week 2

Hey guys! Well week two ended yesturday. We had around 550 kids at camp last week. It went pretty well. I got to take my 25 bible study kids to a place called Midland Park. While we are there we get to teach VBS to about 70 kids ages 4-12. All in all it was an awesome week. I get to go back to this site the last 3 weeks of camp so I'm pretty excited to get to see those kids again. Yesturday we all went out to eat at Chili's because it was one of the girls birthdays, we had a lot of fun. Last night Beth and I went driving around downtown Charleston, it is so gorgeous down there. My favorite thing is that instead of street lights, they have lanterns with actual fire in them. I think that is so cute! Today I slept til about 11:30 (yay for sleeping in!) and then went down to the pool with some friends for almost 4 hours! It was a lot of fun. Some of us just went and got some ice cream, I got Watermelon Italian Ice, it was ahhmazing! And we are about to go play some Apples to Apples! We I'm gonna get going. But Here are some pictures for you guys!

Me and Talia! She is precious!

First week of camp

Hey guys! Well the first week of camp started on Monday. It's one of our smallest weeks with only about 350 youth. I have an awesome bible study group, we have a lot of fun and they are all really hard workers on site. This week we are teaching VBS at a small church about 25 minutes from CSU. Yesturday we had 17 kids and today we had 23, praise God! Last night we had a huge safari with the entire camp, and oh yeah my team won!! Go us!!! We were super excited to win! :)
Well I have to get going, but I just wanted to let all of you know that week one is going awesome so far, and I can't wait to see what the rest of this week, and summer brings.

I have a few pictures for you guys from training week. I will try to post more later. I hope you enjoy! Love you guys!

One week...

Well I've been here a week! We have had a super busy week, full of lots of fun and training. I will try to update this more, but my internet has been hating me lately so I haven't been able to log on much at all. Since I last updated you all, some exciting/crazy things have happened. One morning as I was sitting on my bed, getting my make up on, I looked up and saw a mouse run across my floor. And suprisingly I didn't freak out like I would have imagined myself to do. After a day, we got some traps out, and got it. It was a baby one, and it made me sad a bit, but glad to not be sharing my bed with a mouse. Good times..

Yesturday was our free day. So I got to sleep in until 10:30 ish which was amazing, then me and about 8 other girls headed to the beach. It was so amazingly warm and so was the water. FYI I swam in the ocean yesturday.. not just like put my feet in, but like went in up to my shoulders... for those of you who know my fear of fish, this is a BIG DEAL! YAY! and we had a blast in the water. Then we headed back to campus, got ready and everyone dressed up and went out to eat in downtown Charleston at a Crab House. And then after walked around downtown Charleston for a while, and then went to an ahh-mazing pier.

We only have a few more days of training, and then Monday camp starts! How awesome is that!

Alright guys, I gotta go get my bible study material ready and set up my room some more. I love you and miss you guys! Thanks for the prayers!
