Greenhill Lake Camp 2012

This was our first successful attempt at going to camp with our kids.  Before now it was just too stressful and just not worth the stress for me, but this year proved that kids get easier as they get older!  (I'm talking 3 and 5 vs babies, not teens, etc...:)  Anyways, we had a great time and here are some pictures of our weekend away:)


This is as still as I could get them to be.  
Owen is shining a mini flashlight up onto 
the rim of his hat and trying to look at it-hehe.
 They each got a big goodie bag when they got there and we unpacked the things they'd need for sleeping (as we got there at 6ish)- so here's Owen's bunk.
 Here's Emmy's bunk and treats.  
Anyone who knows me can only imagine how pumped I was to see my own kids at camp:)

Eating cookies
 Scott at camp:)

Owen is obsessed with that light.
 Snack time at night.  We walked into the dining hall and Emily says, "Is this a restaurant?"

Emily at bedtime- so cute:)
 Owen all snuggled in for the night.  It was about 10pm when we got to bed.
"Owen, lay down" repeated many times over.
 Song time- all the kids had an instrument:)
Emily with her triangle.
 Owen with his sucker- and his tambourine.

Sometimes the sucker won out.
 There's the tambourine occasionally!
 Our friends Darren and Maurica- we always have so much fun together- it was awesome to see them and our kids played together all weekend:)

Worship team from Grand Manan
 Owen takes a nap- so tired from the late night- cute:)
 Emily and Rebekah were thick as thieves:)


This building was super cool.  The door was cool and the inside even better- 
a rock climbing room!  First time I've ever done it- it was fun!
 Waiting for someone to get the key and open the door
 Owen's onto another sucker
 Maurica and Emily- isn't this cool?  Emily's climbing one to nine!

Everyone wanted to try it.  It was super fun.
 This was a cool net-swing thing that the kids got in and then we swung them.
They were loving it.
 I learned a lot over the weekend about King David and how he relates to us- it was challenging.
 Our friends' Dale and Lois brought their grandson- Cohen
 Scott speaking.  He did a great job.  I love him so much.  The end!
