We are adding a few more “when I was little” things to our summer JOY calendar and the kids are excited to experience the things we did as kids.
Are you feeling spooky?
This past weekend, we went camping and kayaking on the Yellow River near Prairie du Chien, WI.
Aside from the 90-degree temps, it was perfect!
We grilled breakfast over the fire, ate perfectly marshmallow-y sticky smore’s, and the kids rode bikes on the gravel loop in our campground like they owned the place.
My favorite moment though, was our trip to Spook Cave and Campground. I had gone when I was a kid and when my son asked, “Mom, how old were you when you visited the cave? It dawned on me that I was close to 10 years old, meaning it had been close to 27 years ago!”
This morning I dug out a few photos of my trip through the cave, and it made me laugh to see the kids eyes go wide… “Wow mom, you’re old! Why do your photos look like they are old fashioned?!”
I told them that I am not old, just wise.

Cheers to taking a moment down memory lane!
