Girl's Camp!
Girl's Camp is always so much fun. I love it!
This is a group photo of our ward. The Edgemont 4th Ward. We had 37 girls and 10 leaders attend. We had by far the largest ward. It is the old saying the more the merrier.
This is my niece Lindsey Conger doing the Stump walk in the Confidence Course. It was great to be with both my niece and my sister Ali.
Probably my favorite part of girl's camp is Solo Time. I love that we can get away from our crazy busy life and just be out in the mountains. There isn't anything we have to rush for and have time to ponder, pray and really focus on setting goals and thinking about who we are and what changes in our lives we need to become more like our Savior.

I love this picture of the young women. This is me with a group of YCL's that helped plan camp this year. We had a great camp because we had great YCL's. I truly believe they make all the difference. They set the mood and the tone for the whole camp. We had a couple of YCL's not on this hike but this is a good chunk of them. Tara's Mom is one of my camp leaders that made me love camp which was neat to in turn be a leader to her daughter.

This is all the girl's on the first hike with me. We did my favorite hike up at MIA Shalom. We hiked to Memory Grove and then along the North Rim back to camp. It is absolutely incredible.

Celebrating Independance Day with the Family!
After the parade we went over to Nana and Papa's house to spend the day with Aunt Shirley's family. Jordan definately won the award for the most spirited this year. In this picture she had already taken off most of her festive outfit, but she rocked! The boys (plus Jordan) got into a heated basketball game in the pool. They had bruises and scratches all over. Way to go Jordan for representing the girls. The cousins all had a great time pushing, hitting and almost drowning each other. What a great way to spend the holiday.
After swimming almost everyone went to enjoy Unlce Brad's rockets. They went over to Vintage Park and some of us stayed at the house. One of the rockets made it all the way back into our yard. It was amazing how high the rockets went. This was difinately a highlight of the day. I think we wore Grandpa out as you can tell by the picture.
My sister in-law Ginger invited me at the last minute to the "Stadium of Fire". I was so glad I went. Here are a few pictures of the Jonas Brother's, but my favorite part was that they retired the huge flag that has been used for the last 25 years in the show. I am sure the lady who has put so many years of blood, sweat and teers into maintaining that flag was in tears. It was neat to be a part of that.
This is a picture of them carrying the flag to be retired. They burned it in a big caldron. It was so cool to watch and feel the spirit there in the BYU stadium.
This is my boys back watching fireworks from outside the stadium. They were very thankful I left them and did not make them go into the stadium. They played games with their cousins. They had all the boy cousins from the Jensen side of the family over. The 4th of July was wonderful in almost everyway. The only problem is we missed Stephanie. On the way home from the parade that morning we all talked about how much we missed her. Spending the holiday with her would have made it even better.
