kids camp!!

Kids camp was AWESOME!! we loved it... every second!!! We left on Friday afternoon on a bus full of kiddies! i swear 10 minutes after we arrived the kids found the pool and just jumped in!! and it was cold!
I will note only a few highlights of the weekend cause it was jammed packed and totally awesome!! Some highlights to name a few...
Hot chocolate after dinner...
and then some roasting marshmallows!
The fire was HOT so Jarryd made a contraption to roast his marshmallow :) Cleaver boy!!

On Saturday we had planned ALL these activities for the kids - an obstacle course of sorts with points and clues etc etc. We had our groups of kiddies for the whole weekend - for our small groups etc and this was my group! They were awesome!! I had two naughty little boys in my group (the two kneeling) and i absolutely LOVED them!!
This was the obstacle i manned - gutterball - they had to make it about 40 meters with the ball not touching the group!
I must say our group came stone last over the whole weekend... but at least they had fun!!
For lunch on Saturday we and a burger and chips and the chips were SO delicious!! Best i have tasted in sooo long! Suppose the weather being cold helped!
After lunch the kids hit the pool again!
me and my gorgeous team chilling in the hall enjoying some "minute to win it" fun...

On Saturday night the kids were literally bouncing off the walls - we were sure they would be tired after the days activities but they weren't! after our session of memory verse, worship and our talk we eventually put on a DVD for them to settle them. we watched "night at the museum 2" and that seems to put them all to sleep! after the movie had finished (and i also woke up from being snuggled on mikes chest - sigh) we took all the girls to their dorms and let the boys crash in the hall until they woke up and eventually stumbled to their rooms!!

This was our room...
hee hee, on Sunday morning i came back from my shower and mike was still snuggled in his bed - lucky boy!!

Mike and i infront of our CSI board! The theme for the weekend was "who do you say I am" so we like a CSI vibe to "investigate" the death and resurrection of Jesus and from there who the kids say Jesus is... Mike and i were involved in this play - he was the tech geek and i was a detective. it went down really well!!

What an amazing weekend!!! Mike said on Sunday evening that he was bummed camp was over and that basically sums up how much we loved it!!
