Another Lunch Prep

Having a wonderful morning! :D

Update :)

Hello again!! :)

I just wanted to update and tell a bit about my weekend. Busy but extremely fun, as usual. Tuesday, Kortney R. (I'm not sure what her last name is exactly) came out to Camp and I must say she's a blast to be with. Fun, sweet, and talented. Let me tell ya, that girl can draw like nobodies business! I'll admit, I'm a tad bit jealous. ;) She's beautiful and has a huge vocabulary. I learned a The Technical Word for salt. We were eating dinner one night and sh says to me, "Would you please pass the sodium cloride?" (See? I dont even know how to SPELL that!! :O) Anywho, she was alot of fun to hang out with. I hope she comes back soon!!! :D

Tuesday evening after dinner, The Caldwell Girls kidnapped me. Hahaha, well, not really. The evening was a blast. They took me to their house and showed me around. We picked rasberries from their garden and ate mint leaves. Charity pulled up a baby carrot that I ate without washing. I felt like...I'd just done something...amazing? No, but it was cool. :p AND yummy!! :) They showed me their brother's guitar and oh my WORD! It was amazing. I played guitar and Jessica played the piano and we all three sang songs for like an hour. Three part harmony. It was AHHHMAZING!! <3

So, Jessica stayed behind an Charity and I came back to the camp. As we were pulling out of the driveway, her dad ran out with two tiny icecreams. Ya know? The kind that are like adorable personal treats? :) Yes, it was so cute. I always forget Bro. Caldwell's name but I must say he and Sis. Starr are so sweet. The Caldwells are a great family.

The way home from Everson to Camp is all through the mountains and there's like no one out at nine at night, so we had the windows down and Irish music turned up loud. It was SO much fun. We waved at a train conductor and at a few other people we saw. Hahaha. Charity is SO MUCH FUN!! I can totally relax around her and I know she won't think I'm weird. :p Well, she prolly DOES think I'm weird but she's not scared of me. ;)

Back to the weekend. The Hoffman's were up here. Bro. Darren, Sis. Roxanne, Ben, Renisha, and Anthony. I met Bro. Darren my first day here at camp. I thought he was great cause he let us all steal something from out of the Snack Shack. :D Hehehe. Sis. Roxanne is great fun in the kitchen. She's a "Newfie" but sounds like a Southerner. Haha, she's adorable. Ben is very knowledgable and play the piano amazingly. Renisha. She's wonderful. She sings with me and Becca when we do dishes and its alot of fun. She's in love with candy and tends to fall backwards in chairs. ;) I was bummed she only stayed one night but she had to help with Ben and Brianna's wedding. Anthony...he's a HOOT! My goodness. The normal (or should I say abnormal :p) 15 year old. Silly, and always having something funny to say. He keeps us all laughing.

So, we had a big goupd this weekend and stayed busy. But we did have time to play around on Saturday. Ben played the piano and us girls sang. Becca and I play this jolly duet and so we played that a couple of times through until we were going so fast we couldn't stay in rythem together. Dutch Blizt. Kortney is the Champ. She's fast and smart. I get so flustered I can't keep up. :p We got tired of being in the dining hall so we got a football and Becca and I threw with Ben and Anthony. It was fun. :) We noticed a mama swallow teaching two of her babies how to fly. THE CUTEST THING EVER!! I was IN LOVE and named one "Snoogle Bear". I talked to him and I'm sure everyone thought I was socially unacceptably awkward with mental issue. :p Hehehe. He liked me though. Cause he was shaking with excitment...? Ok, so he was more likely just scared to death of the giant who was too close for comfort and talking in an unknown language about Snoogle Bears and Beebees in a very high and annoying pitch. Poor thing. Anywho. He was cute and I wanted him to know. :p

So, yeah. It's been another good week. :) Bibleway Camp is coming up so soon. I can't believe it. It's kind of fun knowing a few little secrets about it. ;) Hehehe. My lips are sealed.

My cabin has been transformed and I love it. Right now it's raining outside and I have instrumental music playing, candles lit and the front door open. Trapper is sitting beside me on the couch and I'm about to head down the hill to send out some snail mail, e-mail, and post this blog post. So, take care everyone. I'll post again when I can. And pictures will come soon. :D

The Epic Sunday Adventure

Yesterday I swam in melted snow. Ok, so maybe it wasn't quite deep enough to actually SWIM in...but at several times I was fully emerged from neck to toe. Rebekah Peris and Charity Caldwell were with me and apparently our shrieks were heard clear down at  the Annex. 

After church, we decided to brave the icy water. There's a swimming hole that we braved first. All three of us holding hands in case one got swept down the river. The current in some places is super strong and to be honest. The idea of being swept down the creek really scares me. The hidden rocks and sharp sticks. OWCH!! Hehehe! :)

Anyways. After we got used to the icy water we climbed/waded up stream in search of another swimming hole. We found one place that was like a jacuzzi. The current is not quite as strong and the way the water falls makes thousands of bubbles. So it's like waist deep (on me) and full of bubbles. Pretty cool. :D

Anyways. After we finished at the creek Charity had to go home. :( I was very sad cause over this weekend past, I got to know her alot more and let me tell ya...She's AHHHHMAZING! Seriously. Fun, prankster, sweet. Yeah. She's pulled several pranks on me. From putting "snow" from the freezer down my back, to asking me if the caramel smelled weird on the spactula. When I went to smell it she pushed it up into my face and yeah. I'm thinking of revenge stratigies. ;)

So, after Charity left. Rebekah and I got changed then went to lay out on the big hill behind the Chapel. I fell asleep. It was so niiiiice! There's a tiny creek that runs behind it and I could hear it as I drifted off. A woodpecker was off to my right and a bee was buzzing around me. Prolly in search of the clover that grow there. Anyways. After my quick nap. Rebekah and I picked some wild cherries and then went in search of some Salmon Berries. They were both SO yummy. :)

Anyways, yesterday was relaxing. After a busy weekend is was nice to just rest and hang out. :)
