A couple days ago we had our Donut breakfast for our 13 day kiddos that have come for 4 years or more. Click here to see the one we did for our 25 dayers earlier this term. It was a fun morning and I wanted you to see the pictures.
Today is Stunt day and our kiddos have been preparing for the play that they will put on with their tribe. There is lots of paint cans, glitter, pipe cleaners, card board boxes, and smiles today. They have been making their own costumes, learning their dances, and practicing their lines. It will be a late night tonight so I hope to post the footage of Stunt tomorrow.
The Kickapoos Present: Toy Story (their version of it that is...)
The Kiowas Present: Kung Fu Panda (their version of it that is....)
Every day I want to end at least one of my posts about what I love about kamp. Today I stopped and watched a kid walking on a sea of peat gravel stop and pick up a friendship rock. (A friendship rock is a rock that naturally has a hole in the rock. The kids love finding them) I am always amazed. That rock was sitting among thousands of other rocks and she picked up that rock with such confidence it was like she saw it from yards away. I can search for hours for one and never find them but the kids always seem to know where they are. Anyway, I love the simple nature of kamp. Life is simple here and you get excited about such little things. I am sure the moment the kamper picked up that special rock she knew exactly what friend she was going to rush back to her cabin and make a necklace for. I love that at kamp you are always thinking about your friends here. We make friends here, we love our friends here, and it amazes me how strong the bond is even though your time together is short.....I think God places those friendship rocks here to remind me of this fact.
