Summer 2018

Hello everyone! I just realized that I have not blogged in a vvvvveeeeerrrrrryyyyyy long time so I hope y'all are prepared for blog overload in the next couple of weeks. I had a wonderful summer jam packed full of adventure. From the end of May to the beginning of July, I worked in the office at Camp Chetek. Here are some pictures from camp. Enjoy!

T.E.A.M.: Bonus Week 2

Sorry this has taken so long for me to post. I have been incredibly busy since camp with my cousin's wedding, vacation, and all the busyness of school. Here are the rest of the pictures from T.E.A.M. this summer. Looking back at these pictures makes me miss my wonderful friends/brothers and sisters in Christ even more! Love you and miss you guys!

In honor of Isaac, we wore pink aprons. 

 

 Sarah & I matched!

 Ritz & I 

 Playing "Never Have I Ever"

Bubba giving Amanda & Eryn lessons on how to walk on the roof. 

 They made it to the top! 

 Putting siding up. I think this picture was before the screaming started. 

I had a wonderful, hilarious video of the two of them attempting to put the siding up. They were both terrified and whenever the nail gun was used, Eryn screamed. But alas, in order to be able to take more pictures, I had to delete the video. :(

 Bubba trying on Amanda's headband. 

 They trusted me to use a saw! 

 Grant playing some music for us. 

 Jake & his Ukelele

Us "Three Musketeers" 

Hope you guys enjoy the pictures. Remember Unity - striving together for the gospel and glory of Christ. Miss you guys!

T.E.A.M. 2014: Bonus Week 1

 Daniel has an app on his phone that makes it so when you speak into the phone, 

you hear yourself in the earphones 2 seconds later. We had a lot of fun with that.

 Grant brought his guitar with him and just sat and played.

PR trying to say the Mission Statement of Camp Chetek with the app.

Camp Chetek: T.E.A.M. 2014: Week 3

The third week of T.E.A.M. was full of more work and fun. Us girls continued to do the housekeeping work and the guys did the maintenance work, until Thursday. On Thursday, we traded jobs with the boys. So us girls got to learn how to weld in the morning and then in the afternoon, we split up and did other jobs. Erin, Mandy, Hanne, Bubba, and I got to rip out bushes by the 4 plexes. We had a lot of fun.  Then for our reward activity, we went bowling and had root beer floats. 

 Erin and Mandy hooking up the bush.

 Bubba, had just a little bit of fun with the Cat.
