Labor Day

Labor Day at Woodland is always fun. We have family camp. This is a time where families come to enjoy the camp atmosphere and spend quality time together. On Friday night, we swam in the pool with the Gray family, then Kevin, Ethan, Kevin Gray & Nora Jane spent the night in a boxcar. Saturday, we continued to play at the camp, roasted marshmallows by the campfire (yes, we at smores) and Kevin & Ethan slept in a cabin at the Heritage Camp. On Sunday we enjoyed worship with all of the families at the camp, then we ate a meal together. Sunday night, we all slept at home. Monday we enjoyed a picnic at the pool with the Gray family and we really enjoyed the pool. We knew Kevin would close the pools on Tuesday, so we wanted to make the most of them. Eli was exhausted, but wouldn't fall asleep with so much activity, so Kevin put Eli under his shirt to help distract him. He slept nicely in there, but they were both pretty sweaty.

Ethan was so proud to bring home a Katydid that we found at the pool. It is missing two legs, so we thought we would rescue it. We needed something to bring it home in, so we used our empty "Famous Amos" cookies box. It looks like we are doing an ad for "Famous Amos" because Ethan wanted his Katydid in the pictures. He affectionately named him "Toad". All in all, it was a great weekend!
