I had one day between Pioneer day and when I headed to Girl's camp! Seriously I sit and wonder what happened to summer and then I remember how busy it was! Our girls headed to camp on Monday but I just couldn't do a whole week again this year and since I wasn't camp director this year it made it a little easier to go half the week! We went to Heber Valley camp this year which the church owns and runs! It is seriously something else! They have a lot of rules and you have to be on a list to get in. We were told we had to be at the gate by 9 or they wouldn't let us in! We made it literally at 9 on the dot!! The cute senior missionaries at the gate were pretty awesome and gave us a good laugh! I rode up with my neighbor Jenny and a friend in another ward Lindsay. I have seriously never laughed so hard in my life in that hour and a half drive!
The girls were so excited to see us when we pulled up! They all rushed the car!
I asked these girls to hold my phone while I went potty and came out to them taking great pictures of themselves!
Somehow I got stuck with the girls that had to do the longest hike! I don't know how or why but it was rough! I have hiked a lot in my life but it was pretty rough terrain!
Lip sync night, seriously the best!
Our girls chose the baby Einstein song, not sure why, but they each brought baby doll hands to use as their own hands. Creepy!! Jenny and I had fun putting them in the girls hoods in front of us while they watched the skits! We are the giggly leaders of the bunch, that's for sure!
Two of my great Miamaids, Donell and Mikayla!
Jenny, Donell, and Mikayla
So the dolls that we had to take apart somehow ended up in the older girls possession and Jenny and I who were in separate cabins each had them hanging from our bunks that night when we went to go to bed! I went with Jenny to hers first and saw it so when I walked in my cabin and all my girls were smiling and giggling at me and one had a camera I knew that it was hanging from mine too! It was actually really creepy looking!
This was the day we walked down to the lake. I only had my phone for it but seriously coming back was straight uphill and when we got to the top I pulled it out and it was like we just climbed 35 flights of stairs! It was seriously crazy!!
I loved this rotation for our workshops, teaching the girls how to properly lead the music and she also showed them where in the hymnbook it shows how to do each measure
The Lake! Jenny and Lindsay took lake pictures but never sent them to me! We paddle boarded and it was hilarious, we were laughing so hard and had the senior missionaries laughing at us!
Left my phone on the table while we were on the lake and came back to these! You'd think I would stop leaving my phone laying around!
Our girls were told they had to sit and put together these lanterns for a couple hours while they prepared for our final night when the stake and bishops were coming. They did the ten virgins theme and it was amazing! We had such a spiritual walk listening to the girls at various stops and the spirit was amazing! The mosquito's were slightly annoying but the girls were so focused! We ended with a dinner of Gyros, cheese and crackers, and someone brought all their bottled Grape juice for over 200 people to drink! It was such an amazing night! We finished with ward testimony meeting! I just love these girls so much!
Our ward has a bra, it is a size 52G!! Jenny put it on and we went to show all the girls that it made its debut the last night! Somehow the girls got a hold of it and it was hung and we found it on the flag pole the next morning!
