Day 1 - Monday, June 27th
We arrived at camp at 9:30 am to set up & get ready for the girls to arrive.
Our girls arrived at 2 pm. After meeting the girls & unpacking in the cabin, we went for a tour of Camp Angelos.
The theme at camp this year: Princesses
"Destiny to Shine"
Each cabin was named after a Disney Princess.
Always nice to be reminded of our royal birthright.

Day 3 - Wednesday, June 29th - Yes, we were shooting with Panda Bear bows...but I shot my bulls eye the day before (proof on the right). Special thanks to Ray Evans for teaching us archery.
Hanging out during "free time."
Day 4 - Thursday, June 30th
My crazy girls jumping in the river for the "Polar Bear" dip at 8 am.
I had a great week at camp with old & new friends. I loved being a Mom to my cabin.
It's nice to take a break from the world for a week and be reminded of what really matters in this life. Between our daily scripture reading, Destiny classes, daily devotionals & the fireside on the last night of camp, the Spirit definitely manifested itself unto me. I'm so blessed to have been able to share in this experience.
A special Thank You to my Mom for watching my boys all week while I attended camp.
Thank You to all the Leaders, Staff & Youth Camp Presidency for making this year so memorable!
