One of my best memories from this summer will definitely be
Girls Camp!! I had the chance to be the
Ward Camp Director for our ward and a 2
nd year
camp mom!! Growing up in Young Women's back home I
LOVED girls camp!! I looked forward to going every single summer, and when I graduated from high school I was so
sad I didn't get to go to camp anymore! When the stake leaders asked if I would interested in going to camp this summer I
jumped at the offer!!
Girls camp in Florida is completely different than girls camp in Star Valley, Wyoming! These girls spend a week in air conditioned cabins, sleeping on bunk beds, showering and using a real bathroom, and had almost all of their meals cooked and served to them. Compare that to going to the mountains, setting up a tent, sleeping on rocks, using a port-o-potty, and cooking every single one of our meals! I definitely prefer this version of camp!!
The theme for the Jacksonville East Stake was: Hogwarts Camp of Strength and Courage, and it was simply amazing! I can't even begin to explain how much hard work and planning the stake camp directors put into this camp! It blew me away. I seriously felt like I was spending a week at Hogwarts, that's how awesome it was!
Instead of being split up as wards at camp, we were split up into year groups. I was one of two camp moms for the 2nd year girls, aka:Ravenclaw! Here are some of the pics from the week!
Our sweet cabin, all decorated and ready for the girls to come
We won the house points for best cabin decorations
The inside: We tried to decorate it like the
Ravenclaw common room
The first night there we had a great feast and could dress up as a character from Harry Potter. Being from
Ravenclaw I chose Moaning Myrtle!

Ravenclaws!
The second day at camp we all went horse back riding!
And every afternoon we had
Quidditch matches, complete with our very own Madame Hooch!
(did you know it is a college sport now?)
When we weren't
canoeing, doing crafts, or just hanging out we played on the huge
water slide!
Hanging out waiting for our tinfoil dinners to cook!
Our 2
nd year group in front of the
Quidditch hoops
A classic picture for our group. The girls were obsessed with the "My name is chubby story"

The girls also got owl mail at camp! The stake leaders made every single girl one of these cute fluffy owls and attached a letter from home to them and had them hanging from the tree one morning.
We even had our own
Whomping Willow
The camp service project! These
pavers were all
hand painted by the girls! It was amazing!
Our second year girls minus
Erykah at the camp awards night! They are adorable!
Showing their true essence. We seriously laughed all week long! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect group of girls to hang out with all week!
We were also the House Cup Champions! These girls were few in numbers but they kicked butt at everything they did!
Showing off our Golden Snitch awards for being the
Quidditch Champions!
Seriously we rocked!
The four amazing women who planned the entire camp!
Me and my 2 beehives Christen and Hannah. I love them!
Probably the 2 coolest camp moms ever!
Just a shot of some of us and our matching flip flops we made for them!
This was honestly my most
favorite girl's camps I have ever gone too! I am so
thankful to Greg for being such a good dad and staying home with Brooklyn all week so that I could go! Not only were the theme and details
amazing, but the spirit that was at the camp was so
strong. I learned so much not only from our daily devotionals but from every girl that was there! The young women in Florida are small in numbers, but they are some of the
most spiritual,
loving girls I have ever met, and I will always remember this experience!
This picture defines her true personality! 
She is one of the happiest little girls I have ever known!
We Love her!
Haha she thinks if she closes her eyes, that you can't see her. She does it everytime we catch her sneaking into something, coloring the walls, playing in the toilet, etc.
Brooklyn loves to cook!! Here she is making jello jigglers with dad!
And then of course she gets to reap the benefits of all her hard work with mom!
On the 3rd we went to our ward's 4th of July celebration breakfast/parade!
All the little kiddos decorated their bikes, strollers, cars, etc and rode around the building for a little parade!
I love this picture of Greg pushing Brooklyn around the church
Brooklyn enjoying the nice summer day
Brooklyn and mom ready to go to watch the fireworks

Some friends from our ward invited to go to their family's condo on the beach to watch the firework show. We went down to walk on the beach for awhile before it got dark!
Kayla is in my Young Women's group and it was her birthday, so we took her and her sister Rebecca to the beach with us!
Brooklyn loved Kayla and Rebecca and kept laughing at them the whole time!
Greg and Brooklyn on the beach!
We saw these birthday drawings in the sand, so I made Kayla pose by them...she looks really excited huh?
This night also had one of the best sunsets I have seen since we have been here in Florida! It was so beautiful!
We were able to watch the fireworks from the condo's balcony! We had the most perfect view of the fireworks being blasted off the pier over the ocean!
In between watching the fireworks Brooklyn would run around the balcony going bowl to bowl stealing everyone's popcorn! She definitely gets her love of popcorn from her Grandma Baxter!
next, sneak in behind the girls for a surprise attack...
and while the girls are chatting jump up on the table and grab a handful...
and to finish the mission: hurry and sneak back to my chair so no one knows I was gone..all the while trying to hurry and dispose of the evidence! (notice her nice big squirrel cheeks)
And after a long evening at the beach, the girls crashed on the way home!
I love how she sleeps with her mouth open, that is a Great Grandma Wolfley trait for sure!
We had so much fun and are so grateful that the Dill's were nice enough to share their 4th of July with us!! Watching the fireworks over the ocean was one of the most spectacular things I have seen! We had so much and loved every second of it!
