I love summer trips.
Yesterday I talked a bit about our trip to Austin and the simple and fun things we got to do.
And last night I got to thinking that the most fun I've had is
when I am just doing simple things.
Not having to spend lots of money on outings, just kinda hanging out with friends.
Either at a cookout, neighborhood block party,
or watching the kids run around.
That last one is a bit hard to do, running around.
What with living in a suburb and all the crazies out there, parents are usually paranoid (and rightfully so)to let their kids run around outside playing like we used to do.
This is why, when the opportunity to send my child away to camp for the summer, I considered it.
I have to admit that I was a bit nervous at first to send my soon to be 10 y.o. son away for two weeks!
I've never sent him away before.
EVER!!!
But the more I talked about it with other parents and people in general that had gone to summer camps as children, the more I got more relaxed about the idea.
So off to Camp Huawni he goes!
Well..in June anyway!
In the meantime we are getting ready by mapping out our trip on the web, showing him some videos on youtube.com
so he can get more familiar with the camp.
It looks like lots of fun and we can't wait to go see it in person!
East Texas is beautiful so the drive there will be very nice.
Do you send your kids to camp?
Is it a local camp or a going away camp?
I'd love to hear your stories.
