camp mom takes on camp stimey

Thank you all for your kind comments on my last post. It's been a hard week and I am completely out of funny right now.

But I wanted to share my pictures of the Camp Stimey Invitational Field Trip to the National Building Museum. (Go here to read Stimey's much funnier recap.)

Only 2 of my 4 campers joined me, which meant bonus fun! We could take the Metro. Because I only have 2 hands, even I am not crazy enough to take 4 kids on the Metro by myself. (Not that my 12 year old would be caught DEAD holding my HAND. But I still have 3 kids who I don't trust not to fall on the tracks.) Additional bonus fun was taking the kids for a walk around Chinatown in 103 degree heat. If I could have a do-over, I'd skip that part.


Replicas of famous buildings made out of Legos. Including the tallest building in the world in Dubai which my brother helped build. (The real one, not the Lego one. If you could see my brother's sausage-like fingers, you would know he's not so good at Legos.)


There was a WHOLE ROOM FULL OF LEGOS.
Almost as many as I have on my basement floor right now.


She doesn't really like Legos but she's a social butterfly.
All the stickers are from the doctor visit right before.


You KNEW I was going to put this on the internet, Kristen. Heh.


Stimey's, Sam. He takes his Legos very seriously.


The prison I made. Apt.


One of Robin's campers and one of Kristen's. Adorable. We need to do this more often.


This is a Lego representation of the atrium of the building, IN THE ATRIUM.


INCLUDING THE LEGO REPRESENTATION INSIDE THE LEGO REPRESENTATION.
(It doesn't take much to blow my mind, ya'll.)

More fun coming soon. I promise. Thanks for hanging in there with me.
