preamble to the school year

Last Wednesday, the night before pre-session meetings began, a hummer got stuck in the garage. I finally caught him by slipping my hand over him while he was perched in the dark.

1st day of Pre-Session: praying over new staff members

Tessa and Olivia at the Watkins' so we could work on the class schedule

they've been practicing

hooked up from the PC to TV with our new class schedule

Thursday afternoon was CPR class with Brett Snow. They're assembling the dummies.

ready for resuscitation

Friday afternoon we went swimming with Nikie and Carson.

After Carson was dry and changed, he had fun throwing his shoes at Ryan in the pool.

He got quite a kick out of himself. This was fun until he reached for a shoe in the water that was too far out and fell in headfirst, requiring another shower and change of clothes. :( Good thing Ryan was there to snatch him out quickly!

Chadd and Nikie decided to take on the chapel in the guys' dorm and give it a minor facelift. I have been helping them paint and watch Carson. We let him help paint this wall.

I'll post some "after" shots later, but it's almost done!

Sunday and Monday our teaching staff met at Indian Creek Camp for a presentation on Kids in Discipleship (K.I.D.) with the other conference teachers and pastors. This is the A-frame chapel with very uncomfortable chairs.

Waking up at 5:30a (!) Monday gave me the opportunity to walk down to the lake and take a few pictures before breakfast. Some of the staff were coming in from slalom skiing.

Laura (Ashlock) Wensell and two friends led song services for the group.

Today's 95-ish degree temp led to this evening's thunderstorms. Look familiar? We had clouds like these roll through earlier this summer.

In 2 days we'll have the first group registered and be headed way too quickly to classes starting on Monday! AAHhhhhhahahAAAhHH!
