Summertime!!

Well it has been a while again!!! This summer has flown by just like a hurricane would. We started the summer getting up at 730 am every day to start swimteam practice and would stay there typically til 11 am. Ok yes that is a long time! I didnt stay and do that EVERY day, but it was often enough! The great thing is that our team had a fabulous season!! WE won all but one meet and only lost that one by 13points!! One race!! We have some great swimmers!!

I also had a job the first ten days of summer and believe it or not, it was really fun!! yes stressful, but really fun! I got to know six other women really well!!It was a hard decision when I chose to leave that job and go to Panama City with our church youth group!!! Big Stuff is the name of the camp and it is PHENOMENAL!! Just imagine...1500 kids in one room litterally rocking out and praising God!! It was so cool!! I roomed with 12 other girls as we shared two rooms that joined one another!! Our room was a MESS!! but it was a fun mess... dance parties til 2am and long talks at strange hours... We were the place to get snacks!! we would have made out like bandits had we charged for the stuff!!! I pray that the girls got as much out of the week as I did!! It was life changing!! Oh not to mention the bus breaking down on our ride home!! We luckily, as the kids put it "we landed in PARADISE!!" It was a very nice mans' land with a pond and we got to swim in it!!!

Fast forward to the here and now!! WE have laid low and seen all kinds of movies, played games, gone to the pool and just hung out together!! Life is great and we are done with swim team! And we are going to Mom and Dads in Camden AL to hang with them and the family for the Fourth!!

Oh yeah, somewhere in there, I turned 38!! I had a great weekend with my sister!! It was a blast!!! And I had my first head cutting ceremony with my best friend from high school!!She is so totally amazing!! I cant believe how postively well and courageously she is attacking her breast cancer!! I never knew she had it in her!! But man I am so glad to see it!!! Well that is our summer so far!! Cant wait to see what the month of JULY holds for us!!
