Girls Camp. . .

This past couple of days I've been to Girl's Camp. The chanting, the skits, trying to find girls after lights out, the zip line, the rain, the scorching days. . .we did it all. We left bright & early monday to head up to Heber to Aspen lakes for our 2 1/2 days of camp. There was a lake for the girls to play in, with canoes, a zip line, & paddle boat. They all loved the water. They even talked some of the leaders into going on the zip line. I'm proud to say that yes I did it. I have to admit though, the only reason I did is because after climbing up the ladder for our zip line duty i was so not climbing back down! It was pretty fun even though the moss clung to me as I got out of the water. YUCK!!! That night we treated our girls to pedicures & manicures. They got to soak, lotion, & polish. It was fun to see them chatting & relaxing & enjoying being together. The next day I got to test out my dutch oven "skills". The bishopric came up & were treated to a delicious meal prepared by Laurie(my life saver at camp. She took care of all the food and all that comes with it. Thanks Laurie you are the best.) I made the dessert & I have to say it was tasty. By the time we got everything cleaned up & were ready for bed, we felt like we had been there for ten days instead of 2. We didn't get a whole lot of sleep that night...thanks to the lightning pouring rain. I guess it wouldn't be girls camp if it didn't rain.

I have to give props to the leaders that went with me. I couldn't have done it without their help.
