Girls Camp +Camping

Hello. I just returned girls camp. I was called to be a YL mom(they call them staff girls where I'm from) It was a lot of fun. We went to Ft. Parker in Mexia, TX. We had cabins. With frigid AC units. It was great, until you ventured outside and melted from the heat. Or until you get drenched with water from your sweet little young women and have to try to eat your hot dog in the freezing dining hall shivering like a chihuahua. There was also a awesome old creepy cemetery we walked through everyday to get to the lake. The girls had their snipe hunt IN the cemetery. I was too scared/superstitious to join them. They looked so hilarious with toothpaste smeared all over their faces. Camp was a lot of fun, had many great experiences and got to know the girls in my ward better. These are my cute YW in my ward.

I also started No-Pooing my hair while at camp. Perfect timing since I could care less if my hair looked gross or crazy. Turns out its going pretty well and doesn't look or smell gross at all! here's a link to what thats all about if you are concerned/interested http://livinginanotherlanguage.com/blog/2013/05/22/i-still-dont-use-shampoo/.
The kids were super jealous I was going "camping"so I had the brilliant idea of having them come up Thursday night and pick me up from camp, then we could go camping as a family at the primitive camp spots. So they did. NEVER go camping in Texas in the summer unless you want to be drenched in sweat, mixed with sunscreen, topped with insect repellent. The bugs/crickets/frogs/demon spiders were sooo loud it was hard to fall asleep. And just before I was almost asleep Truman started saying, "I need to poo..I need to pee" (we just had taken him and so we thought he was just saying this because he does sometimes) Me in my sleep deprived exhausted sweaty state mumbled, "Just go to sleep you can poo in the morning" he then started whining and we hear SQUIPPLOOSHH runny poo everywhere!!! So disgusting. Stu and I jump up he carries him out of the tent as I try to wipe up poo drizzles. I felt really bad told Tru we were sorry and should've taken him. We wiped him down good with water and baby wipes and went to bed. The next morning we look at the spot we were cleaning him up at and there was a monsterous spider web and creepy huge spider not two inches from where we were standing. Yikes. Then we cleaned up camp and swam in the lake. The dirty muggy stinky lake. But it was fun. The End.
