Camp

I'm back to blogging... and the crowd rejoiced
... so start rejoicing already.

For my first blog in a while: here's some pictures from Camp YoliJwa. We had tons of fun, my room was great, other counselors were fun, and I must say how I've forgotten how great camp is. Every year it is one of the highlights of my summer. I always grow closer to God, build friendships, spend time with super kids, and just get to be outdoors.

The theme for the week was the amazing race. Lovely door decoration wouldn't you say? My room came in first for this race game we played. I was so proud of them. One of my girls fell down the hill and I was like get up and keep on running. In retrospect maybe that was a little harsh, but hey if you want to win you gotta run the whole thing.

These are my girls. Room 231. Yay. A little boy-crazy, but hey, what 8th grader isn't? I was a team leader this year and for our group splash in the pool we did Noah's Ark so I was writing down the names of campers and then the animal they wanted to be. One kid said he wanted to be a wolf so I wrote that down but then another said he wanted to be a wolf as well so I just added an 'es' on the end. Well I never heard the end of spelling wolfes like that the whole week. Even the campers were making fun of me. What can I say? I have shamed the English major.

Where did that foot come from? Here's some of the other counselors, they were a hoot. We share similiar senses of humor...cruel and nasty... I mean pleasant and delightful heh heh.
