Just a short entry.
Hi! Wow, it's been almost a year since I've been on here. Anyways, this is just a short blog because I don't have much time right now. Maybe I'll go more in depth at some other time.

I started missing camp as soon as i got back lol. I can't wait for next year! Anyway, I'll blog more about this later, and maybe post some pictures

Tomato Sauce Making.
We grew a ton of canning and early slicing tomatoes earlier this year, and for several months (at least it seemed like it) we didn't get a single tomato. Within the last month and a half, however, we have had so many tomatoes that I can't think of eating another of those kinds, I would eat some of mine and my brother's though because they are heirloom kinds, and taste really good. Anyway, for the past couple of weeks, because we don't have a canner and we like homemade spaghetti and pizza, we have been making tomato sauce and freezing it. After one of my siblings cleans the tomatoes, my job is to put them (the tomatoes) in a pot of boiling water until they are slightly cooked, then I put them in cold water, and take the skins off. Afterwards, I put them in a large pot and simmer them for several hours, until most of the water evaporates, then when it cools down a bit, I put it in ziplock bags and into the freezer. I have been doing this for a couple of weeks, and I don't think I'll ever complain about not having tomatoes again! It is pretty fun though, for a while
TTYL,

Camp Joy
Hi everyone,
This is my first blog entry, now I'm not very good at writing about myself but here goes. These are some stories about things that happened at Camp Joy.
My cabin's name was Mt. Horeb, and one day the lady who usually inspected our cabins was busy so she had three of the men counselors inspect the girls cabins, and she had three of the women counselors inspect the boys cabins. Unfortunatly, that day someone sabotaged our cabin after we had cleaned it, and at lunch when the counselors read the cabin reports, they began our report with, "And now for Mt. Horrible." It was embaressing then, but it's kind of funny now.
Most of the classtimes, we learned about influences on Joseph's life. At Wednesday night's chapel service, the pastor was preaching on "If my people, which are called by my name will humble thamselves," and that was as far as he got because the Holy Spirit moved on us, and a bunch of people went forward to pray; and from that night till the end of the week, several campers and counselors gave up their tobacco.
The last night of camp we had a campfire service where people gave testimonies, and some people threw their music in the fire. In our cabin that night after devotions, we went around the cabin telling jokes, then we had snacks, and afterwards some of the girls in my cabin gave makeovers to the other girls. I had intended to stay up all night, but after my makeover, I could barely keep my eyes open, and I barely made it to my bed.
