Cat-egories

So, it’s been a super long time since I have even thought about writing on this thing. Mostly because I have been crazy busy, but also because even though I am busy, my life isn’t just that interesting. But for those who want to know I will break down what has been going on.

Summer

- Sr. High Mission Camp

Highlights- the group we brought was great, we did a lot of good things, and I got to show off my square dancing ability

Lowlight- the group I was in charge of there were mostly good kids, but a little lazy with one troublemaker, I had a lapse of judgment and let that group cut my hair with pruning shears.

Sr. High Church Camp

Highlights-its was fun hanging out with some of the kids, I got to hang out with another great youth director, and I got a glow stick one night

Lowlights-Camp food, for some reason clothing seems to almost be optional for campers, and I fell while I was dancing and twirling my glow stick.

 Jr. High Mission Camp Highlights-Work was great, youth were great, we got to float a river and got to a huge water park, food was great, nighttime worship was awesome

Lowlights-old dorm beds and really low shower stalls

Now School has started, and we had our back to school rally. It was really good, we had a great crowd and a good speaker. There were some fun games, and I have to say my youth totally kicked butt on the games. Not sure why I am proud my youth can eat cow tongue and potted meat the fastest but there you go.

 On the home and family front, it has been wild as well. Westers has turned into a demon at daycare. He will not sit still and has been spitting and talking back. It seems to be getting a little better, and he is spending next week with his Nana so we hope a break and some extra attention helps.

Our landlord called last week and told us he needed his house back due to some financial trouble he was having. We had to find a house to rent pretty quick. I wanted to stay in town, but there was nothing. We found a cute house on a lake about 8 minutes from here and still in the same school district so we took it. It is being cleaned and fixed up a little, and we are moving in as soon as we can.

 MG is happy in 4th grade and his first midterm report was very good. He now has to tuck his shirts in to go to school including t-shirts and he is not very excited about this. Other than that, he is great.

 Now you can see why I haven’t updated. I have no brain left to be clever and funny after my work and family, and besides I am generally a lazy person, so my posts turn out to be a boring and short play by play of my life.
