Playing Catch Up.....

This blog is purely just going to be all the pictures I have taken in the last 50+ days!  They will not be dated because I do not have the determination nor the drive getting that accomplished, sorry.

New Staff have arrived and I can save lives again!!!!!

Sorry I have been sooo behind on the Blog.  I have kept up with the pics; however since the internet is .25 miles away from my home I do not have too much motivation to use the computer on my free time.  Here are this past week's pictures.  I'll keep this portion short :)

1,000 too many pens

I have finally finished what Nicole had started and completed TOS staff of 23!!!  It's an awesome and yet scary feeling because now I know the season is just around the corner.  EEK!  I experienced my first rookie mistake this week by ordering 1,000 too many pens than we needed for the instructors this season, oops.  Although in my defense the same company just 2 different styles of pen I have ordered come in different sized packaging (one style came by the dozen, another by a box of 60 count).  Super inconsistent. 

Terrence visited for the weekend so I went to see "that 1 guy" with Laura and Terrence.  AWESOME concert!  That man was phenomenal!!!!  The next day we all, including Nicole, had brunch in Austin and saw a movie as well.  I am not even going to mention the name of the movie because A. it was awful and B. I don't remember the name.  Overall, it was an excellent weekend though :)

1/28/2011 - Terrence and Laura (Babs) with That 1 Guy.  Oddly enough, Babs and That 1 Guy have the exact same smile.














01/29/2011 - Somehow during brunch fake dry heaving came into conversation.  I was not very good at faking the heaves.














1/30/2011 - Socrates and Yoda in my bedroom.  Yoda fits perfectly in between the bed and the window.  She's tiny.  Socrates takes up the entire bed...he's huge.
















1/31/2011- The swimming pool on property














1/31/2011 - A bird chillin' on the spur at the pool.

Band Oh Brothers

It's been almost a week since I posted some pictures, I'm not so hot at this technology stuff. *sigh* Today was a rough day as I posted on the google buzz this was the main story of my day:

1. Spilled coffee on my shirt
2. Spilled soup on my pants
3. Stung by a bee
4. Computer did not work for 2.5 days and didn't work all morning
5. Ordered 1,000 more pens than I should have for the instructors

This was one of those days where all I did was laugh about it.  So really it was a funny day rather than a sad day...and I got to Skype with Kyle tonight so it was a SUPERB day in the end :)

1/22/2011 - Lindsay on Nicole's little couch....sadly at this time this is the only piece of furniture in Nicole's sweet new apartment.















1/23/2011 - The first night I saw Baby Deer which I heard camp apparently claimed.  He was with a bunch of other wild deer however he was too quick for the pic so I took one of the sunset instead.

1/24/2011 - The day the computers went down....Moak Sir and Mr. Wiggy resorted to snail mail.  














1/25/2011- Baby Deer alone and acting like Camp Champions' pet once again!!  Woohoo my first legit interaction with Baby Deer in front of the maintenance shed!!!















1/26/2011 - Crystal's (camp retreat intern) car has a carstache...no joke people.















1/27/2011 - The infamous chair where I got my first Texas bee sting.  The chairs were all together in a half circle earlier, odd.  The back blue ones are the more guilty chairs of this incident.
