Colton at Sky Ranch - Rockwall

Colton was pretty hesitant and clingy on the way to Sky Ranch. I was worried he would not want to stay. However, when we got there, he ran right into the cabin! I had to ask him to come back and hug us and say good-bye. His counselors seemed so nice and like they were great with the little ones.

At pick-up, his counselors said he filled the cabin with fun and that he kept everyone laughing and having a good time. He said he is already ready to go back!

Jack Ranger at Sky Ranch - Booker T

Jack Ranger was in a cabin with both 4th grade and 5th grade boys and he loved it. He especially liked his cabin, Booker T, because they had a living room with sofas where they hung out and played games.

During pickup, his counselors said that Jack Ranger was a strong Leader in the cabin. I was so proud! They said he did what was asked and encouraged the other boys to listen to the counselors and make good decisions.

Ranger's favorite part of Sky Ranch was jet skis. When we picked him up on Friday he wasn't ready to come home so that is a sign of a great week!

Cadie at Sky Ranch - Joy Street

This was Cadie's first time in Sky 3. She had a great time and made a new friend - May. I loved that she got the "Care Bear" award. At pickup, her counselor said she was really caring to both the girls and the counselors. They said he was very sensitive to anyone who wasn't feeling well and that she was encouraging and kind. There was one girl that really wanted to go home, and Cadie came alongside her throughout the week.

I loved seeing her smiles in the pictures. Most of the pictures have her real smile so I know she was having a good time. Her favorite activity was still the torpedo and I loved that there are good pictures of her on the torpedo. Her favorite night even was Mission Impossible. She liked all her counselors and said she especially connected with Grace.

Happy Father's Day - Sky Ranch Dropoff

Father's Day this year included a gift box from Foxtrot, a kinda gross omelet that I made (sorry Grant), and dropping off the kids at Sky Ranch. I am so thankful for a Dad that loves our kids well.

Grant posted on facebook, "This is the first year all three of our kids are old enough for overnight camp at #SkyRanch, which provides an exceptional fun and safe Christ-centered camping experience! Erin and I dropped them off yesterday in East Texas, and my dad came along for Father's Day. We are so impressed with the additional health and safety precautions/training Sky Ranch has implemented this year and we're very grateful that this part of our kids' summer tradition can continue. We're also super excited about going to family camp together at Sky Ranch Horn Creek (in Colorado) later this summer!".

It's pretty fun that this is our first year with all three kids at camp and we have a kiddo in Sky 1, Sky 2, and Sky 3. We feel like we have big kids!

I took the week off work and am SO excited about time with Grant, sleeping in, eating out, catching up on projects and being in a quiet house.
