Camp Hopping

We have spent the summer hopping between Grandma’s (Sidell) camp in Beddington and Nana’s (Peterson) camp in Lincolnville.  I know, we lead tortured lives!  A couple of weeks ago, we headed to Nana’s for another Peterson Family fun-packed weekend. With all of the additional kids around (Amanda’s boyfriend’s kids), Nana’s camp is starting to resemble Grandma’s camp. 

Bodie has been obsessed with Lobsters all summer.  He talks about them constantly and tries to hit everyone up to buy him one. He certainly hit the jackpot when he asked Beepa for a lobster. It wasn’t long before they were on their way to the store to buy Bodie, and only Bodie, a lobster!  Lucky guy!

Amanda was kind enough and had energy enough (you know, that kind of energy that you only have before you are a mother and have to wipe bums and break up fights all day long every day) to organize some activities for the kids.

I especially love the Mike Tyson tattoo that Soren painted on his eye

We been to camp enough now that the ducks know right where to go!

We won’t ask how or why this catfish died, but there it was, floating down the lake as the kids were taking their evening bath.  Gross but kind of cool.  To save other swimmers and bath-takers, we threw the dead catfish into the fire—the coolest thing that could have ever happened according to Soren!

 

A little family resemblance. The only thing missing is Soren!And what would camp be without the nightly (and all day) fire for s’mores. 

Just another rough day in our lives.
