Camp 2009

Chris, me, Joe, Poppa, and Beaux (the dog)
Mama and the other nurses were such a big help with Joe. Here is Trish with Joe in front of the door with all the stickers. He loved all the colors.
This is me and Blair, one of my friends from high school, who came to camp after being gone for several years. It was so good to see her again and have her meet Joe.
We were exhausted most of the week. Below, we (Joe is in his frontal carrier) are serving communion to the counselors with Pop and Barbara.

Twice a year my family and me participate with camps for developmentally disabled adults. One camp in the summer and one camp in the fall. The camp in the summer is the last week of July and lasts an entire week. We all went...my dad is one of the directors, my mom was the nurse, and Chris was a counselor. This year I was the Director's Intern and Joe came with me! I had a feeling it would be difficult for us to spend the whole week in the middle of nowhere with no A/C and without the comforts of home. I had no idea it would be as hard as it actually was though. But we made it through as well as could be expected. And I am really glad that we were all able to go since it's such a major part of our lives. However, Joe and I were excited to be heading home on Saturday!
