Walk the Walk

I was the Camp Director for our ward this year and am so relieved that it is over! I loved the calling but trying to juggle work and planning camp has been a little overwhelming! The theme was "Walk the Walk" so each age group was a different shoe: Adidas (All Day I Dream About the Savior), Nike (Just Do It), Converse (Conversing with the Lord), and ballet flats, stilletos, which I can't remember the thought that went with those...
My hiking group for our 3 mile
Kathy Taylor was the only advisor from our ward that came up (the only one not pregnant or with a newborn at the time!) She got in trouble by the stake because they thought she was a young woman sneaking off during stake time. The stake presidents wife also asked me if I was one of the youth!
Me at the top (middle) of the rock wall they rented
Waterslide!
One of the many cute crafts we made
"Spa Day" Who doesn't love a little pampering in the mountains? We also made homemade chapstick.
Doing the 50th round of "Father Abraham." This song would go through my head all night long!
Human Foosball
We had DELICIOUS food! The stake made all the breakfasts and lunches. We did the dinners with our ward. The last night (bishopric night) we were planning on making chicken and potatoes but ended up having alot of our stuff donated so we had extra money so we surprised the girls with Olive Garden.
Dumping the water cooler on another leader
Doesn't our cabin look cozy!? There were 9 beds on this wall...and turn around and the exact same thing on the other wall. It was basically a shed with 18 shelves crammed in. But when the rainstorm came, we were grateful for it! There were a few spiders and you would think these girls had never seen one before. They were screaming and crying and scared they were on their face. Once one of the leaders got a tick, one of my girls had enough and had a panick attack so I had to take her home half way through the week. All in all, we had a great week!

The mommy and me class is at the Alta Canyon Sports Cener. It's on Highland Drive and about 9500 South.
