The Past Few Weeks...

The past few weeks have been pretty eventful. 3 weeks ago Mom, Nikki, and I went up to Bountiful to help the Jacksons clean their house and help make sure everything was ready for them to leave. Aunt Becky and Uncle Chris went into the MTC on the 21st then they left for Brazil on the 27th along with Amanda and Aimee. While everyone cleaned Amanda and I were the girls running the errands. It was so nice to just be together since it would be our last time for 10 months or so.
We washed Amanda's car
We did lots of shopping

Then Mom, Erin, and I headed off to Girls Camp...Wahoo! We went up to Camp Mia Shalom in the Wilderness Area. It was my last year of camp :(. But it was so much fun! I love the girls in our ward, they are some of my best friends!

Erin was brave and used the bathroom on the bus
Does this place look familiar? It's the 5 Star Ranch, Wahoo!

Last week we went camping up the Alpine Loop in a campground. Tuesday night Uncle David and Jeana came up and had dinner with us then just played around. Wednesday we had to come back home for Young Women's because we had a Camp Re-cap. Thursday Nikki, Jeff, and Brandon came up and on Friday Grandma came. We packed up Saturday morning, went for a little hike and then came home and went swimming in our little blow-up pool. It felt so good! Then that night we went over the the Jacksons and had dinner. Yay for friends!
