Cherry Hill

We love Cherry Hill and hope to make it a yearly tradition. We got there on Friday about noon and set up camp. We were gifted a new tent and hadn't set it up yet. It was pretty little - especially compared to the others around us! But that's okay; we just had to sleep in it. Savanna slept with Julisa in a separate tent, and Julie slept on a comfy bed in the back of the van. Me, Kayden and Kennedy slept in our cozy little tent, and we all had mats or air mattresses, so it was pretty comfy. We all did great! Paul and Julie took care of all the food while we were there, so it worked out great for us! They had yummy food. We enjoyed the many things there are to do there and had such a great time. Lots of laughs and great company. We hope more can join us next year.

While there we . . .

went miniature golfing. Such a fun course and we split into three groups. There might have been some goofing off while waiting for our turns.
Swam in the pool and tried to avoid getting sunburned. Can you spot the boy who has actually seen the sun this summer and so put on sunblock and was good to go? The more "seasoned" boys wore swim shirts. Worked on perfecting the dive. Kayden and Kennedy worked on this for a long time, and got really good.
Spent a good share of Saturday on the waterslides and loved seeing grandma go down Cardiac Canyon. We were amazed that not only did she try it, but she went several times! Climbed the rock wall. Kennedy and Kayden were experts and zipped right to the top. Made "jiffy pop" popcorn for the first time. It took lots of concentration. Enjoyed all the attention in the pool. Catching a nap when we could.
Relaxing on the lazy river. Enjoyed the cherry trees and wished we could reach the top of the trees to pick them! All the lower ones had been eaten already, although they were not quite ripe.
Stayed up all hours in the night talking and sharing secrets. These two BFF's were excited to be together.
Enjoyed being with his buddy again. Played aero-ball. It's harder than it looks. It's a great workout, though!
Hit several balls at the batting cages. We learned that Kayden and Kennedy are naturals and that they should start playing this sport immediately! Seriously, they didn't miss a ball and had a great swing. And Kennedy had never picked up a bat before. I think we better look into signing them up.
