Halloween

Our Annual cousin's Halloween Birthday Party was another fun event!

Meet Frank:


Spooky Pumpkins


The Kids love the scary apothecary jars



Kaitlyn and Tommy were hilarious as  Santa and the Elf


Kaitlyn had 2 costumes this year because she wanted to be a vampire for school


Mostly because she thinks wearing the teeth are so cool...

Fall is my Favorite

The Kids were off track in October. 

We loaded up the wheelbarrow with some perfect pumpkins


Pumpkin Patch


We love to go to Gardner Village in the Fall to visit all of the witches




We also went to Airborne.  The kids love jumping and jumping


and ended the perfect afternoon with some oatmeal chocolate chip caramel cookies!

Treasure Island Girls Camp

This past week was Girls Camp.  This was my 2nd year as camp director and I really love this calling.  It lets me use my creativity and my love of cooking.


Our theme was "Treasure Island - We Believe, We Seek, We Endure"








This was a Stake camp and we did a survivor twist with lots of challenges for immunity.


We were the "Pearl Tribe".  I sure love these girls...




Our first morning was dry.  

But after that it rained, and rained and 
rained......






Our Shoes were caked in Mud and we could barely walk down the muddy road to the amphitheater


The Girls will never forget the night it started to thunder and Lightning.  We dashed for the Scout Trailer and all 24 of us crammed into it until the lightning stopped.

After, Bishop Clough gave a priesthood prayer on the camp and
we all felt peace.  This experience brought us so close.  






I'm so glad I was able to have these memories with Jenessa


We taught the girls the Hula, made poi balls and maori stick games












They loved the Island Spa!









 The Rain Poncho Hula



I wish I could really play the ukelele



The Girls Enjoyed perfoming for the Bishopric




The Immunity Challenges were always a hit






And We really laughed at The Challenges we gave to our Bishopric




Chris is always a good sport....Good Bishop!


I will admit the Luau was yummy - Cooking is one of my favorite parts of camp!
I made Dutch oven Luau Pork, rice, dutch oven rolls, fruit salad, and Chris brought up rainbow sherbet for dessert 

Kaitlyn was sure excited to come up with Chris and stay overnight!


We ended the incredible week with our testimony meeting
