Pine Springs

Joy loved these stilts.  Even when she wasn't feeling good they made her happy.  She started crying a lot Sunday night and complaining her throat hurt.  It went on and off Monday. 

Every time we saw Paul he was on the gaga ball pit.

 Joy on the zipline.  How offended she was that they though she'd need help!

Legos for op time

Not feeling well but happy to make a sand castle in the driveway

We did get to swim

S'more

Joy did get to have a lot of fun even though she was sick.  This night, Monday night, Joy kept crying and crying and crying incoherently.  I'd get her back to sleep and it'd happen again.  I was desperate.  She was keeping the whole cabin awake.  I called Mom, who happened to get up and look at her phone.  She came and got us. We stayed at Polaris and Grandpa came and got us the next day.  A trip to the doctors showed she was positive for strep.  Not the way we wanted to end camp, but I think she'll still have happy memories of it.

Paul did awesome at Springboard.  He was very dirty and had no voice when he got home. I think he'll be eager to go back.
