Summer Days!

We had an "off" week where we could relax, get some work done, and enjoy some of these HOT summer days!

Mom & I caught a matinee of Sister Act at The Lyric!

19 more days until we get to see Cambree!!  Gosh we miss that girl!

We spent one day working on the flip house - finally got the VERY heavy cb radio equipment down from upstairs!

Got the "mother-in-law" house carpet out and down to cement!

This statue on I-45 in Huntsville of Sam Houston always makes me laugh... it's MASSIVE!  (This was on a day trip delivery to Houston!)

Cambree at church - she is in the green dress and her friend Abby is in her purple dress - thanks Amazon!

We've spent a ton of time out at our pool this summer!  It has been SO clear this year!

I like watching - with some 90s country in the background.. :) 

The last 3 weeks of our summer is a whirlwind - we leave today after a youth workday for Alabama for Blu to preach a youth camp, then straight to Falls Creek youth camp with ours, then to Florida to pick up Cambree!

 

FLS Camp 2022

 Last year, Blu had the idea to put together a leadership camp for kids in our area to focus for a week on intense Bible study, plus to help them to form relationships with other Christian leaders in our area.  (Think Super Summer, but WAY cheaper ;)  This was our second year to have it, and we had about 90 kids this year!  It was a great week at Howard Payne as we focused on Following, Leading, and Serving through worship!

Lots of sand volleyball time, but it was HOT!

We selected 9 of our youth (and we had one from another church) for this camp!

Blu & Landon- the Dream Team!

Me and my sweet Camille!

Cason...can't believe he's headed to high school!

Cason & Will

Caedmon & Matt

Caedmon decided to get up and do some "preaching" during a break time!  He had us all rolling on the floor with his devotion from Song of Solomon!

My sweet Blu in the morning - we were tired this week! Perhaps we're getting kinda old to be youth camp sponsors!  

Caed & Matt being goofy

Silent Disco Party!

Camille & Joanie laughing about the creepiest stuffed dog I've ever seen...

Blu taught an AWESOME lesson!

Cason and crew

(When camp was over, the three of us went to see the new Thor!)

We also hung up some new fence decor :)

Love me some Camille!

Rocky Creek crew!

My handsome Cason!

That's a wrap on FLS for this year!  2 more camps to go!

Happy 4th of July!

We've had a week at home, so that's been nice!  We've stayed busy, but it's been nice to sleep in our own bed! (We leave for Leadership Camp with 10 of our youth today!). Here's a look at the 4th of July for our fam!

The Prescotts stopped by on their way out to Ruidoso and we got to enjoy some 42, burgers/hot dogs, and some fun watching Kenny box on the VR headset!

My bestie :)

Kenli :)

I feel like every pic of Kenny & Blu together involves ice cream...

Cason & Kharis :)

Meanwhile on the 4th, Cambree was leading worship with her team at a Christian church in India!

These two...they're about to be apart for a few weeks...they need it!

See what I mean??

Joey came for a visit!  It was good to see him!  These were their "We miss Cambree" faces..

Cason had to challenge him to an arm wrestling match of course...

More fun with the Oculus!

Blu & I have played a few games of Scrabble this week!

This boy loves his banana splits!

Bible quiz at church!

I love having all my boys home! 

An evening at the football field

And a trip out to Paris, TX for a unit set delivery!

Poor Blu drove in from Milwaukee the day before (through the night) and we left at 7am for the Paris delivery!

More Bible quiz!

Practicing kicking!

Paris, Texas :)

The new turf is pretty!

Getting ready for his senior year :(
