If you read my husband’s blog, you know we recently had our church’s annual Family Camp. We love Family Camp. Nay, we are completely ENAMORED with Family Camp! Gene had the good fortune of going when he was just a tiny guy, but after a number of years it got too costly and the church stopped going. It resumed again last year and now we just can’t get enough of it! Lots of good, wholesome, campy, hikey, cabin-ey, family fun. Here are some highlights:
My niece and another sweet one from our church…how would you know which way was the correct way to play on a ping-pong table if you’d never played before? you wouldn’t.
The s’mores line. Nobody got burned, either!
I’m sorry to report that there was one team in the canoe race that really brought disgrace upon the entire canoe racing community with their lack of skill special talents. Either that, or they just need to start putting in 4 hours a week NOW for next August’s race. Yes, I said 4 hours per week. No, it was not an overstatement. (This ended up being perhaps the most entertaining part of the whole weekend! Thanks, team!)
The mayhem and delirium of the Horseshoe Tournament.
Here’s Gene and I, practicing good parenting by encouraging a younger member of our t-shirt relay team. I think we got it.
Here’s Gene, meticulously judging the fireworthiness of the matches during the Match Relay.
Here we are, tearing it up in second place for the Ping-Pong Blow at the Award Campfire. (Don’t mind my sister-in-law and brother-in-law…technically they got first place, but I think there’s reasonable doubt.)
Handsome alert!
We love you, Family Camp! See you next year.
It‘s quiet in here! Why not leave a response?
