Harward Cousin Camp

So the kids attended Cousin Camp at the Slacks this summer. The event started Sunday Night with an ice cream social and crafts. Then Monday was crafts, a picnic at the park and a hike up to the Water Falls. Later that night was dinner, crafts and a talent show and making humanitarian kits. It was a day full of activities. Then on Tuesday we went to the Care Center and sang a few songs and gave each of the people there a gift that the kids had made. It was so fun. The kids all had a blast. For the talent show Kendrick did a back flip on the Tramp and did some jumps on his bike. He was getting to BIG AIR! He had fun. Makenna danced with Kate and Hannah, she also did some tricks on the tramp. She had a routine all figured out on the Monkey Bars then got scared. The kids had decided they wanted special music for their parts, Kendrick wanted I Can Ride My Bike With No Handlebars, by the Flobots and Makenna wanted GLAMOROUS by Fergie. It was cute. then on Tuesday afternoon we went to Seven Peaks! What a great time we all had there. Cade took the afternoon off and came to play with us. The 3 days of cousin camp where a ton of fun. Thanks to Cameo and Jason for putting the event on for us.

This is a picture of all the Cousins who attended cousin camp. Sharay, Mason, Rachel, Makayla, Zoe, Kendrick, Reed, Hayden, Makenna, Hannah, Kate, Kale, Preslie, and Brady


This is at the Water Fall that we all hiked up to. It was really cold water but Kale didn't seem to mind.


Sharay, Rachel and Makayla singing under the Water Fall.


Makenna got brave and stood in the water for a minute.


This is Kendrick taking the jump for the Talent Show, he was getting some "Sick Air"



The Girls loved dancing.


Even Uncle Cade (Dad) took a turn at the Talent Show, he sang "There Goes My Life" By Kenny Chesney we all helped him out a little bit, what a good sport.


Reed and Makenna took at break at Seven Peaks for some string cheese and other snacks.


Kale had to take a break from the water for awhile due to a messy diaper! He had a blast.

We can't wait for Cousin Camp 2009! The kids talk about it all the time, they remember the songs, the crafts, things the kids said and did. What great memories. Makenna is still singing the Camp Song that Chelsey helped make up. I can only remeber bits and pieces, so for journal sake I will give it a shot.
The Boys slept on the tramp, the Girls slept on the lawn and sang a funny song. Cousin Camp, Cousin Camp we love Cousin Camp. Sharay make a turtle and named hers Murtal, Mason caught a fish and made a little wish, Cousin Camp, Cousin Camp we Love Cousin Camp. . . . I can't remember the rest but it was cute.
Thanks to all who made this a great memory for our family.
