favorite thing to do.

 

hold hands. jump in.

alles hat ein ende.

(might take a while to load)

Camp is almost over. Our sessions are a week long, so it is only 2 more full sessions after this. It's crazy to think about it and I try not to. My tan is not complete, there are still so many things I want to do. A midnight swim, putting up a hummingbird feeder,... I hate to know exactly when I leave certain places and it always makes me sad that time flies so quickly.

Talking about next year is weird, too. "You know, you could work at the horse ranch next year." Coming back next year is so tempting but I could think about so many other cool things to do. But Camp grew on me and spending another summer here would be so good. I guess I just have to wait to make that decision.

I want to linger...

 Always makes me sad when we sing it-

Mm-Mm and come September
We’ll all remember
Camping days and friendships true


Mm-Mm and as the years go by
Remember this and sigh
This is goodnight and not good bye.

everyday crazy camp life

what can I say.

Camp blows my mind with its craziness every single day.

casual friday night. haha

 

driving to the middle of nowhere and then riding on the back of a TRUCK (!!) even deeper in to the woods. 

 

having a bonfire!!!

glimpse of the weekend

 

From now on, we have weekends off. No campers from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon. 

Woop woop!

This weekend was by far my favorite: we went out for such a nice dinner on Friday night and then went to see 'Magic Mike' (the stripper film with Channing Tatum). I was a little bit disappointed by the movie, but Channing Tatum is still my future husband and no film ever changes that (haha).

 Saturday was tanning time, followed by a TRAIL RIDE (FINALLY!!) with the horses- It was the perfect afternoon, being back on a horse was pure bliss. 

We went out for dinner again that night and went to a house party afterwards. 

Cannot wait for the next weekend  ♥

what I really love about camp

 

- not taking a shower for like ...ever

and not caring (unless the rash starts creeping up)

-making bracelets for hours

and loving it

- singing songs at campfire

- tanning every day

-all the freakin squirrels

- s'mores- duuuh

- sneaking away to swim when the kids are not in the lake. morning and evening swims are my ABSOLUTE favorite 

- no make up, basically we all look like hobos and no one cares

- seeing HUMMINGBIRDS!!!!

....

ih bah

So glad I have my camera with me, like ALL the time.

Otherwise you would not see this lovely picture of a turtle eating a fish now. 

haha

good times

boating after dinner is always good when it looks like this ♥

4th of July

 

 

 

Mall Of America

 

During our time in Minneapolis, we went to the Mall of America. It is the BIGGEST Mall in America and I wanted to go for so long. I still cannot believe it, it is absolutely crazy- Rollercoasters in the middle, shops all around. I still don't know my way around, but I guess that is more or less normal. Over 500 stores, two huge food courts, so many restaurants... you can easily spend 2 full days there.
I did not buy that much although I found the store of my dreams. I went a bit mental and had to give stuff back in the end haha, after I came to my senses.
I loved going to Gilly Hicks again- there are only a couple stores all over the US and I just love the clothes- (although it is mostly underwear) To top it off, almost every store had reeeally great sales.
LOVE SHOPPING HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

In the end we all went on a couple rollercoasters- a water one with a 40feet drop that made me cry my lungs out and produced the ugliest picture ever, one that went all around the mall, the girls went on a skateboard that went up to the ceiling, ... I slept like a baby on that day.

crazy ass storms

Could not believe the sky this morning- the weather is really weird here sometimes...

and off we go...
