Officially Introducing: Tuber Sally

Here, finally, are a few pictures of the turtle we found on a walk. Tuber Sally, named by Jadon. When we found "him" he was about a week old, according to the pet store reptile lady. He has quite the personality! A very picky eater... right now he eats baby krill and baby shrimp, and if he gets those two delicacies will also eat the turtle twigs filled with vitamins and calcium. He is a household delight for now :o)!

28 week Belly

The best of week 28! Probably won't have many more belly photos for a while. :o)

Family Camp at Grace Adventures

We had a very refreshing week at family camp again this year - and it couldn't have come at a more perfect time! From staff to accommodations and food to activities, this has got to be one of the best places to vacation as a family.
We had amazing teaching, the kids absolutely loved their groups and made a ton of friends, several of which they made last year and remembered. The food was incredible - where can you camp and have fresh salad bars every day?! The kids loved the food too, huge bonus. The activities were tons of fun too. Bryce and Jadon got to shoot BB guns and bows & arrows, Elie and I did crafts, Jadon was extremely excited to ride the banana boat, Elie loved jumping on the water tramp, playing on the beach with friends, s'mores around camp fires, horse back riding, and Bryce and I even got two dates! Here are a few highlights.
