The Face of Camp Grace

Well as it turns out, I decided (very last minute because I'm spontaneous like that) to go to the beach with my in-laws for the first half of the week this week. I know, I know, I told y'all I was leaving for camp today. And I fully intended to do that. Until, that is, Adam explained just how much manual labor there is left to do during "training week" at camp. I am far too lazy delicate to do manual labor. So I will head up to camp on Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully, all that will remain is actual counselor training and planning, as opposed to work that involves physical exertion of any sort.

I am, however, very excited for the kiddos to start arriving at camp(which will be bright and early really late next Monday morning). So to hold me over until that time, I thought I'd enter one of my favorite faces from last year's campers in this week's I Heart Faces contest. (Sorry for my lack of coherent sentences today. And I dont want to hear one word about that being usual around here.)
Couldn't you just die? She's so beautiful and happy. And isn't camp clearly so much FUN?!

Check out all the talented photography over at I Heart Faces this week. I've said it once, and I'll say it again. You will NOT be disappointed.

  5. Camp does look fun. Great capture. I'm sending my oldest to Christian Camp this year. This will be her first time. I think I am more nervous than her but I am so thankful for these types of ministries. May God be glorified in all you are doing for Him.

  11. Becca, I think this is my favorite picture of yours! The way you captured her joy, the wildness of the water and her beauty...it deserves to be blown up, framed and hung somewhere at camp. Love it!

    And I concur, you are far too delicate to handle all that manual labor. Plus, you'd risk the comment, "You have a baby....in a construction site!"

  31. What a beautiful face that is! I love the energy and vibrancy of personality that comes through in this shot. :)

    I'm with you thought...I would have totally chosen the beach over the manual labor choice.

    Have a fun week!
