If you do your best, you will either win or you will learn!

I'm so glad that they are still having the ninja camp that we go to every summer. My buddy, Waylon signed up this year too. He wasn't on my team, but Demian was, and we had a great week. We were on the orange team and I was chosen to do a few of the team challenges. This year was the closest we have ever been to winning the icecream on the last day. Waylon's parents both had to work, so he came home with us all three days after camp. We had a picnic lunch by the creek every day and played down there catching fish and bugs until his dad came to pick him up. I mastered a back flip into Mr Kurt's pool from his diving board, then from the side of the pool at the Tocher's:)

I did ninja camp again this year too, and I had so much fun! The water day was my favorite day at camp. I had fun playing with Jace and Waylon at home too. I'm still doing great at gymnastics and I can go almost all the way across the ninja line now! At the end of our busy week, we went to workout and then two pool parties! We went to Mr Kurt's pool first then went home for a snack and then to the Tocher's pool for more swimming and fun. We were exhausted. I have been memorizing my Bible verses and doing my Bible School homework to earn bonus bucks. I saved 20 of them and bought myself my very own rainbow Bible!

Sunshine Kisses and Summer Wishes!

Papa and daddy finished the roof on the treehouse, they even put clear roofing so we can see the sky! Our crazy school year finally came to an end. We made gifts for our teachers on Mama's Cricket and mama sewed bags for them too. Mama also got us personalized books that are adventure stories about us, they are so cool! We are picking lots of strawberries from the garden and they are delicious. We have been swimming a few times at the Tocher's pool and we started back at Motion matrix. Daddy took us biking on the Greenway when mama worked and mama took us to the park with our friends while daddy was at work. I have been building some really cool Lego creations. We spent a couple of days at Papa and Grandma's while daddy and mama both worked. We played with our cousins, their neighbors and picked lots of cherries! I even pitted a bunch and grandma made me a crisp. A ground squirrel has been getting into the chicken coop and stealing eggs, so daddy got a pellet gun so we could shoot it. We have been target practicing and I'm getting quite good!

My teacher and her kiddos came over after my birthday and brought me a gift. We also went on the zip line and played in the creek, I'm really sad I don't have her as my teacher next year. I started doing gymnastics again and I am getting so much stronger. I love the book about me, it is super special. We have had fun days riding bikes, playing at the park and setting up the inside of the tree house. We helped mama make our teacher's gifts and had a lot of fun delivering them. We also got new water bottles and mama used her cricket to put sister and brother bear on the side. I had a lot of fun playing at Papa and Grandma's and with our cousins and friends. Waylon's family came for pizza and they brought their new puppy. He is so cute, I snuggled him most of the time they were here. Daddy took us fishing one morning after workout, but we didn't have much luck catching anything. We did have fun getting wet though!
