Look at Kamp in the Snow

We got 8 inches of snow and I was trapped at my home.  Here is a picture of kamp in the snow
This is from Kay Holliday's House in Kamp.  You can see the rec dec. 
Here what it looks like at my office. (These are the buildings you see when you get off the bus the first day of kamp)


Its a winter wonderland at Kanakuk!

K-2 Skit from a few summers ago.

I am so sorry that I have been so inconsistent. I have been traveling the last two weeks. Last week I did not have a computer because my work laptop crashed. So, i went out on the road with the iPad. I love my iPad but its hard to blog with an iPad because most hotels we stayed at did not have WI FI. An iPad doesn’t have a usb cord and that is how you connect to the internet in most 3 star hotels All that being said.. I AM BACK! I don’t travel anymore at all! Therefore I am 100% committed to cranking out a blog every day

Its going to be a snowy day tomorrow (6-18 inches at kamp!)  I don't know about you but I love snow but sometimes it makes me long for summer.  So, I thought I would post a funny skit from the summer.  This isn't K-1 but instead this is a skit from K-2.  They did a "mock" Highschool Musical.  Here is episode 1.  If you are going to K-1 this is something to look forward to.

The Sites in Tulsa

Sorry It's been a couple days since I have blogged. Getting home from Columbia Mo with all that snow took awhile. Then I got home and my laptop crashed!!!! Yep, I don't have a computer this week while I am traveling and my iPad is standing in fo my laptop. It works well but it takes a little time to type. So I am in Tulsa and I am staying at a hotel right across the street from Oral Roberts University. I might interview your counselor there. If you had Gabby and Tricia last summer as your counselors you will be happy to know that I will see Gabby tonight. She goes to ORU. Anyway, here is a picture of some buildings at ORU. ORU is a christain school and all of their buildings have some significance from the bible. For example these buildings. They are built to specific dimensions mapped out in the bible for Noahs Ark. Somebody did some riots math and figured out how measurements in that time translate into measurements of our time. The tallest building represents the length of the ark. Yep, lay that tall building on it's side and you get how long the ark was. The middle buildings the height of the ark. That is how tall the ark was! The smallest building was the width of the ark. So, lay that building on the side and that is how wide the ark was. Isn't that cool that someone did that? Noahs Ark was huge. If you are anywhere in Tulsa you can see these buildings. I love it. Can you imagine a boat that big with tons of animals? God is so cool.

Fun Frame For You

Okay, so I was talking with a kamp mom about how the winter can be so dreary.  Snow is fun but most the time it means that the sun is not out.  I love the winter weather, but after awhile I long for the days of summer.  So here is a fun thing you can do when its cold outside, and then maybe put up some favorite pics of camp.  (or any summer fun)  Kamp has yearly been my summer fun since I was age 10.  I am now 32...you do the math of how many summers that is.  (as a kid my family would also have fun in colorado every summer too)  Okay, the pic above is what the finished product looks like.  Here are the instructions how to.  If building the frame is too advanced for you then you can take the glass out of an old frame...paint it and insert the wires.  You could do it how they instructed OR you could staple a peice of yarn or string across the back (staple each side on the back of the picture frame.  Have fun!

Double Dream Hands

Someone shared this with me and I love it.  It makes me laugh and I am trying to figure out how we can use this at camp.  I think my favorite part is "Shoulder, Chin, Shoulder, Shoulder, Shoulder."  I want you guys to learn it for yourself!

The Babies are Here!!!!! Well, almost.

There are three K-1 Babies that were due this year.  (When I say "year"  I mean the time between summer)
Melissa Houston, Callie Dolloff and Kristin Cole.  (We knew about Callie and Melissa this summer..Kristin found out after kamp!  Totally Snakes!)

Two Out of Three Have Had thwir babies!

Meet Bennett Leanne Houston  (She will be called Bennett)





Meet Nicholas Jed Dolloff  (He will be called Jed)  Rejoice all you Jayhawk fans.  He is already sportin the gear. 







Kristen hasn't had her baby yet...coming soon.  My question is will he or she be embarassed of their mom when they see this picture in 20 years.  Maybe they will think their uncle Lucas (tall one on the right) is pretty cool.
