Dayspring!

To answer your question, Petr, in laser laser tag, at least the version I played, you have a laser gun and a vest with sensors on it and you just wander around shooting at other people's sensors. It records your score, and then prints out a score card. Very simple, but it can be quite fun.

As mentioned earlier, this last week was camp. It was totally amazing! First off, all of the girls from our church were in on cabin (there were two different rooms), so there were about 30-40 girls in one building having way too much fun way too late at night. The best part was how we did role call every night. The first night, when our name was called, we made animal noises (and gestures if we wanted). I was a lion, so I jumped over a few beds whilst roaring. The next night we died dramatically, the next we played the game where the first person starts a story and the next person adds on and the last person finishes it. The last night we played the no teeth game, in which you have to hide your teeth with your lips and then make the strangest noise possible without showing your teeth. It was good fun.

My small group was great this year. We were all focused so we didn't have to worry about staying on topic, and we had lots of good discussion. There were all different beliefs represented, and people were very open. I loved our leaders, they were very good about getting us onto good discussion topics.

I did manage to wear my ankle out the first day so I had it wrapped the whole week, preventing me from swimming, hiking, playing ultimate or volleyball and I wasn't supposed to jump or run. I did do a bit of that though. I injured my ankle playing softball in '06 and I think what happened with it is that when I went hiking on the first day, I worked it too hard, causing it to hurt.

Nat was at camp too, and he did something most of you may not believe. On Wednesday, he shaved his head for one of the games. I knew it was coming, but I still couldn't believe it, and I'm still not used to it. He was pretty much bald when they did it, but there is some hair growing now.

I don't have pictures on the computer yet, but they will be coming shortly.

In other news, this next week is the kids musical camp, and I am going to have to learn all the hand motions today and tomorrow, and I will have to be working from 8-3 all day Mon.-Thur. plus extra on Thursday. I'll have to let you know how it goes!
