So I have good news and bad news...I'll give you the good first. The good news is that we made it to Castaway today right on time. The bad news is that it has been such a jam-packed, crazy, AWESOME day that I am way too beat to upload and post pictures right now! I know, the pictures are the good part...I promise double tomorrow:) I just wanted to let you all know that we arrived safe and sound and it has been great so far. The program team is hilarious and the speaker uses many different avenues of communication, so I think that Club is going to be really good for us! A few highlights: We were greeted by about 50 screaming workers all cheering our bus on as we drove up the driveway. That scene never gets old...it's so great to see the looks of pure joy and anticipation as our kids get off the bus and to see all of the work crew just welcoming them with open arms. Every time we come to camp I think to myself, "This is going to be an amazing week," and it always is in a different way.
Right after we got off the bus it was time for free time. Some people ziplined already, conquering some major fears right out of the gates (I won't name names, but Joe Blegen might have come through big and the guys were so proud of him after spending awhile on the top of the zipline:)...I LOVE IT! We had a great dinner, went to club and then had a little Capernaum dance party up on stage. Tovah got to realize her dream of being Hannah Montana, and then it was time to call it a night.
I went to visit the cabins before bed and I am just blown away by all of the amazing kids and leaders that we have on this trip. This week is such a huge privilege and I can't wait to see how it unfolds. Parents...thank you all again so much for trusting us to take your precious kids for a week, it is our absolute joy to be here with them. Have a great day tomorrow...I'll be back with pictures!!
