I have webbed feet!

YW Wilderness camp was Tuesday thru Friday. I got home yesterday, so I've had a full 24 hours to dry out. We had a great time which included.. walking the plank, girl drama, spoon puppets, flour fights, a birthday barbed wire accident and lots of bathroom incidents with Potty Pants Dancer Nana and Watering Wilson McKenzie. We even read our favorite story... "Pee -ew is that you Bertie?"

Here is a rundown of the week.

Tuesday: Arrival and camp set up. McGuyver came and built us a cabin of rope and tarps (sort of like the 3 little pigs).. We made spoon puppets, played games and did skits. It rained.
Wednesday: Hiked 4 miles. Had a surprise birthday party for Jessie, walked the plank (my personal favorite version of "Tower of Terror"), had a lesson on Individual Worth, had a flour fight, and got caught in the "Wall of Water" It was scary. Oh.. and it rained and hailed. That night we did circle of light and sang our song "Beautiful to Him". The girls did great - there was a great spirit present. Lu and I made a fire with wet wood that was about as warm as a flashlight. Did I mention the rain?
Thursday: Got a shower.. It was so awesome! Had a lesson on the beauty of nature and feeling the spirit while at camp. Played games for hours under our "canopy" because of the rain. Stayed under the canopy for the craft because of the rain. Then had visit from the Bishopric and Stake Presidency. Played more games then had testimony meeting. It stopped raining and the stars came out just long enough for us to have a fire and testimony meeting. However, it was so cold, I thought the girls would turn into life-size popsicles.
Friday: No rain.. We packed and came home.

Overall a good experience, but extremely soggy and cold. It's hard to believe it was a summer camp. The girls never complained though. I think that although they were cold and wet, many of them were able to feel the spirit and enjoyed being away from the world. Enjoy slideshow below.
