June 2012

This post is a little late only because I've been so wonderfully busy and exhausted!  I love camp!  :)

Low:

• I lost my voice playing dodgeball during Senior High week here at camp, but it was sooooo worth it!
• I was taking an online class and it was hard for the first and last week to have stuff due everyday of the week and have spotty internet.  Good thing the end of June brought the end of the class!  I had to do 7 Dippy Dips to celebrate.  :)
• There is only 6 more weeks of camp for me.  

High:

• CAMP.  Seriously, just go back through my blogs for the past few weeks.  There is so much that goes on that I feel I can't list here.  Its just been so wonderful up here!  I get to serve God by way of counseling His children and its just been amazing!
• One of my goals for the summer/forever is to work on Scripture references and fine tuning verse memorization.  It's going alright.  I'm glad I decided to work on it though.
• I've had 2 camp outs and 2 times up to Trail Breakfast.  Stars are a beautiful creation!  
• Weekend outings have been a BLAST even if the ice skating rink was closed last weekend.  Its been so much fun to connect to the staff even more and do uncamp related activities.  I've also frequented The Skinny Dip almost every weekend for chicken strips and cheese balls!

• I found out on the last day of June that I would be spending a week at Lakeside!  I LOVE this cabin! Sure, it's a little hot, but it is so peaceful to be away from the rest of the camp and to pick red raspberries right away in the morning.
• God has just been working here in the Valley and it's amazing to be a part of this ministry here.  There is a lot of unity among the staff and there has been much laughter and encouragement all around.
• I chopped 9 inches of hair off during Senior High week!  It feels wonderful to have short hair again!  The time was right and I don't regret not being able to wait until August to cut it!  :)

I thought I would leave you with some adventurous pictures from the month here at camp!  :)

The wranglers didn't let me ride like this though...

Lu and I really are partners in crime...

I managed to throw my keys on the roof, and then almost hit Alison in the face...

We participated in the first ever VCBC Dance Party!  I had the best dancing shoes...

Its been amazing, June.  July, you've been good so far!  Keep it up!  :)
