Young Life Camp 2026

Skylar had the best time at Young Life camp this summer with all of her best friends! Each day was filled with different activities, adventures, and fun themes, with something new and exciting every day and evening. Between all the activities, late nights, lots of laughs, and making memories with her friends, it was truly one of the highlights of her summer. Young Life camp is always the best time of her life, and this year was no different! 💕

This day Skylar and her friends were bears and the boys where hunters.

Christmas in July was one of the evening themes.

The mud games looked to be a big success!

Country night is always a BIG HIT with all the kids.

Sports day.

 

4th of July

The kids had such a great 4th of July this year! They both headed down to the beach for the first part of the day, but it was absolutely slammed. According to Skylar and her friends, it was shoulder-to-shoulder and basically standing room only. They didn’t end up staying too long because the crowds were just so overwhelming, and they quickly got over being there.

Skylar and her friends eventually headed back to Grace’s house, where Jake and I were hanging out with the adults. They swam for a bit before getting ready for the evening festivities, which included a house party with all of their friends.

Madden, meanwhile, spent the afternoon at the beach with his new group of friends that he’s been hanging out with all summer. They were there from about 12:00–6:00 before heading over to a friend’s pool. He ended up having such a fun day that I didn’t even pick him up until after the fireworks! It was definitely a great 4th for both of them, just in very different ways!

Skylar's New Years Eve 2025

 Skylar continues to live her best life and ended the year at a fun New Years Eve party with her closes 50+ friends.  To be young again!!!

Baylor University Visit

Skylar took a quick trip to the Lone Star State of Texas! The girls headed to Waco to visit Grace’s sister at Baylor University. They toured the campus, hung out in her dorm, checked out the famous Magnolia Farms, soaked up the sun at the surf park, went to Skylar’s very first college football game, and ate lots of BBQ (which really means Skylar had bread rolls and maybe a little bit of chicken 😆).

Skylar had an amazing time with her friends, but ultimately decided that Baylor is not the college for her. She said it was a little too slow-paced for what she’s looking for… so I guess we’ll be focusing our search on more party schools 😂!
