Girls Camp!

Earlier this year I was called to be the Stake Young Women's Camp Cook. I was blessed to have Marianne and Vivian as my assistants who are two of the most amazing women in the world! We had such a great time working with each other and we enjoyed serving the Young Women. I never thought I would say this, but I loved this calling! Mostly because I love the women I worked with. Cooking for nearly 300 people was not easy, but we made it work and had so much fun doing it! Viv, Me, and MaryAnn Heber Valley Camp
A moment I will never forget! Amber sneaking a SECOND cupcake! I loved it!
The hardest working women at camp! We usually started cooking around 5:00am and went to bed after 11:00pm! But we ate GOOD!
Making 300 sack lunches for the hike.
Our Awesome Priesthood leaders. MaryAnn's Husband Bob(red shirt) was so helpful and kind to be the "manpower" behind everything!
My friends from my home ward - they look way too cute to be camping!
Traverse Mtn. 6th Ward girls after serving and cleaning up.
Roasting marshmallows and starbursts - my favorite thing about camping!
One night I made a fruit bouquet and dip for the stake leaders. They loved it - some a little too much! It was so fun feeling like teenagers again!
Viv- Always crackin' us up!
Playing games with the stake leaders.
No those are not their real teeth - they are Mentos Candy, but they look hilarious!
Posing before breakfast - I'm still in my slippers and PJ's!
We were doing so well not to ruin anything we cooked, but someone accidentally left a plate of hash browns in the oven too long and this was the result. Aubrey thought she might give them a try anyway!
Crispy Critters
Smells delicious!
