Camp 2014: JEFF and HONOR

In talking to us about his experiences from Camp Barnabas this year, Joshua kept saying, "we did JEFF." I couldn't figure out what they did to Jeff...or if he meant that they HELPED someone named Jeff.

He finally told us that JEFF meant, Joy-Excitement-Fellowship-Fun, "or something like that," he said. And each cabin competed for that award each day. Joshua's cabin never won that award, but he told us that they DID get on our cabin one day.

Holly and I looked at him, and then looked at each other. "What, Joshua?"

"We got on our cabin."

We asked him what that meant, because, on the way to camp, Holly saw a large GOAT on top of a dog house...like, standing up on top of the dog house...so when Joshua said they got "on our cabin," my first thought was that maybe there was a way they all climbed up there or something. And my second thought was...well, that can't be safe, can it? Joshua said, "I don't know what it means, but we weren't expecting it at ALL, that's for sure." Then, he told us that, because they got on our cabin, they all got ice-cream sandwiches.

Ohhhhh...HONOR cabin.

He said they got that award for making their beds and keeping their things neat...and then he reminded us that he makes his bed EVERY day and keeps his things neat EVERY day. And he does. But apparently, their group of FRIENDS did exceptionally well, and won the Honor Cabin award.

And all this happened on the same day they had "bah-sketti" for dinner...and giant cookies the size of FEET...for dessert.

Alrighty, then.

Sounds yummy.

Oh! Speaking of FEET, Joshua said that he got mud all over his shoes on the last night. Holly looked at the shoes he was wearing in the car and they looked perfectly fine...so she asked him, "which shoes?" Joshua looked down at his feet...and looked back at her and said, "BOTH!"

"For the honor of Your name, O LORD, forgive my many, many sins." Psalm 25:11
