Week one: beaning and screaming
What is "beaning a ball"? We'll get to that later...
Despite the rain scares the first couple days, camp ran incredibly smooth. The Lord faithfully held the rain away during camp hours. The wet ground made for some fun puddle jumping for football and soccer so franky and Luke had some smelly shoes. We were greeted with 135 smiling and energetic faces each morning, and saw twenty two kids come to know Jesus. Luke claims to have had the greatest campers of all time, and won't stop bragging. Emilys cheer girls executed to almost "perfection". Franky, "coach sparky", was beloved by all. Laura got her 4&5 year olds to participate in the greatest event of all time: bean the ball, complete with chants and everything. Check out video on Facebook, it's quality. Caitlin had fun despite a couple fist fights. She also made a bet with the campers and had to do fifty jumping jacks. All in all, we had a solid week in Forest Lake, Minnesota complete with the greatest host family of ALL time.
Now for the fun stories...
Caitlin tried cross fit for the first time. She lasted a whole 120 seconds. Which according to Franky, wasn't up to par. She also tried out volleyball at the lake and found out she wasn't as qualified as she thought she was.
Emily looks like she has chicken poxs. Don't freak out, it's just mosquito bites.
Seriously, check out coach Laura's video on Facebook. Laura's appetite for shoes was bigger than her wallet at the Nike Outlet. She also can't pack her bag to save her life.
Luke got a nasty pie in the face, and can take a quality solo picture in the middle of the Mall of America.
Franky successfully made fun of everyone all week. He also is a good van driver on drugs. Don't worry, they are prescription.

Good update, thanks for sharing. Sending prayers from Texas (including a few that you don't take my wife to any more shoe stores. Keep up the good work, and by all possible means...reach 'em.
