As promised, here are all of the little videos that I took of the various events at Girls Camp. I didn't participate in a lot of the fun activities so I became the official camera person in charge of documenting all the excitement. And, in turn, got some really good footage of our girls (and leaders) enjoying themselves at camp.

Maddie was our Queen of steal the flag!! If you couldn't find her wait a minute and she would return to camp with someone's flag!! Here she is after an easy victory if stealing the coveted Stake Flag!! Way to go Maddie...you are awesome!!!
Rachel being silly!! Doesn't she look just adorable in those goggles? Love ya RC!!!!
TO get our flag back we had to build a pyriamid...actually two of them....my batteries died so I only got one of them. It was fun trying to think of ways for the camps to earn their flags back!!
Sorry not sure who this is...just know that they are one of us! The zipline was another favorite activity of the girls!! There is nothing like flying through the air on a wire with just a harness holding you to it!!
Another one of our archery angels Nancy. She was excited to have hit the red of the bullseye...WAY TO GO NANCY!!!
We had a great time learning how to do archery under the intsruction of Bishop Hughes!! He was a great teacher (hahaha) and taught us well seeing as how most of the girls at least hit the target...some even got right in the center bullseye...WAY TO GO!!!! Here are a few of our sharp shooters!!!
Larena hit the bullseye on her very first try...way to go Larena!!! You are awesome!!
Megan or "Hiawatha 4" as Bishop Hughes called her with her bullseye!!
Abbie also landed a bullseye!! Good Shot!!!
Larena, Rachel and Nancy at the shooting range. For girls they are a pretty dang good shot!!!
Sister Hillius waiting for the all clear to load up and start shooting!!
Amanda and Megan taking their turns with the 22's.
Abbie, Maddie and Sister Beaumont getting last minute instruction from President Jensen.
Sister Beaumont...ready...aim...FIRE!!!
One of the first things we did at camp was to play a get to know you game with our sister ward...Mesquite 2nd! It was lots of fun! We learned that almost everyone there was a "Twilight" fan!! We learned lots of fun about ALL the girls!!Here are a few pics of the girls playing the get to know you game. Ashlynn telling everyon who she didn't like...silly girl...we like everyone!!!
Abbie telling us about her dog Tribble and how she loves to play basketball!!
Rachel, Emily, Amanda and I had the oppurtunity to go up a day before everyone and learn how to be good leaders, dig the water slide trench and sleep on the cement in the rain!! Above Rachel is taking a break from digging to pose for snap happy Sister Noel!!
Amanda in the cookie cutter game... a game of trust! I was so proud that all of my 3 that went up early participated!! It was scary putting your trust in others...especailly ones you don't know...but they did it!! GOOD JOB LADIES!!!
Emily working hard on the trench! We felt kind of like a chain gang at times, but the result was sooooo fun!! Hopefully that will be a yearly thing at girls camp...wahoo!!!
