This past weekend, we went to visit "Camp For All". It's a camping facility about an hour away that was built for children who have chronic illnesses or any type of disabilities. Lily's teacher told us that in the fall she will be a camp director for CampLife, which is a camp that is held at the Camp for All facilities. Children with disabilities and their siblings can stay there overnight for a weekend and enjoy riding in canoes, rock climbing/zip line, swimming, arts/crafts, archery, horseback riding and more. Each child is assigned their own personal camp counselor. Camp for All had an open house to commemorate their 15th anniversary. The general public was allowed to get in for free and enjoy some of the activities that the campground has as well as hot dogs, cotton candy, ice cream and a small carnival. We had a great time! Steven was visiting us and we're so glad that he was able to come too. The facilities look really great and the girls are excited about being able to go there again in the fall. Natalie was even brave enough to do the rock climbing and the zip line! Lily really enjoyed the carnival games. She loved the mini golf, hockey, and basketball games. Here are some pics from our fun day at Camp for All! Sorry some of the pics are out of order...

Natalie & Lily
Lily made this adorable Lightning McQueen car last week at school! It's made from a cardboard box, duct tape and paper plates. She had lots of fun decorating it!
Natalie has been taking ice skating lessons for the last few weeks. She really loves it and has learned so much! We are so proud of the progress that she has made!
