The art of earning a buck or two or five.

 Caden decided he wanted to sell some art...no clue where this idea hatched from but he was determined.

 Here is a random skateboarder stopped to purchase a drawing

And grandma and grandpa made a few purchases too.

In total, Caden made almost $5...crazy!!

A few days at the lake

 We took a trip up to Lake Gregory
 
 Logan did a little yard work at the cabin...

 We ate ice cream on the porch

 Played and relaxed at the lake

 and we fished...doesn't this pic make you want to whistle the Andy Griffith theme

We did have a little issue with the plumbing and the alarm while we were up there...Shawn's cartoon can sum it up...

BizTown

Logan spent a week at Business Camp this summer and LOVED it...you read that right, Business Camp. I was skeptical but after seeing what they did all week,  it really was right up Logan's ally. At the start of the week, they invented a product, made a business plan and had to market it to a team of investors ala Shark Tank. During the second half of the week, they applied for a job in their "town" which involved completing a job application and going on an interview.Here is the team...buddies from school

Hard at work in the design process

Logan was in charge of marketing their invention, the EZ potato chip bag opener. Here is his infomercial

On their final day, they get to run BizTown. Logan was a reporter for the San Diego Union Tribune.

Parents are invited to check out the town in a open house on Friday afternoon. Logan gave us a tour and we checked out all their inventions.

Here's the reporter in his newsroom...

He had a great week at business camp :)
