Holy Smokes.

I have so so so much I want to share. Seriously its killing me that I don't have enough time.  My life has been a whirlwind, a good whirlwind, but a extremely, busy, fast, need 30 hours a day whirlwind.  I'm sure I'm not the only one.  Posts I want to share include my brothers 30th birthday party, my moms 100 mile race, ordinary life, and a new wedding gift idea.

I wish I would just slap the pictures on the blog of all these events, but something in my gut says they can't be until they are post-processed.  It's an annoying habit (I think that's what you would call it) that I have. 

On a future note! 

I am leaving tomorrow for the American Society Cancer camp tomorrow for seven days. I am really looking forward to it. I am somewhat nervous too. I hope that for this one week I can help the kids to have a blast and to let all their worries be forgotten for just a moment. I really do hope that I will be a good camp counselor.  I've made tons of decorations for cabin and gifts for the girls. Can't wait to meet them.

Tomorrow will mark fourteen crazy long/short years since my beautiful sister heather passed away.  Gosh we really miss her around here.  I am sad I am going to miss the annual Jenny Lake memorial hike for her, but I know she would be happy that I will be at Camp Rainbow Gold.  Love you long time heath.

And, I've been lucky to take some pictures of the cutest kids lately! You would never know that the weather was horrible this day! They were troopers.

Exciting News.

I know, 2 blog post in one day, I need to take it easy. BUT I have really exciting news.

A couple of months ago I applied for Camp Rainbow Gold (an oncology camp) as a Counselor.
Camp Rainbow Gold is put on the by the American Cancer Society for children who have cancer and their families.  I didn't know if they would allow me to go because I will not be able to attend one of the mandatory days of camp training. The lady I talked to on the phone said she would ask the camp director but my chances were slim.  I practically begged her to let me come and to do all the sweet talking she could to the big man on campus.  After talking to a few different ladies (and telling each of them to put in a good word for me with the director, classy, I know).

Turns out. I got an email today saying I was in.

I CAN NOT WAIT for this experience.  I will be a camp counselor, teaching photography, and playing with the children.  Doesn't it sound heavenly, I think so.
