Well, I must say, I was not the most excited person leaving our home Sunday afternoon. We had just finished packing up and were heading to Jr. High camp about 45 minutes away. We had just got off of a busy week, an all day Saturday -- Upwards Soccer Games/Scott's Birthday/Upwards Finale Program. Let's just say I was tired and so NOT looking forward to spending a week with Jr High kids, get home for a day and a half go off to Michigan for a week at CIY with our High School bunch.Well, its a good thing God knows what we need. So far it has been (surprising to me) very fun. My dorm girls have been so easy...they are great! It's 20 minutes before lights out (even though our lights were off already for Elijah's sake, but they didn't have to be in bed) and they are all in bed, whispering quietly. They get up in the AM great. They all happen to be in Scott's and mine family group as well where the whole group listens and is pretty much attentive.
Anyway, we are having a really fun time. During rec time yesterday, we were swimming at the lake. Elijah went down the "big" waterslide, all by himself, on his TUMMY!!! It was so fun, I have to take my camera today and catch some shots. Anyway, that's it for now.

I'm glad U all R having a good time. I'm actually jealous, I totally love the goofy camp scene. There's a certain liberation to being surrounded by bugs, trees, kids, and God.
C Ya soon
Sounds like fun to me!!
Enjoy!
Oooh, I had a flashback reading your post. Tamila and Austin were both younger than 5 when I was a "Mom" for a condo of Jr. High girls one summer in Palm Springs. It was all good--it was just keeping the boys under control and the girls fully clothed that was the most time/emotion consuming. I'm glad you got to enjoy yourself. Have fun at CIY.
