Heritage Camp

We've been busy this week. Shaelyn is going to Heritage Camp this week. Monday night she stayed over at a friend who we went to China with. She got to go to Bible School with her at night. Tuesday was the start of camp. There are kids from China, Guatemala, Eastern Europe, and Korea. I think there is something like 400 kids attending. She has painted a rock with Chinese words and is learning the lion dance. Camp starts at 9 every day and goes till 2:00. I found a neighbor who also goes so we're doing some car pooling. (It takes about 25 minutes one way)Tomorrow night, she will be staying over at Ellie's again. Friday, there is a special program to go to.
It's been incredibly busy but I thought I'd at least update you on what's going on!

What a great camp----and experience for Shaelyn to bond with others who share the same bond.

The t-ball brought back great memories of me playing when I was her age.

Oh my! I hope you didn't suffer too much damage from the water.

And LOVE the new profile picture a lot!
