Camp Hobe

The boys were really lucky this year and were able to attend Camp Hobe. This is a camp for cancer patients and their siblings. They had all kinds of activities like swimming, crafts, singing time, and field games. The top picture is the end of camp sing-a-long. Josh has been singing the songs ever since and just making me laugh. The middle is their "Team" picture. These were the kids that they spent the most time with and their counselors. On the bottom is all the kids and counselors from the day camp.

Josh says his favorite activity was swimming and from the grins I'd say he loved it. He also really liked the fact that there were big water guns for each kid to use. The big cheesy grin is when he was singing his new favorite song, "bubble gum."
Zach seemed to love all the activities. His counselor for the pool thought he was hilarious because Zach kept giving him "titty twisters!" One of their crafts was sand art and he loved to rip the paper and eat the sand. At least he was having fun. The girl counselor was Zach's favorite. She was really cute with him and made sure he was involved in everything.

All in all they had a blast and we can't wait to go back again next year!
