Monday (8-18) was the official kick-off to Granana Camp. Each year my mom likes to get all the grandkids together for several days and do sort of a camp, modeled much like Girls' Camp. We planned it out months in advance, but of course nothing went as planned.
On Monday we were supposed to do an over night camp out at a local state park, but we woke up early that morning to RAIN!!! August is supposed to be the driest month of the year in that part of Texas, but the good Lord saw fit to answer prayers for rain during the week that Granana Camp was supposed to take place. So the over nighter got cancelled, so instead we had a mini camp in the living room that night. We gave the kids their flash lights and the Gov told a spooky story and we had a little devotional around our mock camp fire.
We all tried so hard to make the most of it and not let our disappointment get the best of us. John Lennon once said "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans" and truer words have never been spoken!
