People, Music and Praising God

I know that I didn't post that long ago, but before I get busy again with getting camp ready and the volunteers get here and then the campers get here I thought I would post just a little bit about the past days since my last post. An update to me at the Doctors: I did another test today and we are waiting to get those results back from the doctors, but I have been feeling alright most of the time. Last time I blogged was in my free time the day that camp was starting.

So the second week of His Kids started Wednesday evening. It was so great to see some of the returning campers and to meet the new campers. We had different Bible story that we would go over in Chapel and then have a Bible Study in our color groups within the next couple hours following Chapel. There were also crafts during that time and different activities consisting of: T-ball, Archery, Kickball and outside manipulatives. We also have waterfront time where the campers can choose to swim, boat, play a sport, just sit there or play a board game, card game or color a picture. The first day I canoed with a camper and her buddy and that was pretty tiring, but I enjoyed it. The next day I just hung out under the shelter and played a couple board games with some campers. During free time I played more board games with a few different campers and checkers a couple times with a camper. We had a closing on Saturday and all of the campers left to go home.

I had a great weekend with my family here at camp. I ate at a Mexican restaurant with a few of them and the food was delicious and being with them was really fun. Last night was the best ending to a week that I could ask for. There was 9 of us hanging out at camp and so we went and had a campfire. We had some s'mores and a great time bonding. When it was getting pretty dark we had 5 different instruments out there and we had someone starting a tune and the rest would join in. Every single one sounded amazing. Then we started playing some camp songs and some other songs. Praising God with some awesome music at the campfire with some amazing people was totally a great way to end the weekend.
