I got home from Girl's Camp a little after 1am on Thursday (a few of us left early).

I was so so tired and so so dirty and smelly.

It was hot there. I heard it was even hotter here though.

When I crept inside, it was cold, dark, and CLEAN inside my house. Yes, CLEAN. My hubby surprised me with a few things whilst I was gone. A clean home being one! Nothing makes me smile more than a clean sink and floor (pathetic, I know).

Also, he took it upon himself to take the babies binky's AWAY for good! Can you even believe it?

I was shocked. I was happy I wasn't hear for the rough few nights of crying to sleep. But hey 18 months isn't too bad for a binky, right?

Seriously, Tyler is amazing. He is a better at so many things than I am. It is great to know that I can be gone for a few nights and not freight. I know that everyone is safe and we are on the "same" team with everything.

Despite missing my Parker's b-day, everything at camp was Amazing.

What a great escape to be Spiritually fed.

Just what I needed.

I learned so much from the girl's and more from the other Stake Staff leaders.

I was in charge of crafts with two other ladies. It was a busy two days but everyone got their crafts complete with no major incident.

I am grateful that our church puts on such an amazing Camp for young girls. I truly know that it is an inspired program of the Lord. I know that girls learn life long skills while they are here.

I know that I still remember when I was 14 going to church camp.. I hope to be an example to those girls.

Thursday as we were running around like crazy getting ready for Parker's party, the electricity went out!

It was SOOOOO HOT!

It went out at 2:15 pm and didn't come back on till 6:40 pm!

It was awful and I may or may not have had a panic attack.

I needed to prepare things for the party and had no fridge or freezer...

It was 87 degrees in our house by 6:40 pm.

We had the party at 5:30.

It started outside by the pool...

By time we went in, power was on.
