    Hi friends! I'm Jennifer, a fifty-something wife and mother of 7 children ages 10 - 26. We are Catholic. We homeschool. We cook from scratch. We farm cranberries. We drink coffee. We advocate for Down syndrome awareness. We are loud. We are chaotic.
    Here I'll share vlogs about all these things, what I'm doing that works and what I've tried but didn't work. I hope to encourage you in your journey through motherhood, homeschooling, learning to cook, and growing in your faith through it all.

    Jennifer, you are an adventurous Mama! I’ve chaperoned a lot of things as a homeschooling mama, but never camp. Such fond memories I have, though, of attending as a kid. Thank you for taking us along! ❤ xo

    Hi Jennifer, everything you do looks fun, and you partake of most outdoor activities, with your kids. Supermum!!! Hi to Maria, and Peter.
    God bless the Brockmans 💐

    God bless you for being an important part of this camp for your children and many others. I'm NOT a camper and in fact have terrible bug phobias to the extent that after just a few hours outdoors among others I subconsciously begin trying to scratch my hide off, no matter how hard I try to control it. In fact, I had to stop your video at the end where the mosquitoes were biting you and then come back to finish the video later. I bet that the loss of your towel and your many other caring actions left an indelible mark on the memories of the other adventure campers. And your own kids will always remember being at this camp with you even if they won't understand how difficult it was until they volunteer to camp with their own children. Thank you for finding the time to video snippets of this experience with the rest of us.

    What a fun video! Thank you for taking us along. It brought back memories of when I went to a camp like that when I was young and although that was a long time ago many things seemed the same. I’m sure Peter and Maria had a wonderful time and really loved having you with them. I’m so glad you enjoyed it, too.

    I loved going to bible camp pre-teen and as a teenager. One of the camps I used to go to was Sugar Creek bible camp in Ferryville WI. Every time camp was done for the year, I promised myself that one day I'd work there as a camp counselor. The packing list brought back memories for me from over 45 years ago. To this day some of my happiest memories of growing up include bible camp. Thank you for sharing your experience. I really enjoyed this video. Your Thrive order looks a lot like mine generally look--we love the chocolate snacks and c. chips.

      Prepping for camp, camp and then unpacking and laundry after took a lot of time away from YouRube. It was worth it, but now I’m trying to get back to it and we’re in the last few weeks before the wedding so lots of dress alterations taking my time.

    You triggered some many WONDERFUL memories! I grew up going to YMCA camps every year, as many sessions as I could. After my babies became old enough, they went to Y camp and I was a Y camp nurse. Then came my grand kids who also went to YMCA summer camp sessions while I was the camp nurse. None of us has gone since the 2020 changes. We do lots of glamping in our RVs now. I hope you all wonderful life long memories like me - summer camps are GREAT!

    All I could think about was the amount of laundry you'd have to do when you got home. Most only have one campers belongings to clean but you had to multiply it by 3. Looks like it was worth it. What a trooper!!

    • @acountrylife
