Camp Greystone

Samantha went back to Camp Greystone this summer! It was her third summer there and her second time going to the 3 week June session. She had the VERY best time! She had the sweetest counselors and got to be in a cabin again with friends that she met last summer. Hooray!

We loaded up to make the drive…

and spent the night in Greenville the night before drop off where we met up with her cabinmate…

and pretty much all of Mountain Brook that were going to Greystone! ha!

The next morning we made a StarBs run of course…

and then did the “drop and go!” Samantha was excited to be at Greystone!

I then immediately started stalking the photos every day so see my girl. We got lots from the first day of her with her cabin. Such a cute group of girls!

Samantha was sure to tell me that was not her messy drawer in the picture! ha! Hers was on the other side and was much neater. 🙂 Love her!

Lots more camp to come…

4th at the pool

We had a fun 4th of July up at the pool! Spencer was still at camp but the rest of us beat the heat in the water!

Thankfully both kids had a few friends up there!

One of the swim team coaches was running all sorts of fun games for the kids – and she was very good about getting everyone to participate! These girls especially had fun with them…

and won some prizes!

Of course there were splash contests! Maxwell, I mean Gerald, gave a good showing in the biggest splash!

As did Robert! Unfortunately, his ear drum didn’t cooperate. Ouch.

I made a very good showing in the adult smallest splash contest but…no picture of course.

I’ll just leave these here with no comment…

It was a fun day at the pool! The boys then played golf and I went home to make some peach cobbler with my all-American girl!

Happy 4th!

summer days

Sometimes you just get bored of the pool and have to talk your mom into things she really doesn’t want to do…like the jump park! ha!

Thankfully other moms sometime get talked into things like Activate…

Dbat

Between all the baseball games and practices over the past two years, the boys have also put in lots of time at DBat with Trey.

Trey is awesome and I’m so proud of both Maxwell and Spencer and how hard they work.
