Happy 4th of July!!! I was looking back, and saw that I have a bit to catch up on:)
I guess I could start with last week. Last week was Girls Camp (Was it really only last week!?!) WE went to Navajo Lake, and had a great time. It did rain ion us on Thursday and Friday, but other than that it was great. We went on a bike ride (Navajo Lake trail) that was really fun. We went on a hike that was also way fun and challenging:) I think that the most spiritual thing that I did was a Hold to the Rod activity. My great leaders had made a trail that was like walking through Lehi's dream, They had a Great and Spacious building (The bathroom), they had a river (Tarps that they laid on and tried to got you to help them/pull you off while walking across a log) Them they put blindfolds (Mist of Darkness) on us and put our hands on "The iron Rod" (A rope tied between trees) and had us walk holding to it while they tried to per sway us to let go and follow them. At the end the had music playing, a pine tree that they had decorated with the fruit (Temple Paper Molds). It was really fun and cool.
After Girls camp I had some unexpected things happen. On Monday I got a call from C.W. saying that she was trying to leave town - back to where Koda is from - and that if I wasn't going to ride him she could take him back until the beginning of October, or we could see if we could work out a deal from C.J. to see if we could keep our horses there, since the horses didn't have shade, and Koda's owner said I could only keep him if he had shade. So I called C.J. to see what I could do. I Learned that she needed someone to muck out stalls, and that I could trade work for boarding. So I said that that was awesome, and that I could start this week. Well I didn't know that It would be so much, I have to pay $100 each horse per month. and I need to work of 3 horses at $125 a month at $5 and hour. So I am trying to work that off.
On Tuesday, I had a neighbor call and ask if I could start making cookies for her, and that she wanted 6 dozen cookies to begin with for her freezer:) I Haven't finished working it out with her though.
Finally to this weekend. Yesterday We spent preparing for a community party, including a "The Stars and Stripes 5k Stride", Breakfast and games. We also had a flag raising ceremony for a flag that Mom has been helping with for a scouts eagle project, and they also dedicated the other 28 Eagle Projects. YAY!!!
Today, we got up early, and went and set up the Race stuff, helped with the breakfast stuff, and was ready for registration at 6:00. The race was good, but there was a problem with the computer, so it took a long time to get the results, and to get the Awards Ceremony:(, other than that it was a good success. We had only 30 Pre-register, and finished the race with 55 Participants registered. So I think that it went pretty good.
Thats all for now:)
