Jude and Anna enjoy their treats at Elitch’s: Dippin’ Dots and Funnel cake

I have been away for much of the last two weeks. The kids were in camp this past week, it was called Avid4Adventure and they both really enjoyed it. This was Jude’s only non-soccer camp of the summer and we are glad he had a good time.

The kids had been asking about Elitch’s all summer. I had promised them I would take them, so Saturday was the day. We got there before it opened and were one of the first people in the park. They went on plenty of rides in the morning and then headed to the water park in the afternoon.

We couldn’t stay as late as we wanted at Elitch’s because we had to head to Keystone on Saturday evening. Marcy had stayed home to help get the house ready and pack for our trip.The Dahlens drove out from Iowa on Saturday and we met at the condo on Saturday evening.

We had a pretty quiet first day of the vacation. Jude watched some of the Arsenal game in the morning and then we went down to Keystone Lake in the afternoon. We ended the day watching the PGA Championship golf.
