Home w/out Mom

While I was at Girls Camp Tyler had to get the kids up, dressed, fed, and out the door by 8 a.m. every morning. He even took the time to do Addi's hair one morning...

Meanwhile, Mr. C was avoiding some bad smells?

Thank you Tyler for letting me go to Girls Camp! Thank you for your love and support!

Girls Camp Round 2

So I was released from the Young Women's Presidency back in May, and of course I was bummed that I wasn't going to be going to Girl's Camp. I love Girl's Camp! Who doesn't!? But then the same Sunday that I was released I got called back into the Bishop's office and called to be the Assistant Camp Director. Oh yeah! Camp Lomia here I come! But one problem...I am pregnant. No worries! One Dr.'s note later I was given the thumbs up. I think people thought I was being a good sport by going pregnant, but little do they all know that I wouldn't have missed it for the world!!! Girls Camp is like a miniature EFY. The devotionals, classes, activities, and spirit are AMAZING! I'm so grateful that I was able to go. I'm grateful for the girls and their testimonies and examples of faith and courage. Our theme for camp was "Courage to Stand" from the mutual theme Joshua 1:9. Oh, and did I mention that we had 42 girls from our ward go to camp!?!

Who wouldn't want to go here?

Camp Lomia, Pine, AZ

Clean, Happy, Energized, girls ready to go to camp...

We're here! Me and my 24 week prego belly. :-)

Girls camp was extra special this year because I got to go with Tyler's youngest sister (my sister-in-law) Annie.

Going on our hike

Biggest pancake I've ever seen.

There's nothing like a little spinning-around and zip-lining to get your baby-belly moving.

Poor Bro. Bloomfield was stressing that I was going to go into labor, but I kept telling him not to discriminate pregnant women. :-) Needless to say, he was happy when our activities time ended.

My shirt says, "So hot it hurts".

That's what I try to tell myself every morning when I'm big and pregnant. :-)

One of the craziest and fun part of girls camp...

the 4th year water fight!

don't ask

And this about sums it up...

4th of July in CA

We got to spend our 4th of July holiday in sunny California with all of my family (Wagners and Nielsens). It was so fun to visit home and see so many familiar places again. I love that my parents still live in the same house that I grew up in. As soon as I walk thru the front door memories start flooding back into my mind. We had a wonderful trip and did so many fun things including:

-Swimming

Look at little man's muscles!

The kids love spending time with their ONLY cousin, Lizzy!

-Relaxing (I love that I can just sit back because the kids only want "Grandma!" or "Grandpa!")

My parents house is a little cooler in the mornings than we are used to. :-)

-Fish hatchery

cousins

Grandpa getting food for fish. Every time Addi got more food in her cup she would pour it out in one turn, and then want more. She didn't understand what it meant to "spread the love".

-Park

-Family picture

We were trying to take a picture that my parents could take to the Eyring reunion in Oct., but the camera kept going out of focus. Above is some of us playing around while the camera was being focused. Below is our best group shot.

We are a happy family!

-Making chocolate chip cookies with Grandpa

Their faces say it all!

-Mac n' cheese anytime!

-The Nut Tree & Fenton's Ice Cream

I love my hubby!

Sisters

Lipstick then kisses!

Fentons!!!

(yep, just like in the movie "Up")

The BEST ice cream in the WORLD!!!

Now you see it...

Now you don't...

-Fun car rides

-Visiting Aunt Lisa's grave

(for some reason those pictures won't download)

-Movies

-Sleepovers

It was a super fun trip and we can't wait to visit again soon!
