The summer sends it's love to you just like every year...

wow that song has been stuck in my head for the past week.

That and "Arctic Edge...where adventure meets courage..."


ha. I felt like I should say something neeeew.

It's pretty warm right now.

um.

CAMP! I should write about camp.

So camp was pretty much amazing. I love saying that about things when I really mean it. ha. It was great. I had a great group of girls in my room, I had a great group of girls on my team, and in general, there was just a great group of people there! It was so much fun being a supervisor too. It's funny how much you can really learn once you start evaluating and helping people learn stuff you already know.
One of the coolest things of that week was hearing the missionaries speak every day. Steve and Kris Groome, every morning, did the devotional and then shared part of their testimony. Every day I was so excited to go to chapel, because I loved hearing these two share their story. Every evening we got to hear specifially about their missions work too. It was just such a joy and encouragement. God really spoke in so many ways to so many people during that time.

Lots of silly little fun things happened the entire week too. Our first day of club (although, this was not very fun), we got lost. ha. Well, they had switched my club the night before and no one had chcked the directions...but that actually isnt'w hy we got lost. It was completely my fault. I wasn't paying close enough attention (I was talking, of course) and I missed our exit, so when I turned around, I figured we had to get off the highway going the opposite direction. Yeah. Makes sense? no. I go around talking about how the directions make no sense, and eventually we find the house. The right address, the right street...but no ones home. And then I find out we were at the SE address. So I finally got in touch with the host (I had been tyring to call the entire time) and we made it there. ha. The directions were perfect...it was just the other way. Buyt we laughed pretty much the entire drive home about how ridiculous it was.

But club got better every day of the week, and the kids were great. There were some challenges with discipline, but we prayed about it every day, and I know a lot of other people were praying for us too, and those problems just disappeared.

The coolest thing about camp this year, was how much time was spent in prayer. It was amazing. At the beginning of camp, the director said, "Let's make this camp a camp of prayer." Wow, did we take him seriously. Yet, I still feel like I could've spent even more time praying. There's always a time for everything though I suppose.

Okay what else...VBS! I just got done with that last night. That was really fun. A little short, but fun. We had 17 kids in our class from the second night on. We had such a great group of kids too! 2nd graders - such a fun age - but they all listened so well and were really excited to be learning about God. And I got the priviledge of leading 6 of them to Christ. It was really a blessing and it was so awesome to see how excited they all are.

Anyway, I'm going to amber's house tonight, woo. I should've come over and swam in your backyard. ha. It'll be fun though. And then tomorrow we're throwing a party, woo. We pretty much decided on that three days ago, so like...I didn't tell that many people. So you can come if you didn't get the invitation. That is, if you're someone who knows me and knows where I live and knows how to get in touch with me. Or knows someone who knows me and where I live, I guess.

and I'm moving on Sunday!

haha, I'm happy it's summer. I put some pictures of camp and stuff up on "my myspace space" if you want to see.
