Friends from Grace
We are so thankful for our church and for the friendships we have through this place and through having a common bond of Christ.

Camp Reveal July 2011
Camp Reveal was an awesome time with 12 youth group students, Joe, myself and Lucy. We felt like the Duggers, we were the mom and dad with our 13 kids in the back! :)
The heat index down in Evansville was 120 degrees, so Lucy and I had to stay inside most of the time, but the kids were outside, drenched in sweat playing games, riding horses, swimming in the lake that was as hot as bath water, etc....
This camp is for kiddos from all different backgrounds and home situations and our youth group kids go there as counselors. It's a really good experience for them, though hard and challenging, they come away having learned and grown a lot.
The trailer pulling our luggage got a flat on the way there and on the way home....so had a crazy time stranded for a few hours and were welcomed into the home of a wonderful family who kept us cool in there home and ordered us pizzas. Amazing! God was good and we arrived safely home around 12:30 a.m.
Here are some photos of our time there:

High School Camp June 2011
Summer camp this year was a "west coast tour" along the coast of Michigan with stops at the beach, stayed at the Chapel in St. Joe (the 3 of us stayed at my parents:)) and at a VanKampen home in Grand Haven. Weather was iffy, but had a great time nonetheless and it was awesome being able to stay in homes! :)
The kids love holding Lucy and taking pics of her, which of course I appreciate! :)
Also Lucy had her first swim in the VanKampen pool house and it was a success, she loves water!

Youth group
Just wanted to share a couple photos from our Youth Group - we are loving it. This has been a great Fall so far!
Here is a fun one from Fall 2009 at the Orchard - can't wait to go back this year!
And a last photo...this was a fun and shocking morning event...never have had a squirrel just hanging out outside of my window before :) He was really cute and he just kept looking at me!!
