Family camp day 5

We started the day with some music in the forest.

We played with magnet tiles for a little while.

Liam and his friends caught a lizard. They named him Phil. All the kids wanted to pet him.

There was cookie decorating in the lodge, and Bill made an emoji cookie.

River made a keychain for his secret buddy and I made something for each child to take home to remember camp.

After lunch, Liam and I played Dragonwood while Willow watched the Lorax with a group of kids.

Bill and River took a nap together.

The kids all played in the pool with friends.

Willow found a really cool caterpillar.

The banquet theme was music so we all had music related costumes. Willow and I wore our matching dresses from Hawaii with spice packets around our necks so we were the spice girls.

River had dollars and a Hello my name is Johnny name tag on his shirt – he was Johnny Cash.

Hayden told River that he was his secret buddy and had been putting little surprises in his mail bag all week. I asked River if he had anything he wanted to say to Hayden, and he looked him right in the eyes and said, “Thank you. Do you have any more presents?”

River loved hanging out with his teenaged friends, including Ryan and Benson. I was so impressed by how kind and caring the older kids were this week.

The banquet included lots of dancing and face painting.
