So, if a picture is worth a thousand words, may I give you several?

The month started with the 3 of us girls driving with a friend to Nebraska for our friend Natalie's graduation. That was a lot of fun!
Katrina apparently thinks I need to get married, so she made a significant other for me to bring home. His name is Sebastian Octavius. His work ethic was rather low, as evidenced by his couch potato belly, so Daddy told him No, and he was deflated.

My sheep have been lambing this month. So far we have 12 ewes, and 10 rams! Only 3 have died, and 2 ewes are bottle lambs. I praise God for such a healthy lambing season.
One very sad thing though, is that my bottle lamb from February, Naomi died. :( Daddy said she probably over ate on the fresh grass.
On the 20th we went to Kramer's Auction in Sioux Falls and sold a bunch of rabbits, goats and sheep. That was a rather pathetic day. We got not even half of what we were told to expect for the whethers. And the rabbits weren't even the cardboard of the boxes they were in. So we were quite disappointed.
And the last big harrah of the month was Bible Camp!

Camp is held at the Beautiful Richmond Lake Youth Camp grounds near Aberdeen, SD
All of us kids have gone for many years. This was my second year as a counselor.
Brother Dave Young has been one of the speakers for 3 years now. He's GREAT!

Every evening there is a funny skit before the service. The first one ended with an emergency room visit. "Leonardo" cut his hand on the door window when he was leaving at the end. That was Not part of the script.
And every afternoon we had sports. Kickball, T Rex Tag, Tube Tug, Spokewheel, Big Ball, etc.

At Midnight Madness we had pop drinking races, donut eating races, and of course the scary person under the table race. (I was the person under the table this year, and as such got cool whip thrown at me by another counselor, "Jimmy"........)
And Pastor Neil, the Camp Director is so much fun. We all love him.

After our traditional "Cooks Parade" we had them gather for a picture. They are awesome.
And Anika was one of the Camp Champs this year!

I love Camp.

LOL, time for the monthly post from Cynthia...j/k, I know it's hard to think of things to write, or to find the time sometimes! :) Looks like you had a great month...your camp looks like fun, and I had to laugh at your significant other. ;) I'm inclined to believe that his belly size may be more effected by his lack of legs than his poor work ethic tho. LOL.
Sounds like you had fun this month! Glad ur not marrying that... uh... well, balloon. LOL. (You did know it was a balloon, didn't you?)
=P Hope the next month is as fun as the last!
