Nebraska Fun!

Summer is here and I can finally pay more attention to our blog. We have had a very busy start to our summer. We just got back from a wonderful 10 day visit to Nebraska. Nate did a week long science camp at Calvin Crest, the camp his sister and brother-in-law are in charge of. We worked with 4th - 6th graders and Nate did some fun hands-on science activities with them. The kids had a great time!

While we were there we were able to spend time with Graham, our nephew. He is getting so big and is so much fun! He loves to run around the camp. Nate and I got a good work out this week by chasing after him. We enjoyed giving him baths and then reading to him at bed time. We both wish he (and his mom and dad) lived closer to us.

"Graham you are such a little stud!"

Graham loved his pants because they were like his Uncle Nate's pants.

While we were in Nebraska, we were able to see our best friends Rich and Darcie and their girls Grace and Joy. We had so much fun spending time with them too. Here are some pictures of all of us at the Omaha Zoo. What a fun and hot day it was!

Taking a photo break.

"Is the water refreshing Joy?" She didn't want to leave it!

My best friend Darcie and I. Oh how I miss having her here in Michigan.

Craig, Anissa, and Graham. "Hey Graham, the camera is over here!"

"Graham...look at the camera!"

"Come on Grace, don't be shy for the camera!"

"Come on Graham. Let's keep walking! You can do it!"

What a fun week we had with our family and friends! Now we are back home and ready to enjoy more of our busy summer. We have tons of stuff planned...another science camp in Grand Haven, Vacation Bible School, camping, a wedding, and much more! Wow!! I know it will go fast!
