Hospice Grief Camp

7/24/15 - 7/25/15  Jacen went to Hospice Grief Camp again this year.  It was at Spirit Ranch this year which is a beautiful location.  I got a few pics of some of the activities they did.
Yoga - They got to take the mat with them at the end.  This can be used as his safe place to think about Nathan, relax, etc.
Writing on a block - They wrote or drew something about their loved ones that would then be thrown into the fire to symbolically get rid of the sadness. 
Eating Smores by the fire.
They next day they did many great activities.  We didn't get too many pics because you drop your kids off on Saturday.
Group Pic of the Littles Group
The littles group under the tree towards the end of the day.  He is sitting in the counselors lap on the left while Tucker his friend from church sat on the right.
A sweet lady from church named Kim was one of the group leaders.
They had a water gun fight!
Jacen chatting with Lalani one of the fabulous Hospice Counselors while they picked out water guns.
Running after someone!
Shooting Kim in the background.
Then at the very end there is a balloon release.
Jacen is in the middle and Tucker is toward the right.
Releasing the balloon.  He didn't want to watch because he said that this part makes him sad because it makes him think of NeNe (Nathan). :(
I couldn't resist some pictures by the water.
