I have been slow posting about girls camp because I was only home for one day and then I packed up and left for Park City with Cade's family for the week. I haven't had a chance to upload my pics to my computer so I can share them but I will add them later. I just wanted to post about a few highlights of girls camp.
*Being with all the leader's (we had the best time together and everyone got along so well)
*We did a "Hold to the Rod" course that was so amazing. I think I got more out of it then the girls did but I hope it made an everlasting impression on them. It was extremely spiritual and I bawled through the whole thing.
*Lake time on the canoe's (although I opted to use a paddle boat instead), I got to watch one of the leaders canoes tip over and not once but twice. It was hilarious.
*I loved the challange course, I watched the girls go through the high wire part and it was so fun to watch them challenge themselves.
*Of course testimony meeting is always a huge highlight, it's always nice and refreshing to bare your testimony but it is the best to hear the girls. They have such sweet spirits and testimonies and I really did learn a lot from them.
*Watching all the girls get soaked by the Bishop and Brother Jones (I sure was glad that I stayed out of it). I have to say the men were the worst with the water fightss. It was against the rules but shhh don't tell anyone.
*We had an activity based on cinnimon rolls (it sounds silly but it was awesome). I don't want to make it too long so I'll leave out the details but it gave the girls a chance to really open up to eachother and get to know some of the girls they didn't know very well.
Overall girls camp was amazing and I just feel blessed to have my calling. I left camp with so much more then I went with. I always feel so good after spending a few days with the girls and spending time getting closer to my Heavenly Father. I'm so thankful for all the help I had from the leaders, they made it all work out perfectly. Thanks for reading (sorry it's so long). I'll post my pics later.

sounds like you were able to do alot of fun things! I swear that I learn more from the young women than they do from me! but it is such a blessing to be a part of it! You honestly have got to be such a great leader for those girls! Your blog is soo cute too, i love the template you have!
Can I just say that I am not impressed with my new calling! They released me from assistant camp director. All I can say is boohoo. We are going to have to get together and do our own girls camp occassionally. I guess I'll only see your husband now. I love ya kelsey. It was great to serve with you. I have never laughed so hard in my life. Thanks for your great example and wisdom. You are awesome.
