Girls camp
Last week I had the opportunity to go to girls camp with the young women in our ward. I have to admit I wasn't all that excited for it because camping is really not my thing but it turned out better than I thought. I'm glad I went and I'm grateful for the spiritual experience I was able to have. There is something to be said about staying in the mountains that I feel closer to my Heavenly Father.
One of the highlights of the week for me was the faith walk. I found much symbolism in it and I felt like I got a glimpse of what Wyatt may be watching as he sees his family go through life. We were blindfolded and had to go through a ropes course in the moutains. At the end of the faith walk we as leaders got to greet the girls with a "Welcome Home" and a big hug. I just had to think that is exactly what Wyatt is going to get to do with each of his family members. Such a lucky kid. All in all it was a good week. I was worn out when I got home and it's been nice to just chill at home for a few days. I don't have permission to post the pictures of the girls which I took lots of but I did take a few of the beautiful surroundings that I got to enjoy for a few days. There were also lots of butterflies there which gave me many Wyatt moments. Love that!

I agree. I definately feel more spiritual feelings when I'm out in nature. I think it just leaves me in awe. Why do you think Allen and I like to camp so much? :) Pretty photos. You've got the bokeh down! Don't you love the 1.8?! Looks great!
