Success

Eager Beavers is done and I am not gonna lie, I am a great director. :D
I am also a lot more humble in person. Eager Beavers lasted 4 days and 3 nights... and over the years there have been any bed wetters, tears, fist fights, and even poops on a couch. Well... this year we had one bed wetter (7 less than last year), one pee-er on the field(one less than last year) and no poopers. There were many fist fights but for good reason and none that weren't resolved by myself. I didn't realize how tiring sixty three, 6-8 year olds can be until now.

I was the chapel speaker aswell. I stressed about this lots before hand. When the time came I upped my game and got the main points across. The kids were aways restless but I kept the chapels short and sweet. Talked about creation the first day... sin, mistakes, and why we do the things we do, on the second day. Third chapel was about Jesus' life, death, why he came, and how he can be our best friend if we only ask him. Now, to 6-8 year olds these are the most confusing topics in the world... soo we illustrated them with awesome skits and songs. :D
On the last day we asked the kids if they wanted bibles and we ended up giving out over 50... soo exciting.

I wish I couldn't properly explain the amount of growth I've gone through in the past couple months. Holy.
I am looking forward to the next couple years of my life. heck... the rest of my life!

... one step at a time Josh... jeez... :D

I am directing day camps aswell!

A week of 9-4 day camps, soo evenings off... delightful! this time it's 60, six to twelve year olds. a little bigger spread. Should be a good week.


I am a pro skateboarder btw... haha. yes.. I bought a skateboard and hit up the Quadra skatepark every other day... I like to think of myself as an old school skateboarder... I enjoy tricks where I stay on my board hahaa. You may see some sick facebook photos soon.
I have had more injuries in the past 2 weeks at the skatepark than I have had in the past 2 years I think. :D hahah oh boy.

My tan is...un-......real....

I bought a watch. weird. mainly because my phone is broken, which I reduced the plan on btw... soo don't text me because well... I wont be able to read it.


Tim, Cade, Matt, and Mark Wobma came to camp on Quadra this weekend... which was delightful... got to visit them for a bit. went to the sand cliffs and hucked some flips. Delightful.
Love them. To bad they aren't here forever.


Soo Taryn is officially here for the rest of the summer..... :D
I went to her grad commencements ceremony the other day.. which was... soo boring haha 3 and a half hours... but you know what.... I can handle it... gotta put up with these things if I want to be a good boyfriend. hahah.
Got to meet all of her living grandparents, some aunts and uncles, and some family friends. It was... a bit much... haha. They are a bunch of wine-o's :D hahaha... which I can handle. what I can't handle is talking politics with a bunch of half sober 60-80 year olds. :D Soo I pretty much just acted like I knew what i was talking about and went with it. ahah soo enjoyable.


. Anyways. i need to go shmooze with directors and staff. Lunch. mmm.

Love you all!
