So everyone came into town (Everyone except Kaytee) Gosh Kaytee ha ha. Just Kidding. So everyone was in town for the sealing of Grandma Doris and Grandpa Dex. David stood in for grandpa Dex, Michael was baptized for him, and Grandma Doris played her part. So they went to the temple at...a very early time. and they did the sealing. When they got home, everyone changed, and we got dinner started. So we got dinner all done, set the table, and stuff like that then we ate dinner. We all ate and sat around talking and eating, and having funn, with the kids and stuff and just being a family. While I was in the bedroom watching the kids try to catch a leprechaun. Oh wow those kids are a handfull. But they are lots of funn. They were in town for 3 days and on sunday Doris, and the Bills came to church with us. They stayed for sacrament, and then they went back to our house, loaded up their stuff and they went home. David, Jan'L and the boys left that morning to get home, and Michael, Tara, and Lily went home around the time that we got home. Maybe a little while after we got home. Well we had lots and lots of funn with them and really enjoyed them all being here.

Gramma's Camp 2010

Hey everyone this is about 2 weeks late, sorry it took me so long. Well I hope that everyone liked the pictures that I finally figured out how to download.
This year at Gramma's camp, we went to East Canyon. When I got to Salt lake I thought that we were going to stay at my cousin's Kena, Ryann and Brenden's house and just stay the night that night, then get up in the morning and head for camp. But plans changed and everyone was already pretty stressed. So I ended up staying and Kena's house for 2 nights, while my little brother stayed with grandma at her house. Get ready for Brexton to play the gramma card this weekend. Ugh. And on Monday, we all got up and waited for my grandma to come and get us. Well she didn't so my aunt Mel, to us in, and when we got to grandma's house, we got all of our stuff out of the back of the truck, and we all walked into the garage, and we opened up the back of the car, and we saw a big wall of stuff, that half of it, we didn't even use. So we unloaded most of the stuff, and made room for all our stuff with room to pack the rest of the stuff, and when we are done, there is no room for anything else thinking that there was nothing else to pack. Well we ride the elevator up the the floor that she lives on, we walk in and see 2 shopping carts that still needed to be loaded into the car, and weren't. So we walked back downstairs, and unloaded the stuff...again. Put the important stuff in first, the loaded all of the bags and stuff. Then we all got in the car and said our goodbye's to aunt Mel, and we were on our way to stay in a trailer. We were all so excited. (Not being sarcastic).
When we got there, we waited for a while to get our trailer, then a guy came up and said that they were bringing it down, So we waited. (by the way we weren't using the name of my gramma, we were using the name of her friend so we could use her trailer). (If that makes any since at all). So we waited for a while again, and the same guy comes up and says: there is something wrong with the hydraulic in it, and there might have been a mouse or something that crawled in and chewed the wires. So we couldn't bring it down. So we all got kind of upset, and while we were waiting, gramma went to the little check in place and she talked to them for a while about how long it would take to get the trailer, and this was before we found out what was wrong with it. She had asked us to unload the car, and get ready to put it all in the trailer when it got there. So when the guy came and told us about it, we had to load everything up AGAIN, and we ended up just using the girl that we were using her trailer, we used some of her condo time. So when we got to our condo, again we unloaded everything, and keep in mind that my little brother didn't help ONCE to help unload or anything like that, because he was using the gramma card, and he didn't have to do anything. So after we got all settled in we played some games, went swimming, and stuff like that and when we were almost done for the day, Brexton started to complain that his tooth hurt, so we got him some medicine, and we put him to bed. Well we have this thing where we do midnight monopoly, we waited up for gramma who was upstairs trying to get Brexton to sleep. So all 5 of us (Ryann, Brenden, Kena, Deven and I) waited up till almost 1 in the morning waiting for gramma to come down and play with us. But she never did, so Kena and I went upstairs to see if she was coming, and the lights were off and the TV was off, so we just waisted all of that time for nothing. But it was funn while it lasted.

