Super Fun with Super Powers!

Well, I think we all had a blast at girls camp!!! 
Now that we have had a little time to recover, I have a few photos to post!!
We didn't take a lot of photos, but we covered a few of the highlights.
 
 Redneck S'mores!
It was so hot that our bag of marshmallows had completely melted into a brick! The girls got creative and figured out how to make some S'mores in spite of the set back. They spread out all of the marshmallow on a pan, stuck pieces of chocolate bars through out and then set the pan in the fire to roast the marshmallow. Then they dipped with their graham crackers. We thought they were pretty brilliant!!

Getting Ready for Skit Night
The girls created their skit and their costumes all on their own!
It was super cute! We were VERY impressed with their skit!
 
 
 Minion- Rylee
Mega Mind - Hailey

Thor- Becca
(We loved the hairy chest!)
 Hulk- Allyson
Batman - Megan
 Princess Divine Nature - Jessica
Wreck it Ralph - Avery


Sister Ealey provided the girls with candy bombs, capes, and masks to use to 'bomb' the other camps. 
The girls looked so cute, and they had a great time!
Only one camp fought back....
...with water balloons! 

We want to thank Sister Oviatt for making these amazing capes!! And also Sister Walker for the glow sticks!


Camp Ho Nok was fun! The girls got to participate in all kinds of activities, like rock climbing, shooting guns and arrows, throwing knives and hatchets, identifying animal skins, and other fun games!




This pretty much sums it all up right here...
Girls camp wasn't a success unless they all pass out in the car on the way home!! 
 We want to send a big thank you to the Stake for creating such a fun camp!!

We all had a blast!
Let's all remember that we have Divine Nature within us, and each possess Super Powers that will help us through any challenge that comes our way in life and will also help us achieve any goal we set for ourselves!

You are all amazing Young Woman!
We love you all!

Stake Girls Camp

Girls Camp Theme
"Heroes with Super Powers"

"and they were armed with righteousness and with the power of God in great glory." 
1 Nephi 14:14

Each ward has been assigned a value that will serve as a 'mini theme' for our camp.

our theme is:

Divine Nature

our ward color is 'Blue' 



1 Peter 1: 4-7
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

As we are preparing for girls camp let's all think about our Divine Natures and how this knowledge shapes who we are and how we act. 

Here is a quote from  President Gordon B. Hinckley found here.

“Woman is God’s supreme creation. Only after the earth had been formed … and after man had been placed on the earth, was woman created; and only then was the work pronounced complete and good.

“Of all the creations of the Almighty, there is none more beautiful, none more inspiring than a lovely daughter of God who walks in virtue with an understanding of why she should do so, who honors and respects her body as a thing sacred and divine, who cultivates her mind and constantly enlarges the horizon of her understanding, who nurtures her spirit with everlasting truth” (“Our Responsibility to Our Young Women,” Ensign, September 1988, 11).

“Live up to the great and magnificent inheritance which the Lord God, your Father in Heaven, has provided for you. Rise above the dust of the world. Know that you are daughters of God, children with a divine birthright. Walk in the sun with your heads high, knowing that you are loved and honored, that you are a part of his kingdom, and that there is for you a great work to be done which cannot be left to others” (“Live Up to Your Inheritance,” Ensign, November 1983, 84)."

I just love that quote! Doesn't it just make you want to yell 'girl power!' Remember, you are all daughters of God with a divine birthright! I love that last paragraph where it says "Walk in the sun with your heads high, knowing that you are loved and honored, that you are part of His kingdom, and that there is for you a great work to be done which cannot be left to others"

Here is a little quote I found on pinterest that I thought was cute and ties in with our divine natures:


Have a great week girls, We will see you on Tuesday!
