Hello friends.

So many new experiences and trials.. and awesomeness.

This past week I was on Family camp.. I had many duties.

I wont get into them too much but the main one... leading Fireside. wow. I led worship for 150 people... 4 nights in a row... nerve racking... apparently I did a good job.
Our Fireside theme was Lord Of The Rings... soo we all dressed up and themed are skits.. it was intense... I was Legolas... I bought a wicked sweet tunic hahah. It looks kinda homosexual but...what ever. :)

There were another 5 baptisms today of Homewood staff.. Soo exciting!!
A couple of my close friends. What an awesome experience.. watching people commit their lives to God.. wicked awesome!

Today was also mine and Taryn's 6 monthiversary... wow...
Not gonna lie.. it has been almost the best 6 months of my life..
I took her to the Tsa-Kwa-Luten resort for some cheesecake and then we sat and watched the sunset and a few cruise ships go by... quite delightful!!

Sunday.. day off... go to church.. maybe play some ice hockey.. should be a good day.

Monday... 4 camps start again.. oh boy...
I am on Jr.Boys Woodsman camp.. soo you wont be hearing from me for a week.
There is also a Jr.Teens sailing camp, a junior girls ranch camp, and then Taryn is counseling Jr. Girls Harbour. Should be a delightful week.

Anyways...


Need my sleep...

I love you all!

A new week.

Well, single mothers camp was very relaxing and enjoyable. Mainly because i didn't really interact with the mothers at all. I was on work crew. A bunch of the men went out to the future golf course on quadra and gathered a bunch of alder trees that had been felled and loaded them onto a trailer. We pretty much have all of the firewood for the winter done... which is very delightful! I am so tired and sore. wow.

We had a Counselor verses CIT soccer game two days ago. I played terribly. I punished myself by running back from the soccer field..which was atleast 3 kilometers... my legs can't even move.

Family camp starts today. 150 people are coming. It is going to be packed for sure. I am leading fireside... which means skits, funny songs, and worship songs. I still need to think of a theme. oh boy. I am also teaching sports class hahah. Helping with 9-12 year old chapels. leading the bottle rocket making and launching, and serving at the adult dinner. YES! it is going to be busy week, I am excited.

I get next sunday off again. Then I will most likely be going to woodsman for another week. then another day off... and then I am Directing Adventure Sailing camp... which is like 16-20 year olds... oh boy... I am soo excited!!! then only a few weeks left of summer. dang. I will be home for 2 weeks in september. I don't know which ones yet though. Hopefully get to be home for my birthday and for Mike and Katie's wedding.

October is the busiest month at camp.. soo it should be pretty insane cause we will barely have any staff... then I need to come home before November starts because the Haiti trip is early November. I am SOO EXCITED to go back to Haiti... the people there are flippin awesome and I miss them. Not done my fundraising by any means.. but God WILL provide soo it's all good!


Just want to say. I am doing good. You don't need to worry about me. Please pray for me though, it makes me feel good... haha, and the man upstairs will be proud of you.

I love you all.
