Thanks Ellen for all of your hard work.

We went to girls camp June 23rd-26th. We had an amazing time with our girls, they were wonderful to be with and we all had a great time together. The theme for camp was Super Hero's and we chose Wonder Woman. Sister Cheri Zander made us all kinds of cool costume items. We had blue boxer shorts with white stars, red Wonder Woman T-Shirts, crowns, wrist bands, belt and lassos of truth. We had the best costumes by far!! we had to write a song for our theme and Emily and Madi took the Wonder Woman theme and changed the words, it was great!

We have amazing young women and a wonderful camp director, Ellen Bleazard who makes camp a great place and we really want to thank her for all of her hard work. I have some many pictures that I can't post them all, but here are a few of the ones I took.

June 12-13, 2009

Youth Conference was held at Snow College this year. When we arrived we ate lunch and played some games. Then we got checked into our luxurious accommodations (NOT) in the dorms. Then we headed over to the Snow Follies games (water games). The kids had lots of fun at the games. After the games we went back and changed and went to a fireside with Travis Osmond (Merl's' Son). He talked to us about how music affects us for the good and bad, he was a great speaker. After the fireside we went to dinner and then a dance. Some danced and some didn't, but I think they all had fun. The next morning we got up and had breakfast and then headed up to the ropes course. I think this was the highlight of the conference. They all had a great time trying the different courses and cheering everyone on. After the ropes course we went into Manti and had lunch just below the temple. The stake provided a yummy dutch oven chicken lunch and then we had a fireside. Everyone that bore their testimonies talked about the ropes courses and what they had learned. After the testimony meeting we all packed up and went home. It was a great weekend!

For our joint activity with the YW &YM they went ice blocking. The kids had a lot of fun riding their blocks of ice down the hill and wiping out. Some tried to have races and others were just happy to make it to the bottom of the hill still riding their block of ice. We had donuts and punch for a treat at the end!
