My summer so far....

....has been rather eventful and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way!!!

Once school got out in May, I worked on campus till the end of month. I also began working on packing stuff up at my old place as I was moving at the the end of June, and knew I wouldn't have much time to pack during the month June. Plus some relaxing and hanging out with friends when I could.

The end of May came and so did training for Lighthouse Christian Camp. Three days at the camp with all other staff members were Bro. Michael and returning counselors tried to train us as much as they could to prepare us for the upcoming weeks of camp.

And then the routine for the next month began. Home Friday evening through Sunday afternoon. At camp Sunday evening through Friday afternoon. There is so much that happened during these weeks, that at the current time I am not even going to try to write about it. Other than to tell you it was an amazing thing to see God at work in the lives of the girls I counseled and the young women I worked with.

I am so blessed to have made the friends I did while working there. All the girl counselors and support staff that I came to know and love while working the month of June are all special and awesome people. (As are the boy counselors that I haven't spent time but training with).  I also now have plans to take my first trip to Minnesota to visit Miss. Julie, who was my cabin buddy for all but one week of camp!  And thanks to 7 of these amazing people, I was able to move into my new apartment at the end of the month in less than 2 hours!!!

This month has been busy as well. I cant believe that it is already July 22! I have been very busy this month as well- with traveling to Clarksville and going to Gatlinburg with Mama and Mag. Having Mag over for about a week and the various things to do in between that. Next week, my grandparents are coming back from Africa for a month and then later in the week Tim and I go to Clarksville to celebrate Mr. Carlton's (Tim's grandad) birthday. Then this month will be over!!!

But despite being busy, it has been a wonderful summer so far.
