Campmeeting Memories

We just got back Sunday from 12 days of camp pitch and campmeeting. We had a good time and as always it was very, very busy. Because we had a baby this year, we were allowed to stay in the dorm. That had it's pluses and minuses. Overall, we were grateful to be there. Here are a few memories that we carried away from Michigan campmeeting this year.

1. Taking the camera, but forgetting the SD card. Too bad, only phone quality pictures!

2. Chaeli and Dillon sleeping together on one twin bed. Their heads were at opposite ends...that left their feet in the middle. Do you think they ever touched each other??

3. Granola for breakfast and sandwiches for lunch! EVERYDAY!

4. Out of the blue we hear Dillon say, "Thank you, God, for making blue blankies!"

5. Our ride on the tractor tram. We didn't get as many rides on that as we would have liked. But since we were in the dorm, it wasn't necessary. We were close to everything.

6. It was HOT. I mean HOT. Hotter than blue blazes! That was the down side of the dorm. It didn't cool off very quickly at night in the dorm.

7. Our trip home ended first at Urgent Care. Dillon had an ear infection. Thankfully, he is already doing better.

8. Elijah's first tooth popped through. 4 mos old is true to form for the Austin kids.

9. The kids loved their programs. They were filled with songs, crafts, water play, and stories.

10. It was a good time. Dave was working in the teen tent so we really didn't see him much at all. Thank goodness for mealtime. I did, however, make it to three adult seminar, thanks to some church members who helped with the kids. Those were very nice moments for me!

We're now very glad to be home. The laundry continues and there are still things to put away, but I am learning that things just get done more slowly now with three kids. On to July now which is a very, very, very, very busy month!! More to come about those plans later...
