Campa Extremo Day 2

Camp Day 2 was awesome! It began with an amazing breakfast of pancakes and bacon, thanks to Justin and Casey. The kiddos love the combo of peanut butter and syrup. A great start to the day! We then moved to morning devos, beginning Cuanto Nos Ama! (Oh How He Loves!) and Desde Mi Interior (From the Inside Out). Thank you to Jill for the intentionality of learning these songs en espanol to make our morning worship all that more special for the kids. Andrea has enjoyed hearing some of the kids singing Cuanto Nos Ama! throughout the day during activities. After music Tom gave a devo that was amazing...very engaging, funny, and spoke some great truth!

The morning activities involved a Water Balloon Toss, attacking a Pinata, Minute-to-Win-it games, painting nails (girls and boys both), and making brownies. Then after lunch they were able to make ice cream in ziplock bags, which made the brownie eating all the more special. To work off all the sweets we then went to a time of campers vs. leaders Marshmallow Dodgeball. I must say it was hilarious to watch the kids and the adults run around like crazy pelting each other with marshmallows. It was a hit! Then we transitioned to the EXTREME RELAY where the teams raced all over campus in doing crazy things and cheering for one another.

Dinner consisted of grilled hot dogs and chips (from THE BIGGEST bag of chips I have ever seen). And we then had a campfire and the teams acted out bible stories. We ended the night watching Rio and having S'mores. What a terrific day.

Today is the last day of camp and we're heading off soon to the zoo. More to come. Thank you for your ongoing prayers. We're having a blast!
