This weekend were able to take atvantage of the opportunity to go to Camp Taylor, the camp for kids with heart disease. We had a blast! This camp is so amazing! It was so much fun for the entire family!
The first night there they had a sock hop (dance) which is right up Aiden's alley since he loves to dance. He really took to one of the volunteers there named Jocelyn. She was also a volunteer at the SIBS Snow Camp when Darrion went this past December.

Towards the end of the night, Aiden was on the dance floor dancing his little butt off. He was really getting into it and loving all of the attention he was getting. He was so funny!
Aiden had so much fun! It was so cute he stayed pretty quiet the whole weekend. Quiet meaning, he didn't really cry at all. He definately did a lot of pointing, running & yelling things out when he saw things he likes.
Aiden was trying to play swords, another words "hitting sticks" at the bubble pools. This boy didn't seem too happy when their bubble sticks got stuck together.

and finally some real bubbles!
When Gary & Darrion went kayaking, they pulled up to where Aiden & I were watchng. Aiden tried so hard to figure out a way to get to his dad, he was running side to side back and forth trying to find an opening to get to him.
It was a wonderful experience to be able to see & meet other kids with CHD's, kids that have had the same surgeries that Aiden has had, and to meet & connect with other families with similar experiences.
thank you camp taylor for such an amazing opportunity!

I am so bummed that we were not able to go, and meet your family. Bummer! Hopefully we can connect soon!
Camp Taylor is awesome! We had so much fun last year, I really wish we could have gone this year. I'm so glad to see you guys went & had as much fun as we did!
Awesome! We signed up for the Santa Cruz area Camp Taylor, but due to some mix up, were assigned the Fresno area camp. Then couldn't go to that one either because of the Cath. :( But I had a few heart friends who attended both camps and it sounds and looks like a good time was had by all! Can't wait to go next year! :) Great pictures, Mr. Aiden is suuuuuch a cutie! :)
Always in our thoughts and prayers,
Jen and Ava :)
