WHAT WAS I THINKING?: Girls camp

Girls camp

I love it when I have the opportunity to go to girls camp for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints.  It is such a spiritual high.  They just don't make activities like this for adults.  The spiritual high starts the minute you get there and doesn't end until you leave.  I completely agree with the statement Elder Lee, the missionary helping to run the camp said the opening evening that the only place on the earth more spiritual than the church camp is the temple.

Our girls were awesome, it does my heart good to see the compassion and kindness demonstrated for girls that they barely knew at the time during high adventure.

Our sixth year girls were there for us whenever we needed them, they set a good example for the girls in our tent.

Our 5th year girls were so sweet, not only did they certify the girls, but they came to our tent and shared in our devotionals.

Our hike was beautiful, although the people at the campsite we walked through were probably wondering what the heck was happening.

I couldn't have asked for a better tent mom to work with, what I didn't cover she did and vice versa, we learned several things we want to do in the future (well she wants to do, I will be moving before then).  Our ward is going to be super prepared for next year at Ensign Ranch. 

random quotes of the week "I told her she could bring caskets to girls camp"  "I lost Jesus, oh wait, I found him"  "She is a green so she doesn't care and I am an orange so I lost mine".

I came home exhausted but with a lot of great memories and I really hope I am blessed with the opportunity to be a tent mom again in the future.
