Camping!

Wow! I'm back from Young Women in Zion Camp and what an astonishing experience it was! I'm so tired but my heart is very full of memories, uplifting experience (especially on the teeter totter the last day) and love for all those I met - including all my Faith Followers and for all my Letha girls. My life is Forever changed!

Some crazy things did happen and some of us had a hard time keeping warm during the night. I was so grateful I brought my extra blanket or I would have frozen to the floor of my little tent. I'm so excited that I caught on Video Pres Martin Walker's and the girls Traditional trip into the lake with all their clothes on. Yeah!!!! Great fun and the water was sooooo Cold!

I will never forget the moment I realized that My Jessica Timony (our neighbor) was sitting in my campsite with a cute but unsure smile on her face - ready for fun - something I never dreamed possible. I will never forget the crushing feeling I felt and the shock I heard from the girls as they were asked to crack the shells of their beautiful egg creations to reveal the true middle within. I will never forget all my Faith Followers linking together to cross to the end - never breaking the link or unknotting the ropes to find their 'friend' or discovering the true business of fork writing in the sand. I will never forget the image that appeared slowly - first as a shadow, then a shadowy castle and then clearly the Salt Lake Temple. I will never forget Br. Summers doing 3 extra push-ups just for me because I fell short. I will never forget my love for my Savior and the deep feeling in my heart for all He has done for me.

My heart is so full.

I'm here!
