"The Final Judgment is not just an evaluation of a sum total of good and evil acts--what we have done. It is an acknowledgement of the final effect of our acts and thoughts-- what we have become." - Elder Dallin H. Oaks

Mia Shalom 2010

We got back from Girls Camp today. I had such a FABULOUS time! The young women in our ward are so amazing, and they are a blast to be around!A couple of fun experiences:
-There was a family of deer sleeping under my cabin-Rayshaun used a painted paper plate, leggings, shorts, and an emergency blanket, to create a Nacho Libre costume. Then we ratted Rachel Johnson's hair to make her Esqueleto. We then used that in our cheer
-Almost got struck by lightning during singing in the trees
-I fell while carrying a cooler with Susie
-We found bear claw markings on trees, while on the hike
-We found cement step things and did the Karate Kid pose on them-We found a dead rat in one of our trash cans when we got up to camp
-Went canoeing-We found spaces leading from the top to the bottom floor of one of the cabins, and decided to play basketball/dodgeball/baseball/soccer with them and a bag of candy.
-We sang songs-We built a puzzle to symbolize our unity-Rayshaun and I skipped up and down the hill
-We played Psychiatrist
-We got rained on everyday
-Had an AMAZING testimony meeting, and got to hang out with our bishopric which is always a blast
Camp was seriously amazing! We have such an awesome ward and I loved getting to know everyone even better! I hope your week was even a fraction of the awesomeness that mine was!
