Girls Camp

A couple of weeks ago I went to my first year at girls camp. The theme this year for the stake was testimony. The theme for our ward was BOOT CAMP. BOOT stands for "Build on our testimonys." We got to print our names on dog tags and everyday we would get a little item to put on our necklaces.
We did lots of activities some of them were making those tool flowers, charms for our necklaces, making testimony blocks (we would write our testimonies on them and we would make a testimony wall with all of them). We played lots of games, we went tubing (my favorite) on the Ogden river, we also went canoing on a little lake and we played a huge game of Life with our stake. The wards had their own teams and we tried to kill Goliath with slingshots and water balloons. We also played bowling (the pins were bad things in life and we tried to knock them down) and made boats as if being Noah. On the first night my friends and I stayed up probably until 2:00 in the morning. The rest of the nights we stayed up till 12:00 pm and woke up at 7:00 am. We had delicious meals and loved helping making them. We had lots of smore's and TONS of candy. It was so much fun being around all my new friends and old.
My first year at Girls Camp and it was a BLAST!!!

The view on our 5 mile hike.

Yea that is a 3 inch cockroach. It was in one of the tents and the worst part was it was on someones leg. It flew in the tent and then flew out.

One of my leaders french braided everyones hair. I loved having my hair our of my face.

All of my friends.

Caleb's Cabbage

Caleb started a cabbage plant last spring at school. We finally harvested his HUGE cabbage head. So far we've used it for fish tacos, egg rolls, and Coleslaw and still have some left!
