Still alive

This summer has been busy and fun. I was able to be Den Leader again for Scout Camp, Micah was in my group again. After Scout Camp I was also able to go to Girls Camp again, at Camp Keola. In between we have been swimming at Nana's house and going to the water park. We got passes this year which we haven't done since I was pregnant with Peyton, so the boys have been very happy. I will hopefully be posting all of our summer events soon. Our laptop is very old and is having some issues. The usb ports are pretty loose and will no longer recognize when my hard drive is plugged in which is where all of our photos are and all of my digital scrapbooking stuff is. I have lots of pictures building up on my camera and I really miss scrapbooking. Tyler said he will try to set up our wireless network again and I can do everything that way. The only drawback there is that it takes so much longer to do anything. Anyway, Tyler implemented a new program for our household, those of us at home during the day anyhow. We, myself and the boys included, are responsible for cleaning one room a day. It's been great. The boys are learning a lot, our house is getting back in shape and I'm not having to do everything! It's just one room a day and I have help, I can handle that! So far we have done the boys bathroom, their bedroom, the living room, and today the kitchen. I plan and hope to keep it up. I miss blogging, kind of ;) I must not lie, it's nice to have a break, but I do want everything recorded! I hope you are all having a great summer.

Phew, deep breath and some girls camp tid bits

Well, between girl's camp, our trip to Utah and a quick Pismo Beach trip, I haven't been home in the last few weeks. The amount of tidying, cleaning, laundry, and catch up on blogging is overwhelming, so today, my first day back at home I didn't do any of that! Instead I played catch up with my friend Yolawnda! I have not read any blogs and I have so much to post that I'm sure it will take tons of time. I hope you are all having as much fun this summer as I am and I'm looking forward to reading about it.

Girls camp was an absolute blast. The girls treated me like I was one of them and I gained a love for each and every one of them. They are all so different and unique and I really appreciated all of them. Our cabin didn't get any flag stealing in, and ours was only stolen once. Below is Maddie and I don't think their flag was ever stolen, she wore it the whole time!

Wendy is the snake lady, or maybe I should say the Snake Wrangler. A few of the girls found some small snakes and toted them around for a few days. I held the one Kaidy found, they were actually very mellow and never bit, whew!

The night hike was fun and the sunset was beautiful. I had to get a picture with Michelle. I went to girls camp with her "Many Moons Ago" but I'm too lazy to find and scan a picture from way back when!This is Miss Kaidy and her snake.
Me and my girls, some from my cabin and some that wish they were!

Ok, not too big on posting bathing suit pictures of me, but here it goes. This was the Polar Bear Plunge. I was the only leader that did it, but really, I was just one of the girls. We got up at 6am and submerged ourselves in this huge tub of ice water while we recited our Young Women's Values. I got recognition for being in the water the longest.
I loved camp and I hope to be able to be a cabin mom again next year!
