Cameron has become more accustomed to his parents being gone at different times throughout the year. Before Jane headed out on a scheduled mini vacation, she and Chris were happy to attend an evening event at Cam's school.
The Unified Basketball awards were on the docket for Wednesday after dinner. The coaches called each player to the front of the room to talk about their accomplishments and growth throughout the season. Each participant was presented with a Unified Sports Special Olympic medal, a certificate and a souvenir husky in honor of the FHN mascot.
Jane was off to the airport very early Thursday to fly to North Carolina to visit her dearest longtime friend, Leslie and her husband, Wes. Back in Grand Rapids, Thursday turned into an eventful evening. A tornado watch turned into a warning and there was quite the lightning show outside. Jane didn't even know about the weather until the next morning when she was in North Carolina.
Cam's mom was also scoping out the N.C. area in preparation for our family trip in August. Leslie's daughter, Ali, will be married at the Biltmore Country Club and we will all attend.
For the first time ever, Cam and his parents will be able to stay in a home instead of reserving a hotel room at their destination. Leslie, Wes and Jane figured out the best way for Cameron to enter their home so we're all set for accommodations. Two new kittens joined their family just a couple of days prior to Jane's arrival. Cam can't wait to see them.
Saturday morning, the air was chilly for the WMML baseball game. Cam and best bud, Brody, played at 11:30am. Their elementary school teacher, Ms. Barbara, was there cheering them on. She hasn't missed a season since the boys started playing.Sunday afternoon, Chris drove Cam to a high school graduation open house for one of Cam's classmates.
And quickly following that stop, father and son were on their way to find Jane at the airport before 5pm. She was so happy to have the curbside pickup from her family. While Jane was away, the Alexa photos that popped up were from Wes and Leslie's last visit to Michigan. Cam is now in full planning mode for our August trek. As he has reminded his parents multiple times..."It's never too early to plan!"
Camology Quotes:
There are times when it's difficult for Cam to make a choice and other times, it's pretty easy. The yearbooks were being passed out at school and we did not pre-order one. When asked about it, our 11th grader responded:
"It's ok. I'm not that interested in getting one this year."
