A few family camp pictures

Here a couple pictures from Family Camp in Wisconsin. If you ever get the chance to go, I completely recommend it! Of course, it took us a week to recover but we are all healthy now and enjoying the last few days of freedom before school starts. And staying up way too late watching the Olympics! It was really interesting watching the Opening Ceremony with Lily. She is starting to "get" that she is Chinese and an American. We talked about China's incredible history and their many accomplishments from the past. Of course she was most impressed with the performers' outfits and insisted on having her hair like "the girl who had it up in the front" - I still have no idea what she meant but she settled for a braid.

Lily spent the day practicing gymnastics in our living room although she is considering diving as a possible Olympic dream - if only we could get her in the pool without screaming! Lyra just follows Lily around - she can't do the somersaults like Lily but she can roll and tumble which in her mind looks exactly like Lily's graceful passes. She has been sleeping wonderfully at night which makes her happier during the day (her parents are happier, too).

The Family - looking a little grimy after a week at camp.

Blue Candy? There's nothing in my mouth!
