Junior Camp

Jessalyn and Ethan get to be campers at Junior Camp this week.  They are both having a TON of fun.  This is Ethan's first year and he is such a "camper".  He loves this type of activity and just can't get enough of the fun that he's having.  It's been fun for me to watch him become independent...as he has to take care of himself all week.  He's doing a great job.  He was beside himself when he passed the swim test to swim in the deep end.  He worked hard the whole week before to be able to pass this test!

Jessalyn is an old pro at this.  Well..really, it's only her second year, but she has been around many camps as a camp 'rat' so she completely knows what to expect.  She is having fun challenging all the boys in tetherball and can hold her own most of the time.  On the other side she has fun braiding the girls hair in the dorm.  At least from what I can see, she seems to be doing great just trying to be active everywhere she can.

I have taken a bunch of pics...but for the sake of a ton of other campers are usually in them, I probably won't share them here.

Instead, I'll share some super cute pics of Truett.  He is seriously becoming the biggest ham.  As soon as he realized that there are 100 people on the campground at any given time and he can make them all look at him with a quick smile he started to ham it up.  He is constantly being played with by campers...teens and Junior campers.  The adults can't get enough of him either.  The more attention people give him the sillier and more playful he gets.  It's crazy to watch this personality appear almost instantly.  I think he's probably gone be bored when we go home and it's back to just our family to entertain!

I took a string of pics of him today.  He was standing outside...but of course, looking at a group of Junior Campers just doing whatever he could to make them laugh.  It doesn't take much:)
