Anna goes off to camp

This was a quiet week after all the excitement in Keystone last week. The kids enjoyed being back at home after three of the last four weeks away. Lots of time spent in the park, on the trampoline and then we bought Jude a new goalpost after they took the ones at Veterans Park away. Marcy and I started playing one on one soccer with Jude in the backyard again with the new goal.

A big downpour bought some flooding near our house

We had several afternoon thunderstorms this week as is typical this time of year. Anna decided to get out in the rain and go to the corner near the park that always floods.

At the lake on the Herman Gulch hike

On Friday, Marcy took Jude and Anna (and Olive) on her favorite hike. Just off I-70 before the tunnel is Herman Gulch and the kids had not done it before. They managed to do it quite easily and were done in time for lunch at Chimayo in Silverthorne.

Snuggling with Olive this week

Today, Anna went off to camp. It is an Avid “Paddling” camp in Buena Vista where they are camping. One of her best friends from school is going and we think she will have a blast. This is the only camp of the summer for Anna (I think she did four camps last year) and we were comfortable that they are minimizing the health risks. It gives just a little bit of normalcy into this crazy year for the kids.
