On July 9, the Horne family went to Family Camp, taking the Farr kids with them. Joe was put with two ten year-olds in a cabin but halfway through, one of them left to stay in a different cabin. Joe made the mistake of using his special technique on four-square which meant that after he had been in the king's position for 15 minutes, any other time he tried to play, he was the main target to get out. Joe's cabin allied with the smaller boys cabin for a water balloon assault on the 15-18 year old cabin.
We surrounded their door, a good ten of us, all bearing water balloons. Before they knew what was up, Michael and Scott came out and got soaked, which was an act Joe was proud to be a part of. The older cabin threw cold water and water balloons out the window, while we taunted them and called them sorry shots. They mouthed off right back when they opened the window. Bad mistake. I took a toad and threw into Scott's gaping mouth. It finally came time to go to the gym and so Brother Brian, the smaller kids counseler, hid a big balloon in his pocket, and when Michael walked up to the gym, SPLASH!!! He got soaked, not to mention the cup of water that followed the balloon. We all had a great time and can't wait for next year.

I don't like the sound of "blog". It sounds strange for a guy to have a blog, so I prefer to call this my online newspaper. Any way you look at it, this is a record of the lives of the Hornes, from a completely biased, sarcastic perspective. What you read here is nearly always one-sided and so use your best judgement on what things are really like at the Horne house. Thanks for reading.
