She asked.<br /><br />"I don't know... I guess it's like if you name a child you remember it's name. OH! We remember B.B.'s name (our dog) because we say it all the time. You don't talk to the goats as much as we do! I guess that's why you don't know the names."<br /><br />"Wow. You need to do a blog post, just for me, so I can see the names with pictures!" She suggested.<br /><br />So, this one's for mom! :)<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S9hKxCoGcHg/SrzxrbndoOI/AAAAAAAAESE/K3E7u5umiG0/s1600-h/DSCF9092.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S9hKxCoGcHg/SrzxrbndoOI/AAAAAAAAESE/K3E7u5umiG0/s400/DSCF9092.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385444982878216418" border="0" /></a>This is Tillie.

It was June 29th-July 4th. Campers had the option to memorize Romans 13 and Ps 119:33-48 to get 50% off the price, or familiarize themselves with it in preparation for the teachings. Surrounded by three teaching sessions a day were games, pool time, study time, and meals. The teaching sessions are so rich with God's word.<br /><div align="center">There were four teams, Red, Yellow, Blue, & Green with at least 14 kids on each. There are team captains, who are young men, they are number ones, then number twos are young men to, and number threes are girls, then the next a girl, etc. Teams get points from quiz time and games. Daily study time is provided to reflect on the teachings and preparation quiz time. </div><br /><div align="center">We had so much fun and learned a lot! God blessed that week a lot! I hope you enjoy! :) </div><br /><div align="center"><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S9hKxCoGcHg/SlpG-Mu4txI/AAAAAAAAEEY/vTm-mDw_pfI/s1600-h/100_7463.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5357672741094340370" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_S9hKxCoGcHg/SlpG-Mu4txI/AAAAAAAAEEY/vTm-mDw_pfI/s400/100_7463.JPG" border="0" /></a>Lydia, Sheph, & me!
