Where did the summer go?

Our humble abode for our two weeks at camp

We got home from Blue Haven last Friday evening and I just realized I have about 2 weeks until I go back for inservice at school. I can't believe the summer has flown by so fast. We had a great time visiting with Chad's grandparents in Lubbock, and we also got to see Brandi and Keith, her fiance. Brandi and I decided it has been almost two years since we saw each other. So it was really good to catch up with her and talk about their upcoming wedding in August.

Then, we went to Amarillo for a couple days for Matt's wedding which was also fun. After about an hour at the reception we decided we needed to leave if we wanted to get to Blue Haven at a decent hour--luckily we gained an hour on our way there and got to Blue Haven around 10:30 p.m.

Our time at Blue Haven was fun. Chad was especially busy as the camp nurse. I had a little more freedom since I was only "nurse's helper." It sounds made up but it was harder than it seemed. We had a good time with Shawn, Emma and Elle and seeing other Blue Haven people that we hadn't really spent any time with since we were counselors. We both were asked to do devos for the 4 7th and 8th grade cabins (split up by boys and girls) and we also squeezed in a little time at the challenge course. They've got this huge swing now and a zipline which we both did. It was a lot of fun. Of course now I'm going through Blue Haven withdrawal, which you think would have subsided now that I'm almost 25 years old, but no. Here are some pictures of our time at Blue Haven.

Chad is on his way to Phoenix right now for an interview with a company called AirEvac. He is interviewing for a flight medic position opening up here. Please keep him in your prayers.

I think that's about it for now.
