Grandma's Clothes
I have decided that I am happier than I have been in a long time. This job, so far, is perfect. It's hard work and takes so much energy, but is so rewarding. This weekend, I had my first group of kids come. It was our first camp, and it was a single parent camp, that was free for all of the parents. I had 12 twelve year old boys, and two girls. That was crazy. Kids seriously never run out of energy. One of the boys was telling me how he as to take riddilin during the school year, but doesn't have to take it during the summer. He was so happy about it...I don't know how I feel about that haha but it definitely explained his crazy behavior. In the afternoon we got to play capture the flag in the woods. We had cabins and all of these trees...it was the perfect set up. One of the kids named Taylor wasn't having fun in the morning, and I was trying to cheer him up. And then at capture the flag he asked me to be on his team and make sure he didn't forget his football. It was so cute. I was already attached to the kids after one day with them..I can't imagine how it will be after a week!! Oh! So how I was saying I discovered chocolate milk....little did I know the chocolate milk was only a special treat for us. So I will have to find something else to enjoy. They do have mint hot chocolate which should work until it warms up. After my busy Saturday, the grandparents came to pick me up for a day. I thought I had everything packed in my bag for the next day. But when I woke up in the morning..I ran into some problems. I didn't have my clothes for church. So..I got to borrow my grandmas clothes. What an experience. I finally found something that looked semi young, and luckily it fit. Then my aunt brought me a jean jacket so I survived. After church, I was packing up my stuff to go back to Aspen, and looked in the closet to make sure I hadn't forgotten anything. And there were my church clothes...hanging up in the closet. That just goes to show how often I hang things up. And I have learned an important lesson..that hanging things up is pointless. But anyway I finally got back to Aspen, and I can't wait for this next week!
