What I do All Day!

Before I tell you what exactly it is I do all day I thought that I would give a quick update on Kamp. Kamp is going well. It is hard to believe that we are in the middle of 10th term (out of 12). There are only 14 days and 800 more kampers left for the summer. My how time flies. The counselors seem to be doing well. Everyone is getting a bit tiered and having to rely on God more and more each day for there energy, but that is normal and to be expected. It seems that it is always in the these last few weeks of summer when everyone is worn out and feels that they can go on no more that the Lord moves in the biggest ways and does the most amazing things.

Last week was a fun week. I finished my boater safety course and got my Missouri Boaters Licences. I am now a boat drive at kamp. It is a blast. Sorry I didn't post last week, time got away from me on my 2-4.

Now for what I do all day. This is my basic schedule each day. It looks a little different on Change Over Days (the day old kids leave and new ones arrive) and on Day 4 or Church Day/ Man and Girl Day as we like to call it.

In other news: I love getting your mail. Please keep it coming, I am trying really hard to write you back as soon as I get it. While I love kamp I really miss my friends and Fayetteville, but we all have to grow up sometime and move on the the next phase in life and I am ready for the challenge. My friends Vicky and Kevin are moving to Minnisotta on Thursday so it was really great to see them one last time before they move. I can't wait to visit them in the spring. I am excited that Tammy is coming Branson next week to see me and go shopping we have so much to catch up on and it should be a fun girls weekend.
