Quilts

 if you've ever slept over at my house,
you'll know,
my house contains many quilts and blankets.
i love them.
my grandmother is the greatest quilter and she'll currently teaching me the ways of the needle.
she even made me my own.
which i sleep with every single night.


does the journey seem long?

one of my new favorite leaders named jechelle was the ultimate picture taker at camp.
here are some of her stolen pictures.
(side note: lisa and i decided we're weren't going to take a cute or serious picture all camp)

three second after this picture, lisa was completely upside down trying to climb this wall
one of my favorite girls chloe as our emo. and lisa.. just being lisa.
my other favorite leader polly. this is our new true love symbol.
a coon snatched lisa's backpack in the middle of the night and we found it (because i spilled all of her nerds
underneath the table) with claw marks in it. good one coon.
see this lovely saran wrapping work?
allllll us.

Parents


because i have the best ones.

ain't no party like a 1st ward party cause a 1st ward party don't stop.

"i want kneaders french toast" "i want brownies" "i want a huge burrito from del taco"

"lacey when you get home. go get a little caesars pizza and bring it back"

"here, this is from your secret sister"
"oh thanks"
......
"is this a joke?"

"girls wake up" "girls" "girls it's time to get up" "shelbie" *grabs foot* "wake up" "who's that in the red bag? sydnee? you need to get up"



"hello ladies" sis sloat

"i swear whenever my mind wanders it always goes to 'does the journey seem long?'"

"WHO ZIP TIED OUR TENT? WAS IT YOU? I NEED TO KNOW. WHO ZIP TIED OUR TENT?"
"hi i'm the original sydnee merrell, and i did it."

"all day every day"

"that was real original second ward. get ready for a beating."



"girls you have to come down and see this, somebody from the third ward shrink wrapped our camp. it's hilarious."
"okay we'll come down in a second"
.....
"hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

"oh my goodness, i hate this cheer. lalalalalalalalalalala i can't hear it."

"at scout camps we always give the ones who gets hurt a nickname soo.. is it okay if we call you scar?"

"we had a really nice time cleaning up your toilet paper"

"i love that story"




i didn't have to attend girls camp. but i did. and i'm glad.

camps were toilet papered and saran wrapped.
walls were climbed.
toilets were snapped and tent zip tied.
friendships blossomed.
heads were wounded.
tears were shed.
testimonies were built.
and lives were changed.

the travel section

sometimes i go to barnes and noble,
and have no intention of buying any books.
the smell, the silence, the soft music, the aura of people gaining knowledge just makes me feel at ease.

i may or may not go to the travel section and sit in the middle of the aisle and read travel books.
like this one.
i wanted to buy it since i could actually use it, but i didn't.
i can't wait to see you.

my I.

regardless of what you say.
snow is the best.
