When Cam's parents were in school, they never started back prior to Labor Day. It still seems strange for Cameron to be back in session in August. We did manage to squeak in two more fun-filled days of summer break prior to Wednesday.
Ms. Ann arrived on Monday for tutoring with Cam. She also brought him a cool bday present. The birthday t-shirt read "My Ability is Stronger than My Disability" and Cameron really loved it!
Tuesday was the final hot dog stand stint for Cameron this season. Jane brought her son to the Brody Be Cafe location. It was a busy afternoon with a nice, cool breeze.
Cam was in charge of the chips. He provides the choices to customers and assists with the removal of the potato chip bags. Interacting with people is such a positive aspect.
Oma and Auntie Karen arrived in time for lunch. They had not seen Cam in working form before, so they were both excited to be there and to order up their noon meal.
One advantage to working the afternoon timeframe is the ability to choose which eating option may be best. Cam decided on a Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwich and chips. Brody also showed up to say hello and Cam's dad made it over right before the end of his son's shift.
Wednesday was Cam's first day of 11th grade! It's hard to believe he is already halfway through high school. The most exciting news Tuesday evening was that Cameron's bus pick up was changed to 7:05am. Previously it was 6:30am! Our family was all smiles. The morning was cooler, but it warmed up quickly.
We were in for another surprise that afternoon. The bus driver dropped off Cam right at the very top of the driveway. We've only had that happen one other time. 
Thursday evening, Chris and Jane attended their last outdoor summer concert while Ms. Ann hung out with Cam.
Saturday afternoon, we ventured to the cottage. Our cousins from Philadelphia and New Jersey were there so it was an extra fun-filled day. Our friends Molly and Jude also joined our crew with their baby boy.
It was a sunny beach day and the kids all made it fun. We ate dinner on the outdoor deck. Chris had been golfing with all of the guys and they arrived after dessert.
The young cousins all helped to secure Cam in the van after sunset. Cousin Avery told him she would see him the next day. We told her that may not be possible due to other things. She looked at her older cousin and said "Ok, Cameron, I'll see you tomorrow then!"
Camology Quotes:
It's pretty cool to watch Cam hold his own with the jokes these days. During his bedtime routine, Jane was assisting with a task and her son said:
"Mom, you are so kind and sweet."
At that moment, Chris accidentally put a towel on Cam's face, to which he immediately responded:
"But you're a different story, Dad!"
