Hay, camp and more camp

The first cutting and baling of hay is complete. It just needs to be moved. Mother Nature delayed it several times with rain and high winds, but it is finally done. Now we will let it all grow for cutting number 2.

Friday we picked up the twins from Flaming Spirit Christian Camp. It is between Oregon and New Point MO and is the best camp ever!! (According to my girls, and I tend to agree, since that is where JD and I both went as kids). They had their cousins Natalie and Tory with them. Rebecca got sick on Thursday night, but managed to pull it through the rest of the week.

As soon as we got home from camp, we unpacked and repacked and headed back out the door to Mission Lake Christian Camp in KS. We were helpers for daycamp for 1st and 2nd graders. The theme for the day was the "Fruit of the Spirit". Our preacher, who was camp dean came up with a great edidable craft--fruit pizza. It was a hit. Also a hit, was the bus ride into the city pool. It had a zero gravity entrance and a two story slide. Even I went down the slide!

We have a two week break before the next camp-which hits right after VBS and the horse show for the county fair.

Fair Projects are done

Rebecca and Elizabeth have their dresses finished. Tonight they turned them in at the 4H building and met with the judges to discuss their projects.

Tomorrow they show their rabbits and chickens and then wear their dresses in the Fashion Review.

Then, Emily will return from William Jewell Science camp and we have a fire department family picnic.

Sunday the twins leave for church camp at Flaming Spirit in Oregon. They return on Friday afternoon, but Emily leaves Friday night to help at church camp at Mission Lake in Kansas.....Are you seeing a pattern here???

As we were leaving for the 4H building this evening, we found 2 tiny tiny black baby kittens at the end of the driveway. They don't act like they are weaned, but we got some milk down them. One is much smaller than the other one. I am thinking they are dumped because they are not wild, but act like they have been around people. Since we live the the country the neighbors are some distance away, too far for these to walked, I have a feeling they got left here. They are cute, but we already have 2 cats, (in addition to all the other critters)
