To Work at a Camp, You Must Be Random

First off, I don't think I could ever call myself a "creative" person. Other people may sometimes say that, but I just don't think that word fits me.

Yesterday we went to see The Three Musketeers, and on the way home Erin needed to stop at Wal-Mart, so I bought a watermelon.

Today, after our staff meeting, we played some playground-style games. LAME! Good thing we're working on a book of not-so-lame games that can be used this summer. I'm actually kind of excited to get this done because it means we can play some of the games to make sure they'll work for us. I'm already playing some of the games with the student ministry group, but I think playing against my coworkers will be even more fun.

So back to that watermelon...tonight after a long afternoon of cleaning and working on our book that we title "The Game" (BTW I lost the game), I had some dinner and a lot of oranges. I think the oranges are going to become a new joke around here. Anyway, to continue my fruity night, I pulled out that watermelon that I bought yesterday and started carving a foot in it. It wasn't nearly as easy as a pumpkin, and even with a towel on my lap, I got VERY wet, but I ended up with this:

To make this event even more memorable, I decided to break up some graham crackers,  top with chocolate chips, and roast mini marshmallows INSIDE the watermelon to make some delicious little s'mores!

Stay tuned for other acts of randomosity!
