We had a really fun trip in June with a stop to see our dear friends, The Sparks, at Kanakuk!!! They are the type of friends that we only see once a year, but we just pick right back up where we left off. Tim and Collin were in the same engineering program at TCU and have been great friends for a long time. He and Rachel are so much fun and are now the directors at K-Kountry. We got the grand tour and got to use all of their fun facilities. We loved getting to see what they do and how they spend their summers. It also brought Tim and I back to our camp days where we first met. I can't explain it, but there is just something amazing about camp...learning to serve others, sitting under great teaching, having the time of your life, doing pranks without getting caught, meeting friends you will have for a lifetime ...it's the best!
This was Tim and the boys at Kanakuk's family camp, which is like a mini resort for families to come. It was awesome and the pool was SUPER FUN!
