Camping Activities for Kids

Here are just a couple I have. If anyone else has some I'd love to hear them. We're not taking video games.... Ideas: Photo Scavenger Hunt - I will of course be with the kids but it gets my oldest thinking. Puppet Shadows Flower Pressing Nature Journals Identification - we'll be taking our field guides:) Identifying constellations - I've actually never done this before. I'm very excited! Drawing messages in the sand and taking pix. Rock and shell collecting. We'll also be doing all the "normal" stuff like playing at the beach, etc...

Don't let these moments pass you by....

Today was the first day of our garage sale and as you can imagine we have been so busy for the past week. Last night especially. We were working away and getting ready to walk in the house when I spotted this beauty on our boxwood bush. I was thrilled and went to get my daughter as well as my camera. Matt, Lyshie and I stood watching this beautiful creature for a few minutes. How many times are we in such a rush that we miss God's beauty all around us. Take the time to "smell the flowers".
