Joshua and Abigail got to go to camp this summer, because of the generosity of the camp's founder who knows their missionary grandparents. It was the kids' first camp experience and they had a great time. Horton Haven Camp has posted it's own set of photos, of the week Joshua and Abigail attended at: http://www.hortonhaven.org/image/summer-2009/early-teen-1

The cabins were VERY nice. Jenn and I have never seen, in life or film, such clean and bright and all-around nice looking cabins!

Chloe understood what was going on -that Abby and Josh were going to stay here -and she started crying. "I want to stay here!"

This and the following photos are from the last day, when Tim went to pick them up. (Chloe and mom were sick.)

Joshua beside his camp leader and his best camp friend -who also had long hair :-)

Abigail beside her best camp friend. (Abigail, unfortunately, did not take her camera to camp. I brought it to her on the last day.)

Joshua was nicknamed "Jesus" the whole week. He liked it.

One last Chapel time before heading home. Abigail is front and center, in red.

They announced the winning teams for various things. Abigail was excited!
