Summer Camp & Utah 2011



This summer I went to two different camps. Scout camp and a service camp at Birch Creek Ranch in Spring City, Utah. We did service at the ranch and in the community for the first 4 hours of each day, then the rest of the time we did arts and crafts, reading, hiking, camping, water sports and I also worked on writing my book quite a bit. It was an awesome experience!! I hope to go back every year and eventually be a camp counselor. Being away from my family for 3 1/2 weeks wasn't so bad, but I was ready to come home by the time it was over. I met a lot of cool guys there and my dad's friend Adam Bateman (the director) was really fun to hang out with too.

My grandparents flew in from Texas to drive to Utah with my family to pick me up, it was fun showing them around the camp and then spending 4 days at my Uncle Jeff's house.


We had a great time camping with the cousins and making a movie.



We also had a barbecue with our extended family including my Great Grandma Betty. I got to see her new assisted living home and all her new friends. I miss my family and love going to Utah.

Fathers & Sons

This weekend I went to the Fathers & Sons Outing. We had a lot of fun. We went to the lake and rode canoes. It was a blast and my dad even knocked a tree down. Today is my green belt graduation and I'm going to be a purple belt. I also finished my second work & the glory book last night.

Mother Nature Bring It On!!!

This week we went camping at Aspen, Arizona. We had tons of fun with our friend's the Winsor's and the Cooley's. We saw many creatures and got many mosquito bites along with killer sun burns. At Woods Canyon Lake we went fishing and caught some Crawdads...later we cooked em up and ate them! My favorite parts were going fishing with our new pole, sitting by the fire and roasting marshmallows.
