Girls Camp!

I just got back on Friday from Girls Camp at Heber Valley Camp.  It was so fun!  Sadly, my camera ran out of batteries towards the beginning of the trip and I was so caught up in camp spirit that I neglected to replace them.  Speaking of camp spirit however.... I won the Camp Spirit award!!  I was also given the master poetess award as I spent the whole week speaking in rhyme.  Since I am a fourth year, I was able to be a tent (cabin this year) leader and I got a camp name!  The name we gave our cabin was Blue Fringe (thanks dad!).  It turned out really cute and everyone was proud to be a fringe!  My camp name was Bumble Bee because I "spread the nectar of love and joy".   I'm kind of upset to be back in the real world.  My family and I went back up to Heber Valley Camp the next day for our family reunion and I was very disappointed to learn that they don't sing camp songs....  Anyway, I'm happy my lazy summer can finally begin!

Happy 4th!

Happy fourth of July everyone!  It has been a great weekend!  It all started with my breakfast from heaven... a red white and blue yogurt parfait!  (with a fresh layer of cute little strawberries from the garden).  

Then Kennedi came home!  She has been in Idaho for a week and we were all excited to see her.  Grama, cousin Jake, and cousin Shaylee drove her home.  Shaylee stayed at our house and will be here till wednesday!

A glimpse to the 2nd coming?...

That night i ditched my family (i still feel bad for that!) and went to watch the Sandy City Fireworks with my friends.  It was a fun night!

Our Sunday 4th festivities included watching Dad's favorite... A More Perfect Union.  I wish I knew if it was good or not!  I fell asleep in the first five minutes :)

Overall, it's been a great Independence Day celebration!  And it's not over yet!  Tomorrow we will be going boating and I can't wait!  Let's all pray for good weather!

Oh ya, we also have a bird staying with us for the rest of the summer!  Collette's class pet, Bubbles, has made her way into our home.  We all like her a lot..... sort of.

Her latest trick is letting herself out of the cage and flying straight to Dad's shoulder.  Dad couldn't be more pleased.  :)  He even took Bubbles to the bathroom with him.  As Collette put it.. "Man's best friend!

Father's Day!

Happy Late Father's Day!  I'm a little slow at posting but here is a belated Father's Day Post!

We made a yummy breakfast for dad.  Luckily that was before Kelsey was there.  She had a slight accident with the eggs...

It was a great day full of presents and fun!  Thanks for all you do Dad!
