I got the awesome opportunity to be a chaperone at the church's Girls Camp this past week. It was AWESOME. It was the perfect week. Perfect girls, perfect weather, perfect camp- it was an amazing week. I took it all in and just had a great time. Girls Camp is a yearly camp for church. All young women aged girls can go (ages 12-18.) We have fun time, we have spiritual time, we have a blast. It's not for the weary though! I counted it up and got around 15 hours of sleep TOTAL for the week. And felt fine!.... until I got home! But it was SO much fun. I wanted to remember these moments!
Upon arrival all the girls claimed their beds and dug into their snacks!

The girls sand "A Child's Prayer".... it was beautiful!
Millie and Zoe Solomon were officially adopted the day before camp. They have been fostered for several years and we couldn't be more excited that the adoption finally went through. So we had a "We are Glow-ing with Excitement" party for them complete with glowsticks, disco ball and lots of laughter.
We go each year to a place called Latimer Reservation. It's just gorgeous!

Millie Solomon- my new best friend. I love this girl!!
Liz Elam and Kate Forrester with me and Amy
Each year they have a sunrise hike. The girls get up at 4:30am and walk to this beautiful overlook and wait for the sun to come up. It's so gorgeous!
Emery Welsh and Paige Jones- I started calling them the Bobsey Twins.
Amy with Kirsten Pike and AnnaBelle Elam

I brought Grandma's Daisy to wake the girls up each morning. It was a quite a hit! And I loved that a piece of Grandma with me.
Dana Moser, Millie Solomon, and Maylee Robbins
We went on this mountain bike ride. It was.... extreme to say the least. We got a little lost and ended up going up hill, down hill, over trees, under branches.... it was insane. The ride didn't phase Millie as she was leading the pack and hardly got off her bike. She was a trooper! Maylee was too. Oh the young! I was laughing with Millie about how fast she was. She said "Well, it's probably because I'm young and you're just a little bit old." hahahahaha. She is so funny!
These cute girls wrote a camp song. They did an amazing job!
Me with the other 3 adult chaperones from our ward- Cecily Dossett, Jessie Hill and Dana Moser. Awesome ladies and I had so much fun with them.
Alicia Solomon and Sydney Burk
All of us with Bishop Barry and his wife, Amy, on the last night after the Bishop Devotional. It was a beautiful and perfect week! Isn't this picture gorgeous?!?
