Off to Camp Twin Lakes!

Yesterday we took the kids on a long drive about an hour from Atlanta, to the Camp Sunshine sibling camp at Camp Twin Lakes. We had a few hassles getting there (Stacy broke her glasses and Ryan realized he forgot to bring EVERYTHING about an hour into the 3 hour drive) It wasn't all bad-at least we realized how much the kids were looking forward to the weekend, when they were faced with the possibility of not going because of all the setbacks, lol. Stacy decided she could see well enough as long as she avoided archery :) (afraid she might shoot someone) and we stopped in Newnan and re-bought all the stuff Ryan needed. He felt so bad and is going to do some odd jobs to try and earn some money to pay us back (hint, hint if any body needs an able bodied 13 yr. old to help out with stuff-Ryan is available) :)

We got there, and the kids were treated so wonderful! Specially made engraved name tags, for all the brothers and sisters attending were a nice touch. They got their cabin assignments and met their counselors-then we all went to do some exploring. It was a beautiful place, tennis courts, lake, pool with slide, archery, boating, arts and crafts for the kids to do, etc...I can't wait to hear all about it tomorrow. Only downside has been the weather-but I hope the kids had fun even if they did get a little damp.

I just think it is awesome that this organization cares about ALL the children in cancer affected families. The brothers and sisters of these kids go through so much-they deserve every bit of fun they can get. Thanks Camp Sunshine!