The next morning we all woke up, and went downstairs. And when no one was paying attention to Brexton, he would complain that his tooth hurt, which I did find out later wasn't a fake and that it apparently really hurt. But to the 5 of us, it only sounded like it hurt him when we weren't doing anything. But anyway we ate breakfast, and had some funn, went swimming again, and stuff like that.
That night, Deven, Kena and I went down the the river, which we were right by, we went and played in it. Well nobody wanted to go with us, so it was just the 3 of us. So we walked up stream, and we walked and we walked and Deven thought the he could cliff dive off of some of the rocks, so we would say: "okay guys here I go, a whole foot, if I die, I love you guys". So he would jump and then we would start walking again. Pretty soon we got to the bridge, and we walked up the hill. And we found the splash pad that was right next to the pool. We the 3 of us went over the pad, and we ran through it. Man was it cold, but it was oh so funn. Then it started to get dark so we went back to the condo, and we played some games and had our Olympics. Then gramma went and put Brexton to bed, and we waited up again. But she never came again. So we just assumed that we just wore her out. So we all went to bed.

The morning of day 3 we woke up and went and played in the river again, but this time we had Brenden come along with us. So we played in the river for a while, this time we went down stream, and when we got back the boys had to load up all of their stuff and we had to take them back into town.
On the ride down I don't think that I have ever heard anyone cry for so long in my life. Brexton cried the whole way off the mountain and when we got back into town, and when we got back to Brenden and Kena's house. He finally stopped when gramma gave him some medicine and they went back to gramma's house while we waited or Kena's friend Harlee that we were taking back up the the condo with us. So she came and after about 2 and a half hours of waiting gramma finally came back and got us. So we went up only this time with Ryann, Me, Kena, Harlee, Brexton and gramma. So we stayed the night again and the next night and then 2 days later we woke up, and got all of our stuff together, and we cleaned the condo, checked out, loaded everything up,(Which Brexton didn't help again at all). And when I asked him to please help (in the nicest way that I could) He freaked out, and said :I don't have to. So I went out and said: "Gramma, we have loaded and unloaded numerous times and he has not helped ONCE. And this is what she said: "kendi, you just need to get off his case. Did you help with the kitchen this morning. And I said no. She said well just get off his case. So I went back inside, and I was pretty mad. So I just didn't talk for the rest of the way back to Salt lake.

When we got back into town, Kathy and my dad came up and stayed the weekend, so I stayed till Sunday, and we had lots of funn. We went the the Mayan and ate dinner for mine and Deven's 14th birthdays. And the next day, we went to Gateway, and the 5 kids were back together again, (Brenden, Deven, Kena, Ryann and Me). When we were done there, we went back to gramma's house, and we loaded up all of out stuff, said our goodbyes, and we were on our way home.
Hope that you enjoyed.

Girls Camp Part 2 (I told you there would be more to come)

Sorry there isn't any pictures, I will get thoses posted ASAP. Enjoy.
Well here I am again back from girls camp and from Gramma's Camp.Sorry it's a little late. So here is the story of Girls Camp only. (I will post Gramma's Camp Later when I get it finished).
So this is how my Girls Camp Journey Began...Enjoy
Day 1: The morning of Girls camp i woke up, got the rest of my stuff together, & called my mom to say bye.
Aspen came and got me from my house and we both met Lizzy over at Sister O's house. We said the prayer, got into our groups and into all of the cars that we were taking and we were on our way to Little Thunder Mountain (Right up above Beaver).
When we got their we got signed in, assigned to our our bunk houses. And unloaded all of our stuff out of the cars. (I'm pretty sure that I had the heaviest bag of them all). So the bunk houses that we were assigned to had bunks that were held to the wall by chains that were 3 beds tall (If that makes sense). So we all set up camp, we ate our lunches, played some getting to know you games with the members in our camps, we did lots of crafts, then we did a ward preparation for the fireside. At the fireside everyone presented there polls that represented what there's was for and they did their dances.

1st ward designed their poll how they had lots of courage they also had a girl with a cape and they said they had the courage to fly and choose the right and to stay on the right path. Then they did their dance to a song called reach for the stars.
2Nd ward designed their poll looking like a big umbrella to show all of their courage and by dressing up like hero's holding up signs with positive and courageous thoughts. And then they did their dance to the superman theme song. And so on...
After the fireside everyone had went down to the pavilion and we all had dinner. When dinner was over. We all went to bed.

