Interview With Camper Heaven Brandt




Our camper has returned!! She has brought with her numerous stories, songs and verses to share! She said she most definitely wants to return next year! She was scheduled to ride the bus home on Saturday morning, but elected to come back with me Friday night instead. She gave it some serious thought, but several of the girls in her cabin (Cabin 5) were leaving with their parent's so she decided to surprise the rest of the Brandtitos by returning a few hours early. (Plus her cabin leader said she had been a little homesick, only on the last day though). Before going home, Heaven showed me around some of her favorite places, introduced me to several of the girls she'd met, and had dinner with me at the dining hall. We also went to the closing awards ceremony where the campers who had placed highest in the sporting events at camp received their medals/ribbons & also where the campers performed a few of the songs and verses they'd learned throughout the week.

Heaven said her favorite activity was zip lining, but she also enjoyed the archery and sharp shooting. She said now that she knows what to expect, next year she's going to practice her skills before camp so she can be competitive against the other kids. If we will only buy her a bb gun or bow and arrow that is.....

Sure the kids were BORED ( I know, because they told me about 65 Bazillion times) but nothing beats a rainy afternoon movie marathon & an excuse to wear gym clothes all day long. Well...not much does anyway. Before the downpour started we ventured out to Art in the Park. Heaven was *so excited*. She loves art and was thrilled to have a chance to see "real" artwork and talk with some "real" artists ( I was a little offended she does not consider me a part of this "real" artist list...I mean, she's seen what I can do with some glitter glue). Mr. Eric Cobb was at the top of her list. He's been a Bestie of mine for years and is amazingly talented. If you're in the market for some palette knife artwork, you should check out his fabulousness  for yourself. Totally not the ...

The Who's Who of Whoville

 The girls had their church Christmas Program this weekend. They performed at both morning services and were equally amazing each time around! They've been practicing for the mast few months, and all their hard work most definitely paid off.
