Reese and Quincy spent Tuesday-Thursday at Stake Young Women’s Camp. The theme was Stand Up, Speak Out, Be Different. The girls camped by age, this year, which was wonderful because they had opportunities to build relationships with their peers in the stake. The girls also went to a new location, which had “cabins”, electricity, and a lodge space for indoor dining and activities during the super hot hours and rainy hours. I was fortunate to drive up a van load of these bright beauties and help settle them in. Reese’s year theme was Spider-[wo]man and Quincy’s year was Wonder Woman. Due to the age change this year, there were 35 first year girls at camp! Quincy settled right in next to pals Annalisa G, Baylee G, and Avery D and Sarah H.
I really missed my besties while they were gone. The house was not the same without my big girls, but I know they were building wonderful memories. I loved girls camp more than anything as a youth. I wish I could have with them been up at camp all week witnessing their relationships and testimonies grow stronger. I’m grateful for friends who texted me pics and updates on my girls all week. And for friends who kept them well stuffed with yummy things to eat. That’s a Mother’s Love!
Both girls came home filthy and in cute girls camp-y French braids, and headed straight to the kitchen for debriefing over soup and sandwiches, and now both are sound asleep in the basement at 2pm. Looks like they had a perfect time! Thanks, Rogers Stake Youth Leaders for a great week for my daughters!
