June adventures

I know it's July already, but I just wanted to give a little update on what I've been doing lately:

For about a year, I've been growing out my hair for Locks of Love.  I figured if I'm going to grow it for awhile, I might as well donate it to a good cause! 

Here's a before shot:
At the salon:
And after (14 inches later):

Whew, it feels so much better and it's nice to think that I can be a blessing to someone else!  I wanted to get this done before my next adventure...Joni and Friends Camp, which I believe I shared about in this post.

I had a wonderful week at camp being stretched, challenged, molded, and being made in His workmanship (our theme for the week from Ephesians 2:10.)  I was assigned to the same great camper that I was with last year so it was a blessing to continue our relationship.

We were able to take part in fun activities such as:

Airhockey.  She beat me every time!  Haha.
Paddleboats  :)
Crafts
A coffeehouse
And opening birthday gifts.  :) 
My favorite picture of us from the week!

Let's not forget the annual campfire with singing and smores; the waterslide; and the excellent Talent Show, put on by campers and their STM's (Short-Term Missionary's.)  I was grateful to share the experience with a good friend this year.  God is good and I'm thankful I was able to experience the joys (and many tears!) of JAF once again.

One more adventure that I'm about to begin: A couch to 5K running program with my brother.  We'll see how that goes.  Last night was our first attempt and it was a little rough.  Let's hope it gets better!  I'll try to keep you posted.

What have some of your adventures been so far this summer?
