Summer Camp: Week Four

Since the beginning of time mothers throughout the world have said:

 "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."

Well folks, camp was rough this week.  

The days were chaotic, the weather was miserable, and the kids really 

wore my patience thin.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Thankfully, my co-workers are the bomb and they make the worst of days 

more than bearable. 

Here are some pictures of this week's shenanigans: 

(P.S. I don't have a cool smart phone to take pictures with, but thankfully most of them do. I snagged these from our YMCA CAMP COUNSELORS RULE! Facebook group. Hooray, technology!)

The campers' interpretation of us in paper doll form.
The longer you look at it, the funnier it gets.

Apparently posting pictures of yourself "planking" on random things is the cool thing to do.

Believe it or not, we actually do watch the children. 

The Prank Wars are in full swing and Cory (male) made the mistake of leaving his sunglasses unattended in the arts and crafts room.



This coming week I will be running the YMCA volleyball camp. By myself.
I'm confident in my ability to teach fundamentals and run drills from 9:30 to 4 everyday, but I can't say that I am particularly looking forward to it.

So, if you are the praying type, I would ask that you pray that God gives me a renewed sense of enthusiasm, patience, and compassion for working with the kids this week.
I really need it.

I am fully enjoying a lazy Sunday afternoon, and I hope you all are too!
