Girls Camp! Last Year
Me and Kristy first day at girls camp. You can tell by the way we dont look
horribly ugly haha. It was really hot like this
all week long. The weather man had said that
it was going to be rainy all week, so of course
we prepared for cold, but only one day was
rainy- that was one of the most fun days. The
stake even gave us shirts that we had to wear
once everyday, unfortunately these shirts were
long sleeve and stifling hot as we sat in them.
Diana Castro & Me
My cabin was awesome! The YCLS in it
were Me, Kristy, Starlee Hopkin, and
Mariela Castro. All of our girls were 1st
and 2nd years, which I loved. All of the girls
were so cute, and happy! This was the night
that was way rainy. We were told to stay inside
our cabins and not come out. We all got comfy in
our pjs and then our leaders brought us our
hot apple dutch oven desserts. We then went up
to the upstairs of the cabin where we told all the scary stories we knew. It ended
up being me and kristy telling all the scary stories and the other girls just sat and
screamed even though half the stories weren't even close to being that scary haha.
Me & Jenni Hatch
THis year our camp was united as a stake instead of
by ward. In someways this was good because we got
to know all the other girls our age better, which I liked.
We all got to wear the awesome color of yellow! You know
mom was happy about that!
Kristy & Me
We got to go on the Stake 1st year hike. We got to teach
them tons of first aid stuff: like what to do if you hurt your
ankle, or if you choke, or if you are bleeding severly. We
taught them all how to do this and then we set off for the
hike. Kristy, first, pretended to trip and hurt her ankle, the
acting could have gotten her a gig in hollywood, haha. Some
of the girls fell for her acting, but many didnt. We had the
girls fix her ankle like we had taught earlier. Then a lady got
lost, and we had the girls solve it. The next trick was that Caitlyn was supposed to pretend
to choke, only when she did it, her tootsie roll really got lodged in the back of her throat and
she started choking. All of us just thought she was really good at acting and so we took a step
back to let Corinne, who was supposed to Heimlich her, do her duty. Corinne panicked but was
able to get the candy out of Caitlyns throat. It was way scary. Caitlyn continued on the hike still and a little way on we came upon one of our leaders who was all bloody and the girls were supposed to treat her. She just used ketchup so it did look fake, nonetheless we didn't expect to hear all the 1st years, who had nothing to compare camp to, complain and mumble about having to do it. I told the mumbling girls that they were lucky to get to do it this way then watch us do it all and boringly take an hour to instruct how it is all done properly. There was no more mumbling that I could hear after that. :)
Me & J'nell McBride & Jessica Craig
These girls were so cute on the 1st year hike. They were 2
of the girls who didnt get mad about anything up there. I
also found out that Jessica is a fellow Edward Cullen lover from
the Twilight series, like me, and J'nell is a traitor in liking
Jacob best. Haha. At the end of the week Jessica got the
Mrs. Jessica Cullen award because she constantly talked about him all week.
Jessica Jarvis & Me
Jessica is the most perfect person in the world. She is a special needs girl and is amazing. I'd met her before camp but never talked to her for long. For some reason, she really took a liking to me and Kristy. Every devotional, and time we were at the amphitheater, she was there, by my side. She wasn't a part of our ward, but she always made me promise to save her a seat next to me and of course she wanted Kris there too. She was always so sweet and she kept the girls around us quiet too. Everytime someone would talk during a devotional she would tap them and let them know that they needed to be quiet. She hung out with us up until the last day when the buses departed. She was so cute and so nice!
