GALS CAMP!!!!

a few days ago i got back from girls camp. it was so much fun and spiritual.
this was in the parking lot waiting to leave.

karaoke!
i let karly sleep in my bunk because she wasnt feeling good and the ycl cabin is really crowded. so i slept with andie in her bed the first night. the next night i was going to sleep in taunas bunk with her until we hung up these glowsticks and moths swarmed, so we decided to sleep on the floor. the last night me and lindsay slept in my bunk. every night i stayed up until at least two and every night me, andie and tuana were the last one to go to bed (usually like and hour or two after everyone else.) everyone had to get up at 730 every morning so i didnt get much sleep, but it was worth it.
about a minute after i took this picture like 5 moths landed on the glowsticks.

below is tauna and gillian!

me and tauna, gillians fingers are in it too.

all of the second years went on a hike and at the the end was alittle lake to go canoeing and kayaking. me and gillian went kayaking together. it was so much fun, but we kept on getting wet from the paddles.
on the last day i got to go rock climbing and do the zipline. the rock climbing was hard for me (even though i am usually really good at rock climbing, you should of seen me in AZ) because i did a wall that slants, so you need upper arm strength. i dont have that much because of my shoulder. i still made it to the top though.


next i did the zip line. above i am getting all of the gear on. below im climbing up th pole to get to the top of the zipline.


i was so nervous my first time because you have to just jump off the platform and it was so high. i didnt even think about it. the second time i went i wasnt scared at all. it was really fun.
all my friends went on the zipline too. below is tauna making a wierd face. it made me laugh so hard.

we had to wait in line forever so we took lots of pictures. this is sierra and her friend analyse (my friend too) and andie.
i love this picture!i got a lot of notes at camp. it was really fun going through them all and reading them.
my favorite part of camp was the last night when we had testimony meeting.that was a moment i will never forget. before the ward testiomony meeting all the girls got letters from their dad. my dads made me cry. i dont really know why. i guess i just missed him. during the meeting everyone in the whole room was crying including me. at least i didnt cry during my testimony i just cryed before and after. it was a really good experience for me.
my other favorite part of girls camp was coming home. it was nice to see seth,my mom, and dad again. i slept the whole way from camp, then took several naps at home. the next morning i slept i til 1100. a new personal record! i guess i caught up on all the sleep i missed out on.
wow this is a long post. its been like an hour since i started it. but girls camp was worth it. i cant wait for it next year!

  3. What a wonderful week you had. I'm glad you had such a wonderful time--lots of fun but spiritual moments as well. I have always wanted to go on a zipline. Maybe someday. See you soon.
