Girls Camp

This past week was girls camp. We went to Brighton Meadows. It was a beautiful location, I am thinking a cabin there would be great. (Someday) The girls were great. We have the best YW ever. They all get along, they love each other. It doesn't matter the age, they all hang out together. The theme was Incredi Girl, find the power within. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Cyndie Dobson wrote a beautiful song about the theme. It is called He Strengthens Me. It was a very inspiring camp. I realized that I need to step it up spiritually. The girls and leaders help me to want to strive to be better and try harder. It was a wonderful time with great camp directors. I feel so blessed to have been able to go. We had one night with a lot of thunder and lightening. We stayed in cars for a couple of hours waiting for it to pass. We had a great time telling embarrassing stories. I learned a lot about the girls in my car. I love my calling and I feel so grateful to learn from the wonderful girls I get to serve.

The girls made this lovely style for me. They wanted to do a mohawk but it just didn't work. They covered my hair in hair spray and put clothes pins to hold it in place. They then colored my hair with makers. I was a lovely sight.

We have had a bubble game chewing contest for the past four girls camps. Ingrid was the winner this year. It really is fun and gross all at the same time. A few years ago the girls decided that they wanted to have someone lick the big gross pile of chewed up gum. We put the chewed gum on a plate and then it can be licked. The girls actually hold tryouts for the licking part. They are too crazy.
