mentioned here because they went above and beyond the call of duty as house guests. They won me over when the kids asked if they would visit their camps and they enthusiastically said yes! And they took us to an awesome dinner at Leunigs! Fun times! You guys are welcome anytime! :-)
