Best place on this planet!!!







Jacob has arrived at the Towers! It was a incredible camp and I think he is going to have a total blast. I was able to go in and get his bunk made and assembled. Really neat cabins too! He was at total ease and excited for what the week held. He made it easy to leave him and Lord knows we will be praying for him. Thank you Lord for providing us with such a wonderful place that pours out your love onto our children in a way that is life changing! One of our favorite parts is when you are arrive there are lines of the counselors jumping up and down, yelling and cheering as you drive in your car. It sounds so simple but it is such a gift. We go back in 6 weeks for family camp and we are SO excited after just being there. Jacob is pictured above with his counselor Yea Toast! When you leave you are sent home with a CD that talks about their week, a personalized message from their counselor and a encouraging parenting message from a recent speaker that they had. Soon after we arrived Jacob went on the biggest swing ride of his life! The look on his face confirmed that. I am sure his stomach dropped! The tree house was amazing! I wanted to go on it.

Wow and this is camp! Really a nice place. Tell Jacob it might be a little bit like heaven. At least up there they will be jumping for joy when you arrive also. I am so proud that both my daughters sent their sons to camp and pray this will be a defining moment in time for each of them for many reasons the Lord has planned. Pleased Grandma

I want to go right now! That looks so great! Sounds very nice. I believe your mother is correct- a bit like Heaven.

What a neat memory. Jacob will have such a blast with all of it. You are a wonderful Mom, Jules!
