We got a tip at the end of last week about the Torrey Pines Junior Guard camp. We didn't ever get to talk to a real person at the camp, so Monday morning we headed north and thought we'd just show up & see what happened. Well, long-story-short - the big kids got to sign-up and it has turned out to be the funnest week I think my kids have had in a long, long time! They spent the week running, boogie boarding, surfing, learning about the tides and currents, making ocean swims that make their mother SOOOO nervous but proud at the same time, and having a great time. They are already talking about next summer and how many weeks of camp we should sign up for! It's been so great to see them pushing past what they thought their limits were and feeling so bold for it!
Since Truman and I were hanging out this week, we decided to make something special to celebrate the last day for our Junior Guards. We made these "Shark Attack" cupcakes. It turned out to be a little more involved than I had originally planned, but really cute in the end. Truman was great helper and has the potential to be a great sous chef!
