Girls Camp 2015

 I was lucky enough to be asked to help with camp this year...Kasidee's first year at camp.  Our theme was "Which Way do you Face?"  It was so much fun!
 We were up at the church's camp, Camp Stimson, and it was actually 20-30 degrees cooler than Vegas.  It was heaven!  If the sun was behind the clouds (which it was a lot the week we were there) you needed a sweatshirt.
 Here is cute Kas with her fellow Beehive, Avery.  Kas had such a fun time.  I have such fond memories of girls camp, I'm so happy that Kas will too!
 Some of the leaders and girls chilling at the campsite.
 Me and my fellow camp director.  I had so much fun working with Nancy.  
 My cute girl.
 Here is our group sitting for one of the "ward time" devotionals.  It is amazing to me how the spirit can come so quickly when you are out in nature.  We have a really good group of girls!

 We made wooden arrows, that the girls nailed together and painted.  They had a good time with them.
 It is fun to see how 30 girls can turn the same wood into something totally original and unique.
 Kasidee's favorite past time was the rope bridge.  She shocked me...I didn't think she would like it at all.  Good job Kas!

 The other main craft that we did was leather bracelets.  The girls got to stamp the leather.  An old cowboy in our ward let us borrow all his leather working tools.  It was fun to go to his ranch and talk to him.  He had greasy dirty hands, just like my grandpa's.  I wanted to hug him! 
 I think that everyone enjoyed camp.  I was so blessed to be a part of it!
