Andrew's first prank

A couple nights ago Max got into bed and something kept poking him.

He reached down and pulled out an empty ziploc bag.

He rolled over and was poked again.

Another bag.

And yet another.

He finally pulled out 5-6 bags, bewildered as to how and why they were in our bed.

The next day, he relayed this story to us and asked how they got there.

Andrew, with a huge smile on his face looked at me and said, "I did it when we got back from the Palumbos and I didn't love you or like you or want you!" (he was not obeying when we left and wouldn't get in the van so I told him Daddy would be spanking him when he got home).

Anyway, we thought it was so funny that he set a trap to get back at me!

What a fun week at camp!!

Since Max was the speaker (and did a great job) we all got to go to camp and enjoy all the activities.

It sure brought back lots of memories of when i went to Jr camp.  They still even do Pharoah Pharoah!

The first night of singing, the boys wandered up to the front to help lead the singing.  So cute!

Some people thought it seemed like a hassle since I had our newborn Miriam and 3 other kids with us, but I thought it was great because I didn't have to cook or clean all week and we had free entertainment and family time all week!

One of my favorite things was singing "oh give thanks, unto the Lord, for He is good, yes He is good. . . Oh He is worthy, worthy, for he is good, yes he is good" every time that we ate a meal.

The cutest thing ever was the boys and their "girlfriends".  The girls just thought they were the cutest things and wanted to take Luke and Andrew under their wings.  Pretty quickly, Andrew had a steady "girlfriend" and he certainly was loyal to her!  Other girls would try and talk to him or get him to sit with her or hug him, but he wouldn't even look at them.  He was constantly staring at his girlfriend and wondering what she was up to.  I think he may end up being the clingy type whom girls feel a little suffocated by as he gets older, but only time will tell.

Luke's "girlfriend" of course loved Star Wars so they had a lot in common.
