Girls camp was this past week and what a beautiful experience. We had so much fun. Our Stake (not LDS? a stake is a group of wards which are groups of people that meet together at the same time for church that live in the same general area) was very inspired this year to have girls camp just a little different.
Normally each Ward camps together, but we still get together with the others Young Women in our Stake during our camp for devotionals and such.
This year they had the girls camp in Years (1st year,2nd etc....) There were alot that were not so happy about this situation....I could see the purpose and was excited!
To throw another curve in it, just because you were a leader didn't mean that you would be a Cabin Mom....WHAT yeah all of us who love our Y.W. were a little sad. But those of us who could see what could happen from this were again excited.
I was one lucky Leader who was able to go YAY!!!! Double YAY. This was my first experience as a Leader at camp and I was stoked! (does that statement date me?)
So to start out we ended up with the most amazing girls I was so excited we had a group of 10 that were first years most were pretty sporty girls and just really down to earth it was so fun! They loved to prank and laugh and laugh and talk and talk and did I mention prank yes mostly us leaders!
It was so much fun I only knew 3 of the ten before we went and adopted all ten when we left :)
