Fun before the fun

As we gear up to go to Canada, I was emptying my memory card into the computer to make room for more pics and realized... wow we had quite a busy month before the summer. In a way I was overwhelmed being that I would have too many to post when we get back from Canada. I mean, the Canada trip itself I'm sure we'd turn up with hundreds of pictures! So, here's a recap:


Liz and Tobi visited from Illinois! She got engaged here and we took them to Islands of Adventure:




Liz had been my good buddy since high school and am grateful how much we still keep in touch.



My new calling at church... working with the achievement day girls. I absolutely love it!



GIRLS CAMP! A whole week of heat and mosquito bites. But let's not forget to mention, the fun! I've never served in this capacity before and I truly enjoyed myself :)

the girls



We were labeled the mean girls because we had everybody's flags by the end of the week. Well, not only that, the girls loved pranking too :P


Father's Day picnic at Green Key:




And guess who turned 8???? Julia! My cute cousin who seemingly had an elmo cake last year... now Hannah Montana :P





Well I think that was a pretty good recap, or so I think. Pretty good in the circumstances that we leave in 2 hours for Canada and have not finished packing yet. Hehe... what'd I tell ya... yet another downfall. This internet just sucks the life out of me :P Toodles!
