Camp

I have been gone to girls camp all week and at the moment I am so happy to be clean and to have no dirt around! I am so tired and my feet have never hurt his bad from walking all over but I also have wonderful memories of camp. I think I love girls camp because you have so many laughs and then there are so many spiritual moments. Being in nature without cell phones and the ipods away from the world makes me feel closer to my Heavenly Father. It was so great to see the girls come lift each other up and work hard around the camp. My most memorable thing about this year's camp was the Faith Walk. They had all the wards walk around and stop at different stations. There a girl would talk about the things it takes to become a better young woman. Then they would sing or play an instrument of a hymn. The very end we all came together in a great big cirlce and lit candles and sang songs. The spirit was so strong! A few other memories: flashlight wars, soooo much toilet paper and many runs into town for more rolls, Hey! Burrito!, needing the flashlight to talk, Biffy queen and the golden plunger, scent of the week. Thanks to all those who made this week FABULOUS!!

I loved and hated girls camp all at the same time. It looks like you had a good time, but its always nice be home after being in the woods for a week, heck its good to be home after one night camping for me.....so I'm not one to talk.
I'm trying to get as much time off as I can for when your fam comes to boise, I called dave to check the dates, so hopefully I won't miss out on too much when you are here! Whahoo, I have something to look forward to in the next couple weeks....I need my Cindy!
But I wish you and stacey were coming with me and my fam to lagoon this weekend, we are going with justins fam, then bounce back on monday...it should be fun...hopefully. :)
