Canal, Caverns, and Graffiti!

   LIFE IS BUSY!!!!!!!!!!  SO THANKFUL!!!!  We are looking forward to a normal summer full of family time and adventures.  We kicked it off with a few trips at the end of the school year.

  First up was a trip to the Canal Museum in Easton.  I was very excited to be able to serve as a chaperone for the twins' class.

First up was a ride on the Canal Boat!


The class read a book all about life on the canal back when it was running.  They learned so much from this book!


Next up - they learned how to wash clothes like they did back then!






They used conch shells to call to each other while on the canal.

All the kids had a chance to make a sound in the conch!









Quick break for lunch -- Cam invited me to sit by him - so sweet!




This station was all about Simple Machines.




And finally -- the kids pulled the canal boat!


 

The kids really enjoyed their softball and baseball seasons.



Allie definitely enjoyed her games more than Cameron's games!

Friday night movie night is still a favorite family tradition.


 Time for our next adventure....


Crystal Caves!















Mike then took us on a hunt for cool places around Kutztown.  We came upon this neat dam.




And then the Berks County Graffiti Bridge.


This was my favorite artwork!









 Time for a Brewery stop....remember - Michael was in charge of this adventure!

 Back home in Coopersburg - my peonies were very beautiful this spring!


 We attended a really nice community Memorial Day event.



 
Then went for a 2-mile run!

The twins learned how to wash my car....we think this could be a new source of income for them!

The deck is finally done!




BRING ON SUMMER!
