Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
We headed down to Naples on July 3rd to spend a week in our favorite place!
We played dominos…
Bought fireworks…
Ate at Skillets…
Went to the beach (just once because it was SO hot)…
Shot the fireworks on the 4th…
Swam in the pool a lot…
Went to see the new Indiana Jones movie…
Worked on some special crafts…
Went out to dinner at all our favorites…
and just enjoyed being with GJ who is doing great after her knee replacement!
We love Naples!
Hello from my sunshiney girl!
Make it a great day!
Samantha has been killing it at swim team this summer and last week she was recognized for it!
My guppy of the week!!
Go Samantha go!
Maxwell got home from Falling Creek on a Friday and packed back up to leave for Boy Scout camp on Sunday morning! He had a good partner though…
Yep, Robert went to Boy Scout camp for the whole week too! He’s a good dad.
Some pics of the accommodations…
From the stories I heard, it sounds like it was a great week – nothing luxurious about it and the bathroom was…lacking – but a great week nonetheless! Maxwell earned 7 merit badges – Shotgun Shooting, Environmental Science, Emergency Preparedness, Search & Rescue, Reptile & Amphibian Study (still to be fully completed!), Animal Science (oh, the stories from this one!), and Wilderness Survival. A very full and productive week! Robert completed the adult IOLS training (Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Skills).
Sounded like everyone had fun shooting shotguns!
Animal science! I think Maxwell learned how about shearing a sheep…and about castrating a “kife”! Also, “sheep are shtupid”!
For Wilderness Survival, Maxwell slept out in the woods with nothing but what was in his hands. Better him than me!
Maxwell cooked jambalaya for the troop one night! Go chef Maxwell!
I’m so proud of all these scouts, especially Maxwell!
We are all very glad to have our Scout and our trained Scout leader home now.
They’re both the best, Scout’s honor!
Spencer had a great time at Bucky Ball last week. It’s the best camp around! It’s from 9am to 4pm and Spencer gets to play basketball all. day. long. Can’t beat it! Spencer showed up and showed out all week. In one day he won both Free Throw Champ and Hot Shot Champ! That’s my champ!
He even led his team all the way to the championship game.
He played great and his two shots to tie it in the 4th quarter. They went to a “first basket wins” overtime and sadly the other team pulled out the W. But, Spencer played great!
Thanks Bucky Ball!
