The second 3 day paddling trip looked like just as much fun as the first…but with an awesome waterfall!

Maxwell said there was a small hole in their tent and it rained a little so that wasn’t great…and he said the food wasn’t the best…but I think the rope swing made up for all of that!

We picked Maxwell up from camp last week and he had the very best three weeks! He went on lots of adventures, tried some new things, and got lots of bug bites! ha! Overall a top notch experience!

Off to FCC

June 10, 2022

Last weekend Samantha, Maxwell, and I drove to Greenville, SC to take Maxwell to camp! The whole family was supposed to go but Spencer ended up having a baseball game so he and Robert had to stay home. This was my first time doing the drive on my own but it wasn’t bad at all – especially with Maxwell as my navigation assistant! The other  hitch? I got a nail in my tire right before leaving! Uh oh!! Thankfully GJ’s car was still in Birmingham so we loaded that up and hit the road. We stopped for gas and somehow I got talked into these…

Why not?!

We hit the town that night with friends and tried a pizza place that was really good called Barley’s. There was also a sports bar next door with a huge arcade room for the kids so it was a win all around! It’s so pretty in downtown Greenville on the river walk.

That night I shared a bed with Samantha in the hotel and let’s just say it was not a quality night’s sleep! I was a little concerned about driving 5 hours the next day! But, we got up and going in time to make a Starbucks and McDonald’s stop on the way to Tuxedo, NC for drop off!

It was a quick drop off. No nerves from Maxwell at all and the only goodbye wave I got was from the counselor! ha!

I know he’s going to have the very best 3 weeks!

Two weeks of fun!

August 9, 2021

We picked Spencer from Falling Creek Friday and I was so excited to give this kid a huge hug!! He had the very best time and is ready to go back next year. He made new friends – specifically James, Guy, and Teddy – loved archery, did horseback, climbing, football, basketball and tennis and so much more! Only downside – he got stung by a wasp, twice! Ouch! He signed up for a rock climbing adventure that got rained out and turned into a cool waterfall adventure. He learned how to fold socks and that he likes cereal and syrup! ha! Overall this kid gained independence and had incredible experiences – can’t ask for much more out of two weeks of camp!