Day 2: The next day we all woke up, and ate breakfast with our tribes. After breakfast we cleaned up got dressed and walked down to the amphitheatre and we had our morning devotional. We rose the flag and said the morning prayer and so on.
After the devotion we had lunch at the pavilion. We all sat around talking and eating and meeting our friends that we haven't seen since school got out. After lunch we had what we called tribe time, where we got to pass stuff off to get our certification passed off. Liz, Aspen and I went for walks down in the forest every day we were there. We had our own special place. It was a place with a big log that we climbed on and it was mountaid in between 2 trees so it was diagonal. So we would walk up I stand take Lot's of pictures. As you can see. After tribe time we did some crafts down at the pavilion, and after that we had dinner and when dinner was all said and done, we walked back to the amphitheatre for our last devotional of the day. So we had our devotional and we took the flag down said the goodnight prayer, and we all went to bed.

Day 3: The next morning Aspen and my other friend Summer came in and said a girl named Maggie in their bunk house fell out of her second bunk the night before and cut her eye on the edge of the ladder. But we did find out that all she said was "ow" and go back up and back into her bed. She did end up going to the nurse, and when someone asked about how she was and how her eye was, all she said was "the one thing I hate about being sick" and she would just walk away. Last time I ever ask her about how she is feeling. So we went and had breakfast in our tribes, and then walked down to the amphitheatre for our morning devotional, after that we all had to get into the groups that we were assigned when we got signed in. I was Women of Moses. And we all had to walk around the forest and listen to the people of prophets and kings. They were all very interesting, and it was a great experience.
After the women talked, we walked to the grove and we had big groups of playing with hula-hoops where we all had to hold hands and get the hoop around the circle some how without letting go of your partner. The next one we had to go through was the toxic waste land where we had to use the materials that the leaders had given us and we all had to walk across the "toxic waste" (it was actually a huge pile of wood). Then one of leaders said Acid rain storm, anyone who isn't wearing glasses, contacts, hats, etc. is now blind. I was wearing Lizzy's sun glasses so it was my fault that Lizzy went blind. Poor Lizzy. So we made it across the waste land and we walked to the "Web" that was held to trees with bungee cords. And the point of that game was you had to get through the wholes in the web by jumping through them, but you couldn't touch the ground behind the stick they had placed there. I got through the smallest one. And everyone else made it through the rest to. The next one where we had to go was the see-saw, where 2 groups of the same amount had to stand on both sides of the see-saw and had to balance it out. And the point to that one, was it was to help us see that the see-saw was our life and we were balancing it out together. So we went to the last one and we all had to stand in a line on a board and we had to get the 2 end people to the opposite ends that they were standing on. And thanks to mostly Lizzy, we got through it. If Liz hadn't been there I don't think we would have been done in time for Lunch. So we wen to the pavilion and ate lunch. After lunch we went to our tribes for tribe time, and we all passed off everything that we needed, and we handed them in.

When we were done with that we went back down the the pavilion and we wrote letters to the patients in hospitals, and then we had our last evening devotional and we went to our new assigned camps for the last couple of hours that we had of that day, and we ate dinner in out wards. And thanks to our bishop that came up, he brought us Cafe Rio. The best food that we had in days. After dinner, we all snuggled around the fire, and we had testimony meeting. (My favorite part of Girls Camp). After testimony meeting, we all walked back to our bunks and went to bed.

Day 4: The next day, we all woke up got dressed ate breakfast and we all hurried back into our bunks. I think that we got all of our stuff packed up in less than half an hour. Then we had to get everything into the cars, and had to clean up the bunk houses. After that was all said and done, we went down the the amphitheatre and had out last devotional. I helped take the flag down and fold it up. Then we had our last prayer and got into the cars and went home.
When we got back to the church, I ran up to a tree, and i hugged it, and said,"I have never been so happy to see this tree in my entire life". And then we got every one's stuff that we were taking home and we all went home.
End of Girls camp 2010
