It has been a busy few weeks! We had the grands here the last week of July for Bible School. It was structured as an art camp. On Sunday evening, VBS hosted an art show so the children could show their parents the work they had done. Everyone was asked to bring snacks, so we made “art cookies.” We dipped graham and Ritz crackers in white candy coating and, when they had hardened, the girls drew pictures on them with food markers. Fun! And a hit at VBS!
Our church’s youth camp was last week. DH is the director and he was very busy there. I put together a twenty page “yearbook” for the campers each year, using pictures Middle Daughter takes during the first three days of camp. So those days were pretty much yearbook, day and night. By the time I had that done, my eyes were very tired of looking at the computer screen! I could have used a quiet day at camp overlooking the lake! The campers weren’t there for quiet, though! DH came home tired, but grateful for another wonderful week of youth camp.
