Happy Camper...

Last week, Andrew attended his very first week long, overnight camp sponsored through our church. He'd been waiting for 2 years to be old enough to go, and from the stories I heard once he came home, it was well worth the wait!

His cabin for the week...
They had a ton of activities for the kids to do, which actually made me a little jealous I couldn't join him! They spent the majority of the days making rounds to each activity. And thankfully someone there snapped some amazing pictures of all the action (which really helped since all I gave Andrew was a disposable camera to capture the good times)!
Gaga pit...
Rock Wall...
Sand tunnels...
Blob...
They also had Sword Drills where they had to look up Bible verses...
Each night, they met in chapel for a church service complete with praise and worship, a message and even a few games. Such an awesome way to tune the kids in with the Lord!

By the time he got home on Saturday, he was exhausted! And not only was he able to make new friends and do activities he could have never imagined, but he also spent the week drawing closer to the Lord. He's already anxious to go next year :)
