So, here's some pics that I took this morning before Kids Camp! Moriah took her friend Acacia with her. I hope they have a blast. They were already enjoying themselves on the bus. I stayed to watch it go off, and was amazed at all the staff who lovingly take care of 90+ kids. What treasures they have stored up in heaven! I'll share some of the kid's eye pics when and if I get my camera back from camp. ;)
So, here's some pics of the first camping trip of the season. You know, you gotta work all the bugs out, get the children used to it....break 'em in. Let's start with the first 100 degree weekend of the year, and top that off with an outrageous thunderstorm with real lightning folks!
Ok, so it really wasn't THAT bad. But, it was pretty scary. There were some trees that were knocked over, and LOTS of wind and lightning. Luckily, most of the kids slept right through it, while all the grown ups were contemplating moving the tents to the middle of the field to get out from under the trees. Most of the guys were like, "Were gonna be fine!" I was pretty much the only girl up. I think the rest of them trusted their men-folk. What does that say about me? Well, I trust my man...but were usually better as a team. ;)
So, needless to say we were fine. Although it bent my brand new Quikshade. But, my stuff always breaks...it's not a surprise. It was hotter than blazes though, so that made it a little hard to have a ton of fun. Everything was work. Now, if I only had a boat...then my life would be complete, right? ;)
The kids had fun, and I absolutely loved the worship night amongst the warm wind and thunderous lightning. It was indeed powerful. Next trip is rafting. Sure to be a little cooler, and a lot of fun. Thanks to all the families that braved the heat...some of you who came for the first time camping ever! We'll keep the tradition alive for sure. Now, if one of you could just buy that boat...it'd be great. ;)
