Busy Saturday...to say the least....

One of my callings right now is the Stake Girls Camp Certification Specialist. And it's quite the job and keeps me busy, but I'm loving it! This Saturday was a really busy day!! We had our Pre-Camp certification from 8am-1pm that I was totally in charge of. Each year at girls camp you have to certify in different things. They got to learn things like First Aid, CPR, Outdoor cooking, lots about fires and misc camping how to's. It turned out to be a great day. For our outdoor cooking certification I decided to do something I remember doing at girls camp and make dutch oven fajitas. With some great help from a few men in my ward they turned out delicious!! It was a really hot day, definitely into the 100s but since we cant have fires at LoMia we had to certify for that before we left. After all was said and done I think the girls had a great time and learned a lot.

I've never stacked dutch-ovens on top of each to cook but it worked great!
After being mostly in the sun for 5 hours I headed home to pick up our boys and my wonderful sisters who babysat for me and headed over to MamaZelle's to help Joyze get ready for Prom. I got to do hers and her best friend Stephanie's hair. Their dresses were gorgeous and they looked beautiful! Those guys taking them out sure are lucky!!! I got to spend some good quality time with my dad and mom. It was a nice day!
Aren't they beautiful!

While we were busy in town Brent was off Hiking with Eric. After their trip to the Power Plant in New Mexico fell through they were able to arrange to go backpacking together after work on Friday and come home Saturday night. He said he FROZE that night (so hard to imagine when it's so hot here) and took some great pictures of where they went hiking and was exhausted when he got home. We both went to bed about 9:30 to get some good sleep in. What a day!


Brent and Eric are wearing their new favorite things; "Shmogs" They've come in really handy in keeping cool and staying warm.
