Ward campout

Friday and Saturday me Mike and Brandon went to the ward campout. We went to a new place called Mabbs Ranch. We were the first ones there ... so we thought... is anyone else coming?!? But about an hour later later lots of people started coming and we had 26 families... which is a LOT of prople! It turned out to be a really fun camp. Brandon got the assignment to be the camp guide to help people find camping spots. Of course he didn't mind at all... he got to ride Brother Mabbs quad. Our ward has a tradition of having The Amazing Race on Saturday morning. It is a great well thought out and well planned game and is quite involved. It's family against family and is timed. Mike and I did stations, (we did the race last year and almost didn't survive... The two of us and 4 teenagers... Trent carried me on his back the last stretch... so Mike and I decided we would retire this year especially since the course was bigger and higher!) and so we adopted Brandon out to the Lee family. They ended up getting 3rd place! Great trip... As always... there was good food and a good time for all!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
