LHF Camp - Avery

Avery is finally old enough to attend Living History Farms camp!!

This is a very special camp for our family.
The big girls have been attending for many years,
and I went to the same camp when I was a little girl!
I still remember it as being one of my favorite summer camps!

Avery was so excited to finally get to go to camp,
and especially with her best friend, Owen!
The big girls are going next week, because that is when the
camp they wanted is offered.  But, I couldn't make Avery
go without Owen, so I'm making the trip to/from the farms
for 2 weeks.  A small price to pay for that smile!


First day and they are ready to go!


Avery had a great week, despite the unseasonably cold temps!
Personally, I think cooler is better and with only 1 rainy day, we can't complain.

I was really impressed with how much Avery learned.
She is such a smart cookie and loves to learn and experience new things!
Some of her favorites were the newborn chicks, the cows,
the "stinky pigs" and the indian camp.
She learned a ton about our native americans, and was very detailed
in her explanations of their home, hunting and tools.
I loved hearing all about it especially when she told me how 
people moved into their homes so they had to move,
"probably to another city".  :)

A week older and wiser!

Last day and everyone had a great week!
Avery wanted to eat out with just me, "somewhere special".
She chose Red Robin for their cheese sticks.
Ahh, special.

My big girl. Love you!
