Well Ian and I have returned from our wonderful vacation. We drove over 3500Km in 10 days and saw so many beautiful mountains and rivers what a sight! The first night we stayed in Jasper and shared our campsite with some wild elk that were grazing on our trees. We were lucky enough to not have seen any bears though and we were very thankful when morning came and all our food was where we left it. We spent time with some friends in Sherwood Park just outside of Edmonton. It was so good to catch up and to hang out. We slept in and started our vacation off right! Next we headed to Kamloops to visit more friends and after a bit of a wrong turn in the rain we discovered that Vancouver was not very far away. We spent a day in Kamloops and decided to revise our travel plans to visit family and friends in Langley and Abbottsford. It was so refreshing to relax and to hang out with friends and to catch up with family. We then started back to Saskatoon through Golden and Calgary and saw all the beautiful jagged Rocky Mountains in between Langley and Calgary. Then back to the flat prairies for us as we stopped in Swift Current for a quick visit with our parents. We ended our vacation with a night at the stock car races and then started back to camp on Sunday morning. Our vacation was much needed and enjoyed as we spent time together enjoying God’s amazing creation.
We are back at camp now and into our last 3 weeks of camp so the end is very close. We are currently in the junior camp week and things are going well. Ian spent all day yesterday making a Star Wars spoof skit for the kids. It looked pretty amazing with the light sabers and everything so that was fun. The kids seem to be responding well to all the movies this year so that has been encouraging too. Next week is our 2nd intermediate camp and then our 2nd junior high camp and then we are done so we are in the home stretch now. I am looking forward to going back to work and I think Ian is eager to go back to school as well. Thank you to all who have been praying for us over the summer. We have really appreciated all your prayers and support. We would love to hear from you so send us an email or leave a comment here on our blog. Take Care and God Bless.
Love and Prayers,
Ian and Jenn
