Girls Camp!

Girls camp was super fun! I only went up for one night with my mom but it was fun. When we got there we had an obstacle course and it was intense! We had to army crawl through mud and we had to climb over walls and do all sorts of stuff! It was a blast, except I only brought one pair of pants and they were very dirty after having to do the obstacle couse 6 times!
That night the Bishop made us dinner and it was delicious! He had chicken wrapped in bacon and potatoes, and salad, and marble cake! It was all made in dutch ovens so it was that much more amazing!
Then we had our testimony meeting which was cool. The bishopric and leaders gave us envelopes with stuff inside and after we bore our testimonies we got to pore the contents into the fire. It turned the flames blue! It was really neat. The bishop gave all of the leaders and YW personalized walking sticks. They are really cool and it was a great gift!

The next morning we all ate breakfast and then went to the flag ceremony with the stake. Our ward did our ward cheer and it was really cool! It goes like this:

We like mormon boys and we cannot lie
You other sisters cant deny
When a boy walks in with his scriptures and his case
and a smile upon his face you get
a date!
A celestial mate but wait!
He's going on a mission
Leavin you wishin,
that you had a man!
Somebody to hold your hand!
Deacons, WHAT?!
Teacher, NO!!!
We don't like your features!
Your brothers are hot and you are not
So give us a righteous priest!!
*grunt*

It was pretty much the greatest cheer/rap I have ever done! Then we packed up all of our stuff and left before all of the crazy rain came! Oh! We also made really cool necklaces out of paper, scrabble letters squares, string, and modgepodge??? Spell check! It was really fun being there with Morgan, McKenna, and my mom. The theme for our ward was superheroes so everybody got really cool capes! It was my last year at camp and it was super fun! :D

The Cove

My mom has been bugging me non stop about updating my blog which is a tad hypocrytical because she hasn't updated her's in at least a year! So the latest with me is pretty much....I work and I moved out of the house! Yes, everything is fine! Whenever I tell people I moved out they all freak out and ask if everything is okay. So just know that everything is okay. I am living ten minutes away from my house in a house with my two best friends and one of their aunts lives upstairs. So far everything is pretty bueno! We cleaned the entire basement out and repainted everything. We call the house "THE COVE" because the accent wall in mine and Kylie's room is called Pirates cove. Besides, every house needs to be named right?! Living on my own isn't really scary or anything. Its kinda nice. No offense to my mom! I am just independant okay! Haha sometimes I might think what am I getting myself into but I will learn alot and have fun at the same time!

School starts in August and I am super excited. Kristie and Erin also move up which will be fun! I'm not taking a lot of classes because I need to work but I am taking some! Mostly all the boring ones though.

That is pretty much everything.......I graduated! In case I forgot to blog about that. It's a pretty big deal apparetnly. :)

Until next time!
