More Camp Choma

ABC Thursday found the kids a little bit tired of Camp Choma :) But they hung in there and had a good time! Seven year old Isabel was the teacher and the kids enjoyed singing abc songs, reading books, and putting together puzzles.

The best part of the day was when Blu came home from the bush and Dawni and I hightailed it outta there for 2 hours of retail therapy in the big city of Choma. :)

Fun Friday concluded our week of Camp Choma. We baked a cake that I am a bit embarrassed to put on my blog, as most of you know that I am an avid cake decorator! However, this project was very last-minute, and the icing recipe kinda fell apart on it, so it is what it is.. :) Behold, the Zambia Cake!!

It shows the country of Zambia, along with a piece of candy showing where Isoka is and one showing where Choma is, and then a cut up fruit-rollup showing the road that goes between the cousins house. It tasted better than it looked. Trust me.

After 2 more hours of retail therapy in the Choma Market for Dawni and I, we gathered up all seven kids and headed to D.L. Lodge, the only lodge in town with a swimming pool. True, the water was green and probably had never seen any chemicals, but the kids had a blast and it was a great end to a fun week together!

Our other two kids were always a bit apprehensive of water, but not Cason!! He was fearless and wanted to be put down. He laughed and screamed with joy the entire time!

Dawni and sweet AJ
