Skateboarding Camp - Minor Injuries

Pete sustained some injuries at skateboarding camp. Nothing major, but we had to be careful for the next few days when playing Ship Attack.

Skateboarding Camp

Pete had a good time at skateboarding camp.

He will be going to inline skating camp later in the summer.

Come back tomorrow to see some of his skateboarding injuries.

Tunnel Cache

Pete, Sam, and Dad found a fun cache in Sterling last weekend. It was a large ammo can located in a drainage tunnel. They proceeded to the playground near Horse Pen Run for a spirited game of "find the stick" and a walk around the local neighborhood.

Subtraction

Mom: Sam, are you ready to work on your subtraction work?

Sam: I'd prefer to put it in the sub-trash-can.
