Victory Bible Camp Weekend Retreat

Hi! 

Weekend before last we had a retreat with our church. (Yes, it's taken me this long to do a post) We went to Victory Bible Camp which is only an hour away, but up in the mountains. It was gorgeous. Especially the drive there! I have an obsession....with mountains. I. Love. Them. If only pictures did Alaska justice!!! Guys, it's sooooo pretty!!! 

We got there Friday evening and stayed until Sunday evening. 

We had a lot of fun. There was a gigantic tubing hill where you sat in inner tubes and went sliding down the hill in them. Unfortunately I couldn't go. :-(  Mama said she would've let me but she didn't know how I would get back up the hill. So I just watched. It looked like a lot of fun. 

I did get to go on "a one horse open sleigh". ;-) That was fun. My chin got very cold. But...I didn't get a picture. Figures. 

On Saturday night I got very dehydrated. :-/ I don't remember the last time my heart went that fast. 

Mama and Daddy even started to think about just leaving and taking me to the hospital to get an IV. EEK! Thankfully, I threw up and felt so better afterwards. So I hung out with mama and another lady for a bit and then went to bed. I woke up feeling fine and have been fine since. :-) 

Our church would like to do another one during the Summer. I think that would be fun because my injury would be more fully recovered. And supposedly they have horse back rides. :-)

Frozen lake. That's a church lady and her and her husbands dog. :-) 

Ok for some reason the red line is not showing up well. :-/  I hope you can see it alright. Anyways, that line is where the snow mobile went up and then down the hill. And I circled the snow mobile. :-)

The church crew tubing. 

The empty-ish space on the side of the hill is where the snow mobiles went a lot. 

This view was amazing but in the picture the sun is too bright. :-( It's still pretty though! :-)

A few Random Things :-)

First, one night I left Millie outside to go to the bathroom. She came back in with a rock in her mouth. Because you know...she's weird like that. She was trying to bury it, people. Seriously?  Also a couple days after this I gave the rock back to her (I had hidden it in a bathroom drawer) and she loved it. Tryed to bury it again. :-/  My dog is so weird. Then a week later she found another rock but Bub took it away from her so I gave her back the other one but now I think she's forgotten it. Probably smells too much like make-up. (This was a while ago) 

Secondly, I'm a weirdo who finds the need to buy a pair of clear lens glasses. Because I think they're cool. Don't ask. 

They're kinda crooked in the picture. Sorry. 

Also, if you want to be a weirdo like me I got them here: 

Even though they're way too big it's still adorable!!

Thirdly, my dog is super cute. 

Proof: 

I mean seriously? Yes, I understand I show you my dog in like every post. I just can't help it. She's so cute! Oh, remember when I first got her and was gonna name her Ruby? Yeah, I totally can't imagine her as that anymore. Obviously...

Fourthly, as a lot (most of) the snow melted I got some days to play outside!! 

Also, I prettified this picture because without photo apps a picture of blue jeans with a hole in the knee and sneakers on half dead grass honestly isn't that pretty. 

(It has now snowed....unfortuently) 

 

See?

But we've had another warm spell so it's all starting to melt again. :-)

Fifthly, weirdness in our house. ;-P

My dog laying in a tree shaped board game box. 

Mama made Valentines cookies and she had little chocolate hearts that we had to unwrap for her. I made them all in a neat little tower thingy. Most people would just throw them on the plate. Not me. Of course five minutes later mama had to use these and completely ruined my little tower thingy. 

I know, I know, I'm messed up. Just don't ask. Ok? Ok. :-)

* I wrote this post up about two weeks ago and never posted it. :-/ so there'll be a couple other posts coming like right behind this. I tried to put a bunch of stuff in one post when it had happened like weeks ago and it was just super confusing. So yeah. :-) *
