Jonathan and Anne Marie’s Weblog

Jonathan and I just returned from the FBC Douglasville Youth Camp. Jonathan is in charge of production and singing and playing the drums when we go and I am responsible for leading a room of girls. I have to say out of the past 3 years we have been…this year was definately the best. Jonathan usually stays super busy with all he is responsible for so I dont really see much of him except when we sit down to eat. But this year I was really able to relax and enjoy God working in my life and in the girls lives that I was leading. I also had the best birthday Ive had in the past three years. I mentioned that to Jonathan and he pointed out that we have been married for 3 years, but I assured him that it had nothing to do with him….it was probably the fact that I have spent the past 3 birthdays at youth camp:) So anyways a typical day at youth camp was as follows: Up at 5:30am (because for some reason my girls thought it would be great to wake up that early for not reason and start talking loudly) We didnt have to be up until 7:00. We would do our quiet time then have breakfast. We would have a session with everyone from 9:00-10:00, then we would go back to our rooms to have discussion with our girls. We then would have lunch and head to the beach until dinner time. Following dinner we would have a night session from 7:00 until about 10:00. Then everything from there was insane…kids throwing water baloons, shaving cream, and throwing anyone they could get their hands on into the pool. We werent asleep until about 1-2am. All the messages Kevin gave were awesome and I really think the kids learned a lot. The week flew by and before I knew it we were on our way back home. I have attached some pictures from camp….where my most favorite camera was broken:( Jonathan gave me the camera for Christmas and I took it to shipwreck island where I stuck it in a friends bag. I never saw the bag dropped or stepped on, however when I took it out of the bag the screen was cracked. It still takes pictures, you just cant see what you are taking a picture of. I will add the pictures in a few minutes.
