Interview With Camper Heaven Brandt




Our camper has returned!! She has brought with her numerous stories, songs and verses to share! She said she most definitely wants to return next year! She was scheduled to ride the bus home on Saturday morning, but elected to come back with me Friday night instead. She gave it some serious thought, but several of the girls in her cabin (Cabin 5) were leaving with their parent's so she decided to surprise the rest of the Brandtitos by returning a few hours early. (Plus her cabin leader said she had been a little homesick, only on the last day though). Before going home, Heaven showed me around some of her favorite places, introduced me to several of the girls she'd met, and had dinner with me at the dining hall. We also went to the closing awards ceremony where the campers who had placed highest in the sporting events at camp received their medals/ribbons & also where the campers performed a few of the songs and verses they'd learned throughout the week.

Heaven said her favorite activity was zip lining, but she also enjoyed the archery and sharp shooting. She said now that she knows what to expect, next year she's going to practice her skills before camp so she can be competitive against the other kids. If we will only buy her a bb gun or bow and arrow that is.....

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
