Church Camp

Last week Chris took Wesley to church camp for the second year in a row.

Wesley quickly found a crayfish.  The kid is obsessed with animals.

Here is a picture of Lake Chilly Water and the slide the boys did. That's Wesley and Jacob walking.

Wesley found a little turtle outside their cabin.

He also found a little lizard that he carried around for two hours until Chris convinced him to let the little guy go.

They did different activities this year than what they did last year.  Here Wesley is getting suited up for the big swing.

Ready to go at the top.

Here is the video of the slide.  I think I might have chickened out like some of the other boys did.

They have to bring over the stairs to get the boys down.

The boys also did cool craft projects.  Wesley painted a ring catcher.

They hiked to The Little Water Fall.

The first time Chris went to Camp McCall, he was seven years old.  He slipped on the rocks and busted his chin and had to get stitches.  Thankfully, everyone was safe on this trip.

Despite the cold, look how happy Wesley is.  When I look at all the photos from Camp McCall, what strikes me is that Wesley looks so incredibly happy in all of them.

Wesley made a ping pong ball catapult.

The boys did canoe sinking.

We don't have any pictures or videos of the canoe sinking because Chris and Stephen took the opportunity to do The Drainpipe.  The camp doesn't allow the little kids to do it because the pipe shoots you out at 30 mph. Here is a video of Stephen going down the Drainpipe.
Chris and Wesley went canoeing.

The group from the church Chris grew up in.  Stephen took this picture.

I think Lydia was more than a little jealous when she saw all the fun activities on the camp video.
