This was Eli's first official summer and he spent it in Y camp. He had an absolute blast and loved all the activities. Each week they had a different theme and kept the kids busy. He loved swimming every day. He also did two weeks of basketball camp and loved it! And we loved how he came home tired each day!
There have been a few "Family Nights" throughout the Summer but Eli hadn't really expressed interest in going. But tonight....he was set that we were going to the last one of the year. We picked up an extra dinner and adopted a counselor for dinner. One of Eli's huddle leaders, Mitchell, ate dinner with us. He was so nice. Everyone there has been so nice all summer long. We absolutely love the counselors and are thankful for the job they do. We can't imagine keeping all those kids busy all day in the hot sun!! After dinner, all the kids got together to do songs and dances and show off their moves from the summer. There was also a silent auction and a slide show. It was very sweet and made me kinda "misty". I am thrilled for all the experiences and fun Eli (and Cole) is having. He told me that he wants to be part of CILT (Counselors in Leadership Training) when he gets "big". I'm soooo thankful he had fun and enjoys the Y as much as we do!
