J-O-Y - Coming Home From Summer Camp

When we arrived at Camp CILCA yesterday to pick up Preston & Shaling from summer camp, they both were enjoying lunch with their camp friends. Preston moved and joined us while we ate lunch, but Shaling took advantage of her last few minutes with her new friends. Shaling also informed us that she was not coming home. She was going to "no go home; stay here; fun; lotsa lotsa walking".

After lunch, we helped the kids load up their stuff in the car and then we went to the chapel for the closing ceremony. Each of the staff members introduced themselves, then the kids sang a couple of songs. One of the songs, "J-O-Y", is sung every year and I have a video of Preston singing it last year. We also sing it at Vacation Bible School each summer. It's pretty catchy and the kids' enthusiasm shines through. The video below includes Preston & Shaling, singing "J-O-Y" with their camp friends.
