Summertime, Summertime, Sum-Sum-Summertime





Things are going relatively well at Summer Camp Mama and Daddy.  Since idle hands make the Devil's plaything (or whatever that saying is), Jamie created a well balanced schedule of educational activities, musical opportunities, exercise for Mama and Daddy, arts and crafts, and field trips that will allow us to keep Duncan busy and maintain our sanity.  We're in our second week and have enjoyed such activities as muffin tin painting, water play, homemade kazoos, nature bracelets, and music time.  Duncan and I took our first trip to the library on Friday while Daddy was picking up his new car.  Technically, Duncan has been to the library before, but this was the first visit exclusively to borrow books for him.  The Amenia Library is literally the size of our dining room and living room together, but it was a gold mine for Duncan, who enjoyed picking up anything he wanted to borrow.  We've been walking to school three days a week, and Duncan has enjoyed watching the construction of the new gym and its requisite trucks, tractors, dirt piles, and other excitement.  Grandma and Grandpa came this weekend to catch up before all our schedules get too crazy in July.  In a little while, we're off to the bank to open that savings account, finally.  Tomorrow, we're hoping for some quality baking time, and Wednesday we're off for a field trip.  It's a secret for now, but we should be able to take some great pictures.  Off to the bank...
