We Survived Family Camp!

So this weekend, after "adopting" Catie for the trip, we joined many others at the LGPC Church Family Camp 2006 at YMCA's Camp Collins in Troutdale. Mucho fun was had, and I tell you, it's great to be at camp and converse with adults rather than just teens! Hannah got to play wiffle ball for the first time, and after some coaching from Pastor Matt, she got a hit, and later a home run! Woo hoo! Saturday afternoon found the 45er's (4th/5th graders) and older on the diversity course, which is a whole bunch of wired secured about 2 feet off the ground with various ropes and swings to keep you from falling. I think we all fell a couple of times. Saturday night marked a late night round of Disney Trivial Pursuit, girls vs. guys and parents. After a few hours, the girls one by a single pie and some hints from the parents. Sunday brought out the rope swing and also, for the older kids and adults, the treetop wire stuff, which I was able to join in on last minute, accompanied by a rubber chicken for support...if the chicken hadn't been with me, I think I would have bailed at the second rope! Altogether too short of a time, and we will definitely be returning next year!
