I am literally exhausted to the point of loopy. My right leg is swollen and completely bruised ankle-to-knee resulting from a bench falling on it during our s'mores campfire. I am inspired from and challenged by an amazing speaker we had this weekend, as I am always surprised how as a leader I feel God blesses me as much as He does the students. My back has reached a new level of pain from all the walking, hiking, sitting and standing and "enjoying" a lovely and weak camp-like bunk bed for two nights. There is still a nice goopy consistency to my hair, since from experience I know it takes multiple washes to fully remove shaving cream from it after we played a rendition of shaving cream/silly string tag in the dark late last night (I was naive enough to think as a leader I might actually stay clean). All these things woven together.... simply prove it was a successful youth retreat! Although after months of details and planning and a long weekend... I am so glad its over. :) It was worth missing the NFL draft this weekend (oh man but it hurt so so bad to!)
Fun lookin' bunch huh... and yes lots o boys. Now onto planning our trip to Panama City Beach, FL in July... uuuuuuuuh it never ends!
