The Kassel Family Project Life 365

We attended the last Camp MUDD Family Night of the year tonight.  Listening to the kids sing the different camp songs and watching them perform the skits is always entertaining.  While Laura was reluctant to spend the night again, she was really looking forward to the final party.  We said good night to her at about 8:15 pm and headed for home.  I am sad that Camp MUDD ends tomorrow for the summer.  Laura has had a great, fun experience and she is already looking forward to next year.  Thanks Camp MUDD for a great six weeks!

My treat – a Firefly and Lemonade Martini – after a long day at work…

Seven and five and there is *still* no better toy than a big box!  This box was converted into a rocket ship.

While waiting for Laura’s bus from Camp MUDD, John decided to see how high he could jump up on a pole and, then, see how far down that pole he could slide.  He must have done this ten times and laughed hysterically after each time.  Oh, to be five again and find things like this hilarious…

Andy arrived home today about 3:15 pm from Balfour Leadership Training Workshop.  He had a great time with his Sigma Chi brothers at Purdue University, but it is always good to have him home!  The kids and I were all excited to see him and we are glad he is home safe.  Welcome back Andy!  We missed you lots!

The school supplies are ready to go!  John’s list for Unit A is all shared supplies.  Mrs. Hanney replenishes supplies as needed throughout the year.

This is the first year that Laura actually has some supplies that are her own.  For Unit B, she needed a school box for crayons, scissors, and pencil top erasers.

Seventeen days left until the start of school.  Crazy!

Kathryn is here for a sleepover!  It’s been a fun-filled evening complete with a tasty spaghetti dinner, a play performed by Laura and Kathryn, playing, and movies.  The kids have snuggled in to watch the first movie of the night, “Wreck-It Ralph”.  Both Laura and Kathryn are pretty tired from a very busy day at Camp MUDD, so we will see if there will be a second movie of the night…
