We Went camping with Grandma Chandler and James and Melissa and their boys. It was way fun! Went over Pioneer Day weekend to the Alpine Loop area.

We also went to Lagoon! It was way fun! We were able to go with my whole family. Even my brother's fiancee came. We had a blast hanging out and getting to know one another better.

Here's Chance and I so excited to ride the first ride of the day! It always seems like we ride the old white roller coaster first no matter what.

My friends Katie and Paul Hill came up and we went to Progressive Tumbling with several of our other good friends from up here. We had the Hills, Gourdins, Bree, Thompsons, us, Amber and Cason, and Cason's friend. It was a lot of fun! :) We were so glad that the Hills were able to come up! We owe them a HUGE thanks for dinner as well! They took us to Goodwood! Thanks Katie and Paul! :)

The Thompsons and Gurrs were in charge of our wards youth conference this year. I was nervous to have to plan EVERYTHING at first, but it ended up being such an amazing experience and we grew so close to the youth in our ward! They are awesome! After much planning, we finally all agreed on doing the theme MASH, which stood for Modern Armies Serving Heaven. The Sunday before youth conference, we went to each youth's house and "drafted" them into the MASH army. We gave them a draft letter instructing them on what to bring and when they would need to report for duty, and we also gave them their MASH shirts. Here are the awesome leaders posing at the Albach's house just after drafting their daughters.

Youth Conference was a Thursday through Saturday at Strawberry Pinacles. It was a really pretty area to have it and worked perfect for our MASH themed youth conference. On Thursday, we had a guest speaker come and talk to the youth on how to be a good example and serve others.

On Friday morning we had breakfast (here were our pancakes made specially for the leaders by brother Winterton), but not until AFTER we woke the youth up at 6:30 that morning for drills. We ran a couple laps and did jumping jacks and other army drills. Then they ate and we got ready for our army obstacle course. We had several courses that they had to accomplish in their teams. We had a team A and team B. They did really good in their teams and after each obstacle the winning team was given a clue. The clues were a scripture that we used as the theme for youth conference and after the obstacles we gave them all dog tags and had a small thought moment. Then we had a 25 foot long slip and slide and played on that. Then we ate lunch and had free time to go and tube down the river, play in the water, or play on the rope swing.

Friday night we had skits then a small fireside. The next morning. We woke the youth up at 4:45am and we hiked up to one of the pinacles and got up there just in time for the sunrise and gave them all letters from their parents that they had written prior to youth conference. Then we had our testimony meeting! I thought this was the most memorable thing about youth conference! It was amazing! We had such a great time at youth conference and LOVED being the leaders!
