Berry Season

Sunday evening I went blueberry picking in Canada with my parents. It was a great evening for picking! We thought it was going to be a little on the warm side, but it wasn't too bad. Now just imagine these little guys on your cereal, in a shake, pie, or just plain! :)
My mom always looks cute-even picking berries!
Dad was mostly our 'scouter', but he definitely did a good job of 'clean picking' too.
The prize? A five quart pail after only about an hour and a half!

Summer's Second Half

Isn't it unbelievable that the summer is already coming to an end? I really can't believe that it is happening. Well, as I shared with you before, I have been at Bluewater Covenant Bible Camp for the summer and it has been heavenly, really. :) I previously posted pictures from the first half of the summer and now here are summer pictures from the second half. These are maybe the kind of pictures you don't want to see, but yes, we did let kids ramp their bikes (with helmets and landing in the sand volleyball court). It was pretty crazy and fun to watch! (There are some good bikers out there! :)
This looks like it could be a not so soft landing!
Here's Aaron's "unibrow"! :)
My second 5th and 6th grade cabin group!


7th & 8th graders! (7 of the 10, one girl missed the picture, were from Roseau)
The kitchen crew had some fun with the juice glasses!
Isn't this gorgeous!
9th & 10th graders!
More 9th & 10th graders!
Here are a couple from 4th of July! I love this one of Madison and Micah with their sparklers!
My friend Joslin.
There was a water balloon popping contest...Joslin and I had a very difficult time getting it to pop but got many good laughs out of it!

A Birthday Party-Kid Style!

For my birthday, my friends Pam, Joslin, and Laurie threw a "Wall-E" birthday party for me! It was pretty cute because they had a Wall-E tablecloth, 'Happy Birthday' banner, glasses, and a cake! (Thus the feeling like a kid with a themed party. :) ) It was pretty nice.
The cake!
Testing out the cake....
and giving it a "thumbs up."
Here is the Wall-E that Pam made in the craft cabin-isn't it so cute?! Guess how many hours she put into it??.....7 HOURS! Good work, Pamela!
