I can be western

Young Life just left this morning from camp. it was bittersweet to see all the staff leave who we have been working with the past month or so. We had a combined worship night last night and got a chance to toast (with sparkling apple cider of course) all the joys and ways we saw God's hand in the past month of camp.
This past friday was our last hoedown with the kids. We all get a chance to dress up in western gear and have some good bbq. A few weeks ago I taught a bunch of the leaders the cotton eyed joe and I have learned a few line dances myself. This week a few of the campers requested the song Hoedown Throwdown by Miley Cyrus from the Hannah Montana movie. And this song comes with some dance moves...which I happen to know. So one of the wranglers and myself started to do the dance to the side and then they told us to go on the basketball court in front of all the kids. So that is what we did. I felt a bit like Miley in the movie and it was really fun. They played it again later and I got the chance to teach a bunch of the campers the dance. So successful night! And it proves I have some southern girl still in me from when I lived in South Carolina the first 5 years of my life :)
