So...

Yeah. I never found my camera. I havent taken any pictures in over a month. I am distraught(sp?) about it. I don't really have the funds to buy a new one right now, but I need to take pictures of the latest happenings. I have had a busy month. If any of you care I will give you the low down. FYI- there are no pictures to document any of this.

I went to girls camp two weeks ago. I was there for the entire week. I have to say, I had a great time. It was so nice to have 5 minutes for myself. The young women were so well behaved and we hardly had any problems. We had a death in our ward while we were gone and it was really hard on all of us but it turned out really good as it gave us an opportunity to teach the young women about the resurrection, eternal families, etc. I think they left with stronger testimonies of the plan of salvation. I know I sure did. We had alot of fun activities to do up on the mountain. The only thing I hated about the whole thing was that it was FREEZING most of the time. Anyone who knows me well knows that I loathe the cold. I don't love being hot, but I would take it over cold any day. I never wore short sleeves the whole week. I had long johns and long sleeved shirts the whole time. I was, however, very warm at night. I borrowed my dad's zero degree mummy bag and was toasty warm. Not so much comfortable, but warm. I missed my baby and hubby terribly and was soo glad to get home to them. Katelyn would not have anything to do with me for a couple of hours, but we have since made up and she is back to bugging the heck out of me.

This last week we have been house sitting at my mom's while she and my dad were staying at a beach house in Oceanside with their best friends. Jason has been in heaven. My parents have a vent right above their bed that blows ice cold air. We have a vent above our bed at home, but what little air it does blow is equal to the outside temperature. We liked to pretend that that big ol' house was ours and that we had money. Yesterday we were forced back into reality when my parents came home. They told us we could stay as long as we wanted, but it just wasn't the same.

This morning I finished going through all of Katelyn's baby stuff and got it all boxed up and put in the garage. She now has a big girl room. This afternoon/evening will be her first night in her big girl bed. She already told me that the crib is hers and no i cannot move it. This ought to be a fun week.

If anyone is still reading this, you are a true friend. I am going to start cleaning my room tonight and if I don't find my camera I will have to kill myself. Well, not really, but I will be bummed. Wish me luck.

Please don't kill yourself! I am glad you survived girls camp. I am glad Katelyn made up with you. I am happy that you got to stay in luxury for a while. I like you. I am glad you finally posted.

Only a mother would understand how girl's camp can be a restful experience. I'm glad I didn't have to go with our ward this year though. I needed the break.

You are cute. Did you find that camera? Glad you are home, but it is silly that I am gone. We will have to do fun things with the girls next week. Love you.

Thanks for house sitting for us. It was so nice not to have to worry about our home while we were out laying on the beach in beautiful Oceanside. We found a condo we wish to buy, can anyone make a donation? We are only about $600,000 short. Thanks again!! Love, Mom

I can pitch in about $20 Melanie, but I would require some kind of ownership.

It is cute that you liked Girl's Camp. I would rather die than participate in that crap.

Find your camera!!!

Let me know how the big girl bed is going. Ryder has good nights and bad nights. And he used to be my perfect sleeper! I'm glad you had fun at girls camp. Eric and my girls are there now. Let's get together!

We had fun with Kate while you were gone. By the way, we went to get a new wireless keyboard from the Apple store, but they were $80. We had to settle for a generic wired keyboard from Fry's. Let's hope Kate doesn't decide to pour milk on this one, or I might just have to put her to work to make up for it, lol!
