Told you!!

Yeah, I was totally right when I guessed that I would do this blog for like 4 posts then never do it again. But I've decided to give you a little update. Maybe its just because I haven't been at a computer for more than 15 minutes at a time this whole summer or maybe I'm just lazy, but whatever the reason is aside, it's great to be back and forcing you guys to hear about my life.

So If you missed the memo, I've been in Colorado for the past 2 months. I've been working as a camp counselor at a camp called Sky Ranch Lutheran Camp. For those of you who have been a camp counselor before, you know that its hard to spell couselor correctly all the time. See right there? I just left out an 'n'. I'll leave the mistake for emphasis.

You would also know that you get paid to be a little kid for the summer. How have I spent my summer? I played games, went on hikes, did arts and crafts, sang a lot of songs, and ate camp food. Yeah I know that sounds like a camper's week to me too. But the unfortunate part is that I have to be the "big" little kid of the group. Which means taking them to the bathroom, telling them to shut up when necessary and dealing with homesickness and vomit, not always at different times.... But seriously all jokes aside I love my job. Its a great way to spread to the kids the Word of God, and outdoor ministry is wwwaaaay important in a kid's life. So I'm just happy to be a part of that.

I also noticed that I haven't taken nearly as many pictures as last year. Like last year I had 300, this year i might get 30. I just say that cause I was about to say "I'll post some pictures!!!"... what pictures? Maybe some good pictures from last year...
Me at high ropes

Just a fire. But it looks awesome

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this extra little taste of my life. And don't worry guys, only 2 more weeks till I get back. I'll be seeing you guys soon!!!

Peace.
