Girl's Camp

I was really excited to have the opportunity to go to Girl's Camp this year. I love my calling as the Beehive Teacher and was excited to get some quality fun time with the girls. The only night I really 'needed' to be there was on Tuesday the 24th but due to some complications at home and with it being a holiday I didn't go up until Thursday night.

I drove up with Cammie, the Young Women's President and Candi, the secretary. We drove up Provo Canyon and into Heber and the scenery was beautiful and it was fun to get to know those two a little more.
Me and Cammie!

I sure got the stink eye when I first pulled out my camera but it didn't last long. No lack of personality here!
There were no campfires allowed this year so the girls made lanterns using glow in the dark stickers and paint. They had small lights (with a switch) inside at night. They were darling.
Delicious scones for dinner. Most of the girls had Navajo Tacos but I drenched mine in powdered sugar and honey!
I can't even remember the name of this game but I was sure having fun taking pictures. Whoever was in the middle had to dance and jump and do all sorts of commands given in the song.
And I love the look on my face (it's so me and I'm so lame) when one of the Laurel's took my camera (pried it from my fingers) and sent me to the middle. Can you tell I'm excited?? I had no idea she was snapping pictures. My kind of girl...
I did my best!
Delicious watermelon! That went nicely with my sugar scone.
Laurels in one of their many poses.
More laurels.
Young women leaders and camp counselors. Emily (2nd counselor), Candi (secretary), me (Beehive teacher), Eliza (Camp counselor), Ashley (Camp counselor), Cammie (YW President).
Our Bishopbric is awesome. Dave Stone, 2nd counselor. Dustin Bassett, Bishop. Steve Elmont, 1st counselor.
The girls were having so much fun taking pictures. Sad to say though I didn't get my yummy crunch bar because I was too busy taking pictures. Boo boo
Beehives with their Momma Bear!
Seriously goofy. These girls are so much fun!
More goof, more fun...
Mia Maids were excited to try out different poses. So here is their star. Pretty cool.
And their feet...
And the tree shot...
And Charlie's Angels. They didn't really know who Charlie's Angels were. hehe


I had a really great time with the girls and the leaders. I loved listening to testimonies and I loved watching the girls support each other, goof around with each other and comfort each other throughout the night. Some girls were homesick, some were physically sick, some were tired, but they were all so sweet and caring. It was fun to take pictures and see their personalities shine through. Cute bunch of girls!
