Girls Camp 09 - Lake Isabella and The Kern River meet the LR2 young Women!



We just got back from Girls Camp.  Let me tell you, we had some fun!  25 wonderful Young Women.  We camped at Lake Isabella.  Yes, we really camped in tents!  We rafted down the Kern River and also went on an ever so challenging High Ropes course.  It was a blast for all! Below is a picture of Evan (AKA the Bishop).  The first pic shows how high this was.  This one is called the "Leap of Faith."  First you have to climb up this pole.  Then get yourself on the platform.  Then leap off and grab the trapeze.  Mind you, the jumper is tethered to someone on the ground who is spotting you.  Notice in this pic that Evan is tethered to the guy holding the rope.  Notice Ridgely Brown holding onto the guy just so he doesn't go flying up if Evan comes flying down.  (Evan was alittle bigger then the guy).   And here he goes, he jumps and it's all fun!



Pose on the way down of course!
This is me.  The object here is to climb up the pole, and glide along the wire grabbing each rope until you make it across.
Here is Claire,  this one is the toughest.  She has to walk along two ropes while hanging onto one and make it across.  Toughest, because it is the highest and the ropes were the most wobbliest.  But she did it!
This pic is out of order, oops, it is of some of the girls floating in the lake back at camp.  Ahhh, water!  It was hot out there!
This is Alexa posing on her way down.
Miss Tori had no fear!  She kept a smile on her face the whole time!

         Strike a pose Miss India!  You go girl!
I am guessing this is Rachel D. but she is so high up it is hard to tell!

Bird on a perch.  This was a fun game we played!


Thank you to all who went.  It was a fabulous time.  These girls really are awesome.  They all participated in the river rafting and ropes course proving to all that they can accomplish anything!  If you didn't see your pic here, don't worry, I have lots of everyone.  I will have to burn  CD's and share with you all so you can have proof of what you did!

8th Grade Dance

That is right.  Parker is graduating from Middle School.  To celebrate all of the 8th graders from our ward and the ward next to us went to the school dance.  We all met up for some pictures at Town Square and then off to the dance.  To finish off the night we had them over to our house for some food and games.  It was a fun night.  Aren't these Young Men and Young Women GORGEOUS?!?!?!

Preschool fun at the Farm





Us city Folk have to go on field trips to find animals.  Max's Pre-school had a fun trip to Zoomars farm.  They all loved the guinea pigs!

Cute and Smart!
