Hi. JED IS HOME!!! I went and picked him up this morning. We were very glad to see each other. He talked the whole ride home but he spoke in a quiet voice. He is VERY tired! He said he had a great time, really had fun but is not sure yet if he will go back next year! He loved everything except giving up his creature comforts! The girls had 10 showers and the guys had 3, the girls used up all the hot water so the guys got cold showers. The kid on the bunk above him rolled around all night, the mattress was hard and every time someone got up to go to the bathroom it woke him up. The food was ok, some days were awesome, fried chicken day, and others were not so awesome, hamburgers that were cold and tasted like "tire rubber"! We don't have any pictures right now because his disposable camera broke. He did have pictures taken and Katrina is sending him some of hers. He changed his digital photography for fishing! He said he caught 1 fish! His friend Lizzie caught the biggest fish in the pond! He paddle boated, and fished in his free time. The outdoor cooking class was fun..you eat what you make! So over all he is happy he went and he had a lot of fun but right now next year is still under consideration! They told me he got a little homesick on Friday because he was so tired, he told them "my mom might need me home now"! but he perked up in the evening.
When we got home at noon we walked 2 blocks to the Red Lion street fair for food. He got fries and a lemonade, we saw Grace, Megan and Jase & some of the Dietz gang. Then we came home and he slept until 5:30pm. Of course after a week of camp all the TVs in the house are on and he is using his computer! Oh and the pizza guy just dropped off our pizza! So all is calming down and getting back to normal.
Tomorrow we are having breakfast with Mom, Dad, and A & Jack, I think Adam, Tiersa and Livi-Mac will be there too. Later in the afternoon Mrs. Walker, Jed's 3rd grade teacher, and her son are picking Jed up to go to a York Revolution game. (they are our local team). They get to go on the field before the game and throw balls with the team, some player from the Orioles will be there and they are sitting with some important baseball person too. As you can tell I am baseball challenged but he is excited to go. The also get to do stuff after the game but he said he might call me to come get him a little early!
So that's what's up here. As soon as I have some pictures I will post them.
Ok, that's all, gotta get ready for my Baltimore homey, Phelps, to swim for the gold!!!!!
Did you watch the opening ceremonies? WOW, really awesome. I just wish they could be nice to the Dali Lama and his monks.
Love, Jed and Kristin
Oh, Hey Ralph...I forgot to tell you what a big hit your card was. This family makes damn fine snow people! Thanks!
