Church Camp - Take 1

We got back yesterday from a great week at church camp! Daniel spoke at the Kiamichi Association District Camp. Another brag on Daniel moment - He did a really great job. A lot of students this week made decisions for the Lord! Praise God! Two of our boys went with us. Here is Luke, Josh and Elmo on the way to Wilburton. The camp was at Robbers Cave State Park - which is a LONG way from where we live. It took us 6 hours to get there.Luke was so excited when we got there and got our beds made. He thought it was pretty cool to be sleeping at church camp. I told him that was a good thing because we have 3 more weeks of camp! (Only 2 though to sleep at camp)On Wednesday during a break we took the boys to Robbers Cave. I don't know what I was expecting, but rock climbing was not it. Me in my nike flip flops and the rocks really didn't get along. The boys had a blast though. They were pretending to be cave trolls. It was pretty funny. They went rock climbing and we stuck to the trail (which still entailed climbing a lot of rocks). We could hear them making their "troll" sounds. It was hilarious.Here is a pic of Josh and Steven being "trolls".That afternoon they had water inflatables at camp. It was SO cold, but Luke took a couple trips down the slide before nap time.Here is a picture of Luke and his "girlfriend" Courtney. Luke loved Courtney. Anytime we were out and about he wanted to know where his girlfriend was. She was a really good sport about it too! Funny story - I was trying to get Luke to bed one night and we were laying there. He says "Mom, I really like my girlfriend". I said, "You do". He goes, "What's her name again" It was pretty cute.On Thursday we went for a paddle boat ride and then we played putt putt golf. It was Luke's first experience at both. It was a fun afternoon!
Luke has been learning a lot of worship songs. On Thursday night during the invitation time I couldn't help but cry listening to my baby sing "How Great Is Our God".
We got home yesterday evening after a very long car ride. It was a great week! Stay tuned for more church camp adventures!!!
