Playing at the Park: Summer Camp Part 3

Hi! Before I show you some more photos, I want to tell you that I added some pages to my blog. On the "More About Me" one, you can learn just that: more about me. On "Meet My Friends," I put up a picture and a short paragraph for all of my buddies. Please check them out and tell me what you think!

Now, back to the subject of summer camp.

One day, we walked to a park to play on the equipment.















We finally got too tired to play anymore and sat on a bench to talk.



I think that was the best park I've ever been to. Stay tuned for more adventures!

Wagons and Drawings: Summer Camp Part 2

Hello, again, I'm here with more summer camp fun!

We took a lot of hikes throughout the week. On this one, we took turns pulling each other in the wagon.





I was holding a bouquet of flowers I picked! The counselor showed me which plants would dry nicely and wouldn't turn brown. One was really soft and green and called "Our Lady's Bedstraw." Isn't that a weird name? There's also some lavender, which made the bouquet smell good.



At the end of this hike, we were told to pick something we'd seen to draw when we went to the craft house. Addy, Kirsten, and I spent some time discussing what to pick.



Inside the craft house, we grabbed some paper and colored pencils and got to work.



I drew a pink flower...



...Addy sketched a tree...



...and Kirsten made a very realistic picture of a Monarch butterfly.



Ta-da! All of the campers put their drawings on the wall.



More to come!

XOXO,
Kit

A Morning Walk with Coconut

Hello, again. Guess what I did today? Well, you probably already guessed by the title of this post. I took Coconut for a walk! Coconut belongs to one of my neighbors. She pays me $10 a week to walk her once a day. Maybe I'll use the money to buy something for myself. I'm not sure. Anyway, here are some cute pictures.

Surprisingly, she wasn't tugging on the leash like she usually does.



It was so cold and cloudy. The "June gloom" usually clears off by 11:00 a.m. or so, but it's lingering all day. I had to wear the thick sweater and hat that we bought at a boutique during the American Girl Fashion Show a few years ago. The scarf was made by my grandma. Don't you think it's cute? I agree, but it's very unreasonable for this time of year.



Coconut practically begged to play fetch, so I had to agree. Who could say no to that cute face?



Doggies and dreary days,
Kit
