AUGUST 8

Last day of day camps for the summer :(

Jen and Katie did a skit. Jen was Katie's arms, and Katie ended up with ice cream all over her.

AUGUST 7

Some of my campers and our two volunteers (counselors in training) for the week.

AUGUST 6

TEAM OZ

before...

SKITTLE SKATTLE BATTLE

AUGUST 5

Some of the day camp girls went to the Yum Yum Tree in downtown Brighton. I had a blondie with java chip ice cream, and it was the best dessert I've ever had.

After ice cream, we walked around and explored downtown Brighton for a little while.

AUGUST 4

WEEK 8 (the final week of camp)

Here are some of my campers with tie-dye on their hands!

AUGUST 3

I walked into my room today, and after being in there for a couple of minutes, I noticed that my cat was in my bed. She had buried herself in my comforter. It was so cute!

AUGUST 2

I went shopping with my mom today.

There is this sculpture outside of Michael's, and I've always wanted to take a picture of someone standing behind it, so I finally did.

AUGUST 1

I went to the StoBro / CoCo closing day, and then I drove home from camp.

JULY 31

I had Junior Explorers this week (which means campers who want the overnight experience, but aren't ready to stay for an entire week yet), so they left on Wednesday, and I stayed to hang out around camp for the rest of the week.

On Thursday, my friend Dave who works High Adventure took Ashley, Patti, and me on the Copper Country zip line. It was so much fun! (Thanks again, Dave!)

JULY 30

RAFIKI! (our cabin name)

Group picture on the last day of camp :(

JULY 29

WILD AND WACKY DAY!

This was on our way to play Infiltration!

JULY 28

Two of Chelsey and Ashley's campers.

I think this picture looks like it could be in a SpringHill brochure, but to be honest, I didn't even take it. Jessica, a 9-year-old camper, took it. She spent a lot of time getting in the right position and trying to get the lighting just right. She has a lot of talent!

JULY 27

TWO OF MY CAMPERS! :)

(Julia and Jessica)

JULY 26

Chelsey and I went up to the overnight camp to work for the week! There was NO ONE there when we arrived, so we had no idea what to do. We finally found some people in the StoBro staff lounge. That was an interesting experience haha We went to Subway for dinner, and then we went to the dollar store. After that, we walked around a little bit and then hung out in the treehouses (our cabin).

JULY 25

Jamie's surprise going away party!

It was so fun to get dressed up and hang out at the beach in Monroe. Also, my guy friends are so much fun.

JULY 24

TEAM (I don't remember)!!!

We are ready for the skittle skattle battle.

I also have a sweet picture of Rachel and Me with sweet face paint, but I thought our team picture was a little bit better choice.

JULY 23

I watched TV with my mom, and Clare (my cat) hung out with us, too.

JULY 22

My small group for the week!

I know I say this a lot, but these kids really were a lot of fun. All of these kids were SO mature, too! (They were my oldest campers all summer). They asked so many deep questions, and we had a lot of awesome discussions during RAP.

JULY 21

I made my cat a new catnip pillow. She LOVED it. She tends to choose that catnip pillow over the store-bought ones, too. That makes me happy.
