Summer Camp 2012: VBS

Colin attended a week of VBS with his BFFs, Colton and Mady!

They had a great time spending the week together, singing, dancing and learning about and how-to TRUST GOD!

On Friday, the families were invited to attend the afternoon worship time.

It was so great to see Colin and his friends singing and worshiping our Great Father in Heaven!

Everything is possible with God.

Summer Camp 2012: Bricks 4 Kidz

One of Colin's day camps was through Bricks 4 Kidz.

This program travels all around the Houston area and happened to be in Cinco Ranch for a Star Wars and NASA themed day camp!

Colin and his buddies Cooper and Aiden registered for it and had a BLAST!

They were all asking when they could go back and if the Mommys would sign them up again quick!

They got to build an individual space ship "like the REAL ones at NASA" and team build an x-fighter jet from Star Wars.

Below is an after pic of my (toothless) boy and his prizes.

Summer Camp 2012: baseball camp

Our summer calendar is CRAZY!

Colin is involved in several camps throughout the summer and I am planning on posting on each one. Wish me luck!

First out of the gate is the summer baseball camp hosted by the Cinco Ranch HS coaches and alumni. The other Katy HS coaches were there too!

day 1 was all about "warming up", team building, and catching.

day 2 was centered around throwing and fielding techniques.
each player was timed running to 1st base, around the bases and got to throw to a radar gun.
Colin's times are as follows:
to 1st base: 5.02 seconds
from home to home: 18.34 seconds
pitch speed: 37 MPH
throwing distance: 85 feet
Seriously...who is this kid's dad?
Oh yeah...a baseball minor league pitcher that threw a 93 MPH fastball, left handed!

day 3 started fielding and batting stations

day 4 completed the stations and they had a scrimmage game

At the end of the camp, Colin received a "report card" and a camp t-shirt.
He had a lot of fun playing baseball and spending 4 days with his buddies, Michael, Cooper, Aiden, and Logan.

Watching him in his element was just giving me a lot of hope and created future dreams for my little slugger! He is such a natural born athlete...I can't wait to see what God has in store for him!
