Brandon and I had the wonderful opportunity to be youth conference parents for trek. Many people were very worried about me because of my pregnant condition. I thought I would be fine and everything would be great. boy was I wrong. The weather was about 106F and after walking about four and half miles I began to feel the heat take its toll.
We were blessed to have wonderful children in our group who were very cooperative, at about 7:38 pm, Friday night we told them that both of their parents had died. How sad is that? The doctor and nurse who were on the trek took great care of me, and sent me home because it wasn't worth it for me to keep on trekking. Such a bummer!! It makes me so much more grateful for the pioneers especially the pregnant women. I do not know how they did it, but Heavenly Father blessed them with the strength to carry on.
I was very sad to leave, but it was definitely the right thing to do. I wouldn't want to put our son in any danger. Brandon was such a good husband and he came with me to take care of me. He was so supportive and just wanted the best for me. He was so cute in all of his pioneer attire.
I thank the Pioneers for all of the sacrifices that were made in my behalf.
I was pretty bummed that I didn't take much pictures. We had a specific color and a name. Here is the photos I have.
