Newport Harbor

I got to spend my last week of camp by the beach! It was GREAT!!! I had so much fun with a small team of three counselors and only 8 campers! Newport Harbor Lutheran Church is the church where Pastor Brad now serves and it was so great to spend some time with the Stienstras!!! Their grandkids, Kylie and Noah, were staying with them for the week and attending camp. Johna was there on Sunday and it was so fun to spend time with her! The U.S. Open was going on in Huntington this week so on Monday night we went down to Ruby's on the Pier. It was so fun! And good! (They have gluten free burgers!) We stayed with an adorable and quite amazing couple, Pat and Marge. They are an older couple and it was so fun to listen to them talk about the places they've lived and travelled to. Marge made up breakfast every morning and had stuff for us to make our lunches each day. We all got our own rooms and beds and it was great! We watched the Olympics each night with them and ate the best food! Newport was a great place to end the summer. It was low-key, the kids were good and had fun, and the weather was wonderful! I'm so thankful for the Stienstra family and I'm so glad I got to spend time with them and at their church:)
