June 5, 2015  What a great day.   I got up at 5:00 AM, because I got to make 13 dozen + 4 cinnamon rolls for the missionaries.  I was on my feet from 5:45 AM until 2:00 PM.  They all turned out perfect.  All of the missionaries Loved them, but by the time I finished I wasn't sure if I ever wanted to see another cinnamon roll again.  Around 3:30 I ate my cinnamon roll and that was the first thing I had eaten all day.  Boy are my legs and back sore.

Our stake came up today.  They are staying in a different camp than ours, but we went down to see them.  It was so fun seeing all of our friends.  The kids as well as the leaders made us feel so good.  They invited us to have dinner with them so we did.

June 6, 2015  The weather is beautiful.  The sun is shinning with a cool breeze.  We have a youth conference in from Cedar City.  They have been fun to see and listen to.  Last night they had the woman from "Meet the Mormons" movie that talked about having two children out of wed lock.as their guest speaker.  The Balls and the Webbs went to hear her talk, but dad and I stayed home because I was hurting so much.  I slept great.

Dad's blood sugar dropped to 35 today and that wiped him out.  There is a mamma deer that comes into our camp everyday that is ready to have a baby anytime.  I can't wait to see the new fawn.

Looking forward to seeing Kim & family tonight, and Sean's, & Richy's families and Dennis tomorrow for Ethan's becoming a priest

I love you all tons.  Mom

June 3rd on the mountain

Today was awesome.  We have loved seeing the girls and hearing them have tons of fun.  Tonight I gave the "O Women of Faith"  presentation to the Vernal Ashley stake.  I cried while giving the presentation.  I could really feel the spirit.  Dad bore his testimony.  It was great.  There was lots of hugs and high 5 after the presentation.  It really made dad and I feel good.  The girls from the stake gave us a really cute flower pot with a bouquet of candy bars.  YUM!  They invited us to dinner so we joined them and loved being there.

 June 2, 2015  We are home for P day.  I will be going to see Dr. Calton for my knee!  Boo!  I am a big coward.

I have been called to cook cinn. rolls for 156 missionaries this Friday!  We have been asking all of our kids here in Ogden & dad's sisters if we can borrow their cookie sheets, so I have enough to make all of the cinn. rolls.  Wish me luck.

We got girls as well as families.  What fun.  We put on our skit telling all of the rules.   Dad has to talk trash and is having a hard time.  He needs to get in the groove.  I tell about the wrist bands and then I put on a silly  moose hat while dad tells about the animals.  The other two couples are better at telling their rules.  When the buses came up to camp I got all choked up seeing all of the young women.  I just hope and pray that I can be an instrument in the Lord's hands in influencing some of the girls.  I want them to know that the Lord loves them.  When you go through the gates to the camp there is such a beautiful spirit, you can really feel the difference.  The camp is sacred grounds set apart for bringing the testimony of the Lord and His love for everyone that comes to the mountain.

We see tons of deer, chipmunks, ground squirrels daily and some rabbits, and moose each week.  It is so fun.  I am still in awe at the Lord's creation.  The camp has come to life with leaves and colors.

Church is wonderful.  The spirit is awesome.

I want you all to know that I know that the Lord lives and loves all of us.  We have the truth and it is our responsibility to share that knowledge with everyone we see on a daily bases.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-dad Saints is the Savior's church here on the earth.  It is a guideline for us to follow showing us how to return worthy to our Father.  I love you all more than words can tell.  I pray for you all several times a day.  Be happy and keep smiling.  Love you tons.  Mom
