These are the excited faces of some of the youngest kids at Day Camp on the Olympic Peninsula this year. They actually thought they were going to camp, and in a way I guess they were...to their own private toddler camp along with about 6 others. This year, we had about 65 kids ages 6-14 sign up for camp. This was a wonderfully perfect number compared to the nearly 90 last year. We had over 15 CIT teens helping out the 30 or so volunteer staff. God blessed us with a beautiful week of weather and everything went smoothly. Alan and I are the team leaders of the oldest class. We had 14 campers ages 11-14. I shouldn't be, but I am amazed at how God has worked on my heart and confidence these last two years working with teenagers. They are in my thoughts and prayers often now and I am so thankful that has taken over rather than my fear of even a year ago. God can do anything can't He?Here are all the campers on the last day during the camp wide relay games.That made a lot of balloons to pick up!
The infamous Tug-Of-War - no one got hurt this time!!! And the kids always love to get their parents involved so the lines are quite long.

I have certainly noticed a positive difference in your confidence level working with the teens now compared to when you first began. It's awesome what God can do when we simply surrender ourselves to Him for His glory and use. I'm proud of you, Krysten. You've been faithful, and I know God is surely using you in the lives of these teens. :)
