No catching up just living life

I know its been a long time since I've written on my blog but life happens.  Life keeps going on regardless if you write about it or not.  I've actually been writing but in a journal instead.  I haven't done that in such a long time.

Anyways here is the latest!

My Sara bear went to her first winter camp weekend with our church and had a really good time.

The first few things she started to talk about were the silly pranks the girls and boys played on each other.  Then she explains the silly pink dot on her nose, saying they were all told they needed one and it helped bond them together.  (the girls)  She also shared with me that she ate 6 pickles!  My little pickle girl.  Later she begins to giggle and laugh for a few minutes before sharing about a conversation that all had as a group...she said between giggle and a pink glowing face....poop!  "mom we shared stories about poop!"  To say the least I gave her a strange look but couldn't help but smile and giggle with her especially when she shared with me her story of "poop".

From pranks, pickles and poop to piggies in a pen and sardines.  Two games they played, and apparently Sara was a good little piggy.  But after all the "fun" stuff and "silly" stuff and new ways of bonding what seem to stick with her that she said she enjoyed doing was helping.  Helping at Hope Cottage and re-organizing their library.

So I think its safe to say that we are both happy with her first experience of winter camp at church that this is only the beginning...

Thanks Rachel and everyone involved

P.S. Sara said the food was great especially the Chicken Parmesan.  I will have to get your recipe Diane.

Sara now feels like she has had a chance to get to know Beth and Emily better.  And she likes you guys! :)

Sara had fun doing donuts with Ryan....I guess no worries she is safe and sound lol

Sara shared her story from Dave Myers about punching cows

and of course the music she enjoyed!

Great job everyone!
