I Love!!!!
Springtime...Spring Break....Spring Training...Spring Fever!!!!
I thought 3:00 PM would never come on Friday the 13th.
I usually get off work at 3:30 but... Jen had a softball game and it was the Friday before spring break, no one else stuck around so ADIOS McKellips Middle School!
A Big thanks to my wonderful ward family. We had a ward campout last week-end and was I excited (no), but I was in charge of the activity. Needless to say, it turned out to be SOOO much fun. This is why it was fun:
1) Fun Ward Family
2) Huge Bonfire (night & morning) Bro. Angle made a huge metal fire pit that we kept stocked w/ fire wood. We sat around the fire and laughed and talked til 12:30AM.
3) Good Food (Thanks Amanda Raine)
4) Fun Games (The men & some woman got a little competitive in Horse Shoes)
5) Wonderful Camp site (no dirt - well, paved roads and a side walk all the way to the indoor bathrooms)
6) Indoor bathrooms - running water and also showers if you wanted.
7) Gorgeous view of Roosevelt Lake
8) Wood stove in our tent!! I can't tell you what a big difference this made in how I liked this camping trip. I get cold so easy and I don't sleep well when I'm cold, let alone in a sleeping bag. Bro. Angle again came through and let us use his big tent that had a wood burning stove inside. It was so warm and cozy!
9) Wonderful weather - beautiful clear skies, beautiful sunset.
10) Bishops message on Being Grateful for what we have and quit looking elsewhere for happiness when it's in our own front yard. Thanks Bishop - he's truly and inspired man.
I forgot to take my camera - sorry no pictures.
I also got to eat at "The Burger House" . It was my first time. Yummy.
HAPPY SPRING BREAK TO ALL!!!!!

Spring Break is moving tooooo fast for me and I'm sad it is coming to an end....dangit! I know a lot of people who ♥ the burger house...
Okay---I need to pick your brain. Where did you go for the ward camp out? What do you do for the Easter Egg hunt? Guess I better just call you. Funny that we have the same calling. I just rented an Easter Bunny costume for pictures for that day, but that's about it for my planning. I have some games in mind, too. Anyway---I will call.
