Maybe I should re-phrase that...

So this has definitely been the best week so far, but very hectic at times. To start out with, on Monday we had a lost camper drill - only we didn't know it was a drill. So we were all freaked out and everything, searching the water - almost none of us had our suits on either (pretty bad, but accurate if it were really going to happen)! Anyways, we found out it was a drill after we found the "lost camper," but we were all pretty shaken up. Tuesday the inspector came, so all the admin. were running around making sure everything looked good and everything - and we passed inspection! Wednesday it was so cold (45 degrees) that we didn't have to swim at 6am! So instead we had a pilates fest - started out with 2 people and ended up with 5! I also taught sailing during 3rd and 4th period. I got stranded at the end of 3rd period and had the lifeguard in the putt-putt get the girls and take them back while I tried sailing in. I ended up capsizing and swimming the sailboat in. Then 4th period I got stranded again, so this time we put the sail down and had the putt-putt tow us back to the island. But on the bright side, I got my basic badge(r) in sailing! (if you wanna know what's up with the "badger" just ask Anna Costello!) Thursday my cabin, Winnebago, went on an overnight hike! So much fun, the girls had a blast! We brought a dutch oven and made cake! It burnt on the top, bottom, and sides, but the middle was perfect!!! Such a great time! So the title to this blog comes from that cake. I looked at the bottom after we had eaten the middle and it didn't look so burnt, so I tried scraping it off the bottom and said, "maybe I should re-phrase that..." (I guess you probably had to be there) Anyways, on the way out one of the girls twisted her ankle (not badly) but I ended up carrying her backpack all the way out. I had my pack on my back and her back-pack on my front. Friday we had banquet and after that - ice cream!!!! We won cabin clean-up for the week (cause our cabin was the cleanest) so we got an ice cream party! Not a good idea to give 12-year-olds ice cream at 9pm - they were hyper the rest of the night! But it was fun and yummy! Today (Saturday) we cleaned up the island and then came over to the mainland for our day off! Elena, Anna, Liz, Esther, Jacqueline, and I made a cake at Liz's house for Jodi who is turning 20 tomorrow! Happy Birthday, Jodi! Anyways, we suprised her with the cake tonight! We also ate dinner at Miss Kim's house! She made delicious spaghetti, salad, and bread! I burnt my hand on the spaghetti sauce though, it spilled on my hand (I guess I was super excited for a home-cooked meal?). Anyways, it's not awful, but it is burned - hopefully it'll heal quickly! By the way, the meal was delicious, thank you, Miss Kim! So tomorrow we head back to the island after church and get ready for more campers! Session 4 here we come!

Goodnight - Mini-Sand.
