Bregon's Week of Camp
It's been very hectic this past week at my house for some reason.
I'm not certain how I managed to forget, but Fencing Camp snuck up on me and took me by surprise.
I found out this past Saturday that it was going to start the following Monday.
There was just one teeny little problem. Bregon already was in the midst of attending film camp at The Renzi Center each day!
This meant that I would have to get Bregon up at the crack of dawn and get him ready (not an easy feat for any teen!)
Then I would load up the babies and run him to the Fencing Sal for early drop off so that the babies wouldn't get off schedule by too much and be home in time for their usual breakfast-time.
Nap time for the babies is usually at ten each day, and pick-up for Fencing Camp ended up being at noon.
This means that we have had some cranky babies all week, but somehow we have managed in spite of it all!
Then, after Fencing Camp, we run home, unload everyone, get Bregon changed, deodorized(yes it's that important) and fed a bit of lunch before heading to Film Camp for the afternoon.
Twice this week during lunchtime, I have also had to oversee the application of stage make-up for his film shoot as a zombie.
This made things a bit more interesting! Thankfully the babies remember Halloween and aren't scared by the make-up in the least.
In fact, they find it quite hilarious for some reason or another! Boy did we get lucky!
Film Camp ends each day at five which is the babies dinner time, so it's also been interesting trying to convince them that we have to go for a car-ride instead of chowing down on dinner.
They have been more apt to comply this week, however, due to the presence of rather large and interesting construction trucks along our route to camp.
I have taken to stopping in between the parked trucks so that the kids can oggle them and talk about them whenever there isn't any traffic to block!
Luckily the street is basically closed off due to the water-line maintenance!
Both camps will end as of tomorrow, and Bregon will be very sad, I'm sure.
He adores The Renzi Center and all his friends and teachers who work there.
In fact, he was missing it for all of the two weeks he had off in between the school session and camp starting!
Wednesday night, we will all go and check out the fruits of his camp labors and attend a screening of both of the movies that he has been working in and on during camp.
I can't wait to see what the kids and teachers have put together this year!
Fencing camp is almost over as well, but there will be one more session in a couple of weeks.
Thankfully, that last leg of Fencing Camp will be solo and won't run in tandem with any other activities (or so I hope!)
It's been a very hectic week with all of the Camp excitement!
