Normally I do 5 straight days of Camp Tonsofun, but since we just moved into the house & got the 4 problem areas already cleaned, there was nothing more to do so we decided to just have a fun day together. I think it was our favorite day of the whole week because we got to be together & we had a nice, clean house!
The Camp Treats for Friday were these cute little sidewalk chalks. I just left them on the table to let the kids know how much I appreciated their hard work this week.
For our Camp Craft we made official Camp Tonsofun 2013 shirts. The kids got a kick out of this. They were SO dedicated in making their shirts absolutely perfect in every way. It really was fun. I found these plain shirts at Michaels for $2.00 each & then bought some puff paint for a quarter a piece out of the clearance bin. It wound up being my favorite craft the entire week.
While we let the paint dry on our shirts, we decided to have a family picnic at the lake. Opa had a fabulous idea for this. Each of us put our names into a bowl. Then one by one, we drew out a name. Whoever's name we drew out of the bowl, we got to make a special picnic lunch for them ourselves & present it to them at the lake.
Opa got to make lunch for Bladen:
crackers, lunchmeat, cheese (homemade lunchables), juice, & fruit snacks
Bladen made lunch for Craiger:
crackers, lunchmeat, cheese (homemade lunchables), juice, & fruit snacks
Lorien made lunch for me:
a HUGE sandwich with extra pickles, a large pickle on the side, & LOTS of hot peppers
Cadence made lunch for Lorien:
ham & cheese sandwich, a pickle, blueberries, chips, & juice
Taya made Opa's lunch:
a HUGE ham & cheese sandwich, strawberries, juice, & chips
& I made lunch for Taya:
ham & cheese sandwich, strawberries, chips, & juice
When we got back home from our picnic, our shirts were all ready to go. The kids couldn't wait to put them on!
For the day's activity Lorien wrote a skit for Camp Tonsofun. It was DARLING. We recorded it & as soon as we get it edited & on youtube, I'll put it on this blog entry. It is adorable.
And that concludes Camp Tonsofun 2013!
Until next year. . .
