Freckle Juice

Ever since I can remember I've had freckles. They. Are. My. Favorite. Feature. Seriously though, I love my freckles! I have lots of them too! I've heard that I've been "kissed by angels" and that I'm "sun kissed" and a lot of other compliments regarding my freckles all my life!

The weather has been great lately. The sun is out and warming things up. I have been making every excuse to be outside. All the sun that I've been enjoying has graced my skin read: tan with NEW freckles!!! I've noticed I have a fairly decent sized one on my bottom lip! Who knew you could get freckles on your lips?!? I've gained several more on the rest of my face, but I can't tell you which ones because I have so many!


Spring is finally here and summer is soon to follow! I absolutely love warm weather and have so many events are happening starting Saturday (every single weekend until June there is something going on) I look forward to being busy!



Do you have a feature that you are always complimented for? What are you looking forward to this spring and summer?

Exciting News

Remember back when I worked at a camp over the summer a couple of times? I will be returning to the Santa Cruz Mountains yet again for the summer! The last couple of times I worked at Mission Springs up at Frontier Ranch I was a camp counselor. This summer I will not be returning as a camp counselor, but as a... (insert drum roll here)... RED HAT! Okay so I'll beat you to the punch line before you ask what that even is... and yes I will be wearing a "red" hat :)

Red Hats also known as Challenge Course Team are in charge of but not limited to... Zip Line, Rock Wall, High Ropes Course, and Flying Squirrel... Pretty much if it has a rope, harness, helmet, and carabiners I will be in charge of it! I'll be one of six red hats and I am support staff.

I'll touch on what support staff means. I will not be sleeping in a cabin, but instead in "the lodge" where ALL support staff lives for the summer. I DO get to interact with the campers everyday just not like being a counselor does.

I officially start on June 5th for two weeks of training the first day of camp is June 19th which also happens to be the day after my brother's wedding... Now that you have connected the dots and are probably thinking "Girl you be Krazy!" (I really must be crazy if I spell crazy with a K...) Two siblings are getting married not even a full month apart and my parents will need my help, BUT they understand my reasons for getting out of town and just coming home for the weddings. I already have days off for said weddings, AND this isn't even about me! I get to spend a summer honoring my Lord Almighty :) and camp will conclude on August 13th.

Sure my summer is going to be boring extremely exciting and busy, I do think that God has placed this in my narrow rocky path for a reason. And I'm excited for you all to live vicariously through me at camp!


Two months and counting :)



Did you go to camp? What kind of camp was it? How many years did you attend? If you didn't go to camp did you wish you could? and Will you send your kids to camp?

Overwhelmed

Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
Isaiah 40:31 NIV


God can bring rest to us, even in the midst of our busy and challenging days.




Now that it's been good weather; I've noticed that I have become a lot busier. Somedays I feel as if my days are over booked and that I just need a moment to myself. Have you EVER had one of those years? Months? Weeks? Days?.... Oh it's just me?... Ok so this is a bit awkward....


I really can't remember what happened in the month of March... I failed at writing every single day for the month... does writing everyday for 2 weeks count? I tried ok? I told you I can't remember what even happened all of a sudden April was here!
