The other day for FHE we decided to finger paint a mural for our singles ward to help with unifying the ward. So I was in charge of getting the butcher paper for us to paint on. While I was sitting at the kitchen counter doodling on a piece of butcher paper I was reminded of the times that we had butcher paper as our table cloths at girls camp. For those who were in my ward we played these little games finding out the possibilities of finding true love with a certain boy or mash. Remember when the guys were having scout camp at the same time a few camp sites over... or the time Sister Bird told me to be quite because I was too loud, or the frog, Julia, and Afton Dawn, or the time Kara came up to visit us right after she had just gotten her wisdom teeth pulled. Didn't something else exciting happen that year??? And of course you couldn't forget our last year at stake girls camp...oh and I just remember the time Mandy scared her mom to death after our hike and that same year we had a sleep over in the cabin, or stealing sister McCalister's Curling iron... ok enough with the memories. At the beginning of every summer I miss the good ol times we had as the 15th ward!!! I always think it would be so fun to be able to go to girls camp with a family ward and then I remember that those girls have no idea who I am and the only reason we enjoyed ourselves is because we knew each other so well.... Remember the beehive and mia maid sleepovers... Mountain brownies anyone? ANYWAYS I DON'T REALLY KNOW THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS POST BUT JUST TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE!

THERE was NOTHING better than our Girls Camps-- so much so that I refused to go to any after I moved... because i knew that NOTHING could top 15th ward activities. This is inspiring me to go find some pictures!
I loved our girls camp! We had so much fun. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Seriously, our girl's camp was always the best...even when we got rained on all week! Does anyone remember playing the cup game? Good times!
I liked taking a stroll down your memory lane. I too have mostly fond memories of girls camp.
I remember everything about girls camp. But you forgot to mention the time that Mike Perkins scared the crap out of everyone when he threw that stick out in the woods in the middle of a creepy monster story. Good times.
