Happy Friday! It seems as if this month has flown by. Coding camp for Michael and a family visit to Virginia were two of the highlights. That is why they are my \u201cFriday Favorites\u201d this week.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

1. Computer Science Camps for Kids:<\/strong> Michael won a lottery and attended a Google CS First camp this month. He had a great time and learned a lot. By the end of the course, the teacher was having him help the other kids. He may very well be a computer programmer \u2013 like his father\u2019s first career.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
One of the things that Michael noted was that the course could have been done from home instead of at the training site.\u00a0Connected Camps<\/a>, which is offering a \u201cSummer of Minecraft Camps\u201d for kids that I have read great things about, is an online course moderated by counselors via servers. \u00a0(They have summer camps still available through the end of August if you\u2019re interested.)

2. My family:<\/strong> After God, my family is the most important thing to me. Spending time with my immediate family (on a road trip to VA and back) reminded me of how lucky we are to both like and<\/strong><\/span> love each other. Spending time with my dad, mom and siblings (especially celebrating my oldest brother\u2019s birthday) were also very special.<\/div>\n

3. Crabs:<\/strong> There is a crab factory in Newport News, Virginia where I grew up. I try to have them when I go home to visit. I\u2019ll admit that I overdid it this time. (My dad had bought crabs for me, my niece had crabs for me and<\/strong><\/span> I had crabs at Captain George\u2019s buffet for my brother\u2019s birthday outing.) I\u2019ll pace myself the next visit!<\/div>\n

\u00a0I hope that your summer is being filled with your favorite things (and people) too!<\/div>\n
