Farris wheel with Sammie and Cammie. Sammie loved the ride and Lauren could not wait for it to be over. I am not sure how Cammie felt.

Lauren's class has a stuffed animal, Cammie the camel. Every weekend one student takes Cammie home. The student then writes a report in the journal on the weekend with the Cammie the camel.

Lauren was picked to take her (him?) home last weekend. We took Cammie everywhere we went last weekend and took a lot of pictures.

We started the weekend with Cammie meeting some Lauren's stuffed animals. It was Friday night and it was nice to just relax with Lauren (and Cammie) after a very stressful week at work. I just was not up to doing anything else but relaxing at home.

Saturday morning we went to dance class and Cammie came along. I put a Ponytail holder around Cammie so that she could have a tutu. Lauren thought that Cammie looked great in the "tutu" that we made for her.

Later that evening we went with my brother, his wife and Sammie to a carnival that was in their town. It was a "Farewell to Summer Carnival". Lauren and Sammie loved it. They had good carnival food and rode some rides, played some games and just ran around. It was a nice evening and I am sure that Cammie had a great time.

On Sunday we had a swim party and Cammie came along. It is late in the year for a swim party. Although it is still warm during the day the pools have gotten much cooler due to the lower temps at night. The kids swam a bit but for the most part just hung out and played around.

That was our weekend with Cammie. I spent Sunday evening making scrapbook pages to put in the journal. I had Lauren write a few sentences about what we did each day. She does a pretty good job but gets in a hurry to get done and then it gets very sloppy. I then get frustrated and make her redo it. I realize in doing these kinds of projects that I could never homeschool her.

She has to take the finished project to school tomorrow and tell her class all about it. She is looking forward to that!
