Camp Sweet Camp....

So, there's this place.... Huron Forest Camp CedarRidge.
I have been spending at least a week in the Huron forest since I was 6. This summer, I spent almost two months there. A good portion of my life revolves around camp, and camp friends....
There are so many great things about camp, I hope to touch on just a few.

~God...
God is at the center of everything at camp, whether learning how to shoot Archery, or doing drama class, Christ is the center. I never feel as close to God as I do at camp.
~Friends...
I can't even imagine my life without my camp friends. Friendships made there are long lasting, no matter who you are, what kind of things you like to do, you will find forever friends at camp.
~Beauty....
Being in the heart of the Huron National forest, Gods creation is shown everywhere. There is just something about being surrounded by Gods beauty that does something great for the soul.
~Staff..
Guys, seriously. The staff are basically the best. I think I can safely say after spending so much time with them this summer, I know most of them pretty well, and I can think of few greater people. They strive to serve God, and to help campers do just that same thing.
~Team Elijah...
Team Elijah is a high school work crew, something I spent 5 weeks doing this year. Its volunteer, we do everything from washing dishes to mucking horse stalls to building benches. It teaches you how to have a servants heart. I love TE (team elijah) You grow so close you your other team members, and learn so much about our awesome creator

If your interested in signing up for a week of camp, look into staffing, or volunteering a week on TE. (which will be the best week of your life) here's the camp website link!

My Dearest little sister.....

My little sister, Chloe, is turning 10 in about a week.
This little girl makes my life ten times better, I can't even put into words how much I love her.
I keep having theses "big sister moments" (She is my only little sister, so I have never experienced such moments until now.) moments, when I look at her and no longer see my "little" sister, but rather a growing young woman. Talk about scary. Small things, like seeing her for the first time with a french braid, or with pierced ears, make me realize how fast my baby sister is growing. 
Some may find little siblings just plan anoying, I used to feel the same way, still do sometimes, but somwhere along the way I realized how much I really do enjoy "playing" with her, whether it be her just sitting on my lap and tickling each other, playing checkers, having late night talks with her (we share a room.) seriously guys, she is the best.

Happy Birthday, little sister.
