CAMP!

As soon as I graduated, I hopped in the car and drove to NC to be a CAMP COUNSELOR at my beloved Camp Greystone!! It really was a dream come true! :)

I was so thankful - I had an amazing co counselor, Emily! I am so thankful that the Lord put us together. She is wonderful! It was so refreshing to be with her that week. She loves the Lord and it really shows in her daily life and conversations! Throughout the week we realized we love lots of the same things! So fun! It was also a blessing - both of us are used to being able to process and debrief with our moms. It was so nice to have each other! We had 10 super cute and adorable little girls who just finished first grade. We had several trips to the Health Hut for various reasons and it really was a huge blessing that there were two of us! I miss getting to chat with Emily after the girls went to bed and we were filling out our daily reports. She is a gem and I am so glad I met her! It was definitely a bummer being late to orientation (graduation... kind of had to do that ;) but I got to know some really great gals that we stuck with the rest of the week. There was even another Belmont gal - how cool is that?! We had a really fab group leader - she helped us so much and was very supportive! It was a really great week and I am so thankful I got to be a counselor! We also had a very sweet Nurturer - she came to pick up our reports and bring us treats each night after Taps!

So fun - I taught the Interlude dance to a group of the counselors and we did it in the Counselor Talent Show!! :)

Kodak Moment:: Day Eight

Day 08 - A picture that makes you laugh every time you look at it.

There are sooo many pictures that make me laugh... but here are a few :o)

The time we thought it would be funny to greet the pizza guy... and it was teenage guy who I think thought we had lost our marbles... and we accidentally closed the door in his face... hahaha

ummm... yeah...
Sometimes we are a little crazy. Just sometimes though.

Don't you put a seatbelt on your pumpkin?? ...no?
This makes me laugh. I am the only one smiling... Good times with kitchen staff at the mall... like the storm/wind simulator, Troy running through the Jessica Simpson jean display, photo booths...

The time I copied this panda picture for a project :)

Dinner at Cinderella's castle- haha I love Mom's face :)

8th grade spanish 3- Vladimir!!
haha
There are more crazy pictures I may have to post sometime :)

Joke Time!

Ahh, nothin' like reminiscing good ole Greystone jokes!

Ike, Pike, and Mustard
The Quasimodo joke
the terribly gruesome Patty story
... and more...


And another one (don't think it's a Greystone joke)

Two blondes were looking at the moon in the night sky. One said, "Which do you think is closer, the moon or Florida?" And the other one said, "Duh! Can you see Florida?!" hahahaha

Do you have any good jokes? Comment on this post!
