Ashlyn got to attend girl's camp for the first time at 4 1/2 months old. Trevor was invited up by the young women for lunch and a testimony meeting with the bishopric. Ashlyn & I were invited to tag along. The boys were happy to spend the day at their cousin's house. Ashlyn was the BEST traveler, as usual. She is seriously SO good!
It was fun to get away together and spent some time up in the slightly (but not by much) cooler mountains. Visiting girl's camp brought back lots of fun memories of the times I spent there as a young woman. It is funny how easily you forget so much about what you have experienced in your life. I think my mind just turned to mush after kids. It gets worse after each one.
If you had told me that one day, my husband would be the bishop and he would voluntarily participate in ward functions, I would've laughed you right out of the building.
This is NOT the man I married! It is a good change though. I have been trying to drag him to ward functions for our entire marriage. Now I don't even have to ask. It's just implied that we will attend. One of the perks of his calling!
He is still so handsome, even covered in whipped cream!
The young women coerced Trevor into playing this whipped cream game where they squirt a pile onto their wrist, then pop it up in the air and for him to catch in his mouth. He was unaware of their secret plan. A number of them had hidden gobs of whipped cream in their hands and on the count of 3, while he was concentrating on catching the one he had planned on, they ambushed him. He was a good sport, even though he complained of smelling whipped cream for the rest of the day and I even found some the next day that had clogged a in the side of his glasses.
I am very grateful that my response was "NO THANK YOU" when I was asked to play.
I would not have been as good of a sport as Trevor!
After driving home, dropping off a few people, picking up the kids and staying to chat, we didn't get home until about 10:30. I was SO tired! It was a long, but fun day.
