Oh The Places You'll Stand!
Girls Camp 2013
Girls Camp is right around the corner and I have been having all kinds of fun getting ready for it. This year’s theme goes along with the mutual theme of “Standing in Holy Places.” Our camp theme is a twist on Dr. Seuss’s book, “Oh, The Places You Will Go!” It’s “Oh, The Places You Will Stand!”
I am one of the leaders over the 4th year girls. I have been so excited about going to girl’s camp this year. I haven’t been to girl’s camp since I was 17. I have been surfing the web to find ideas to go along with our theme. I found so many and of course could not use them all, but I found some that were a must for me.
I found this twist on the book “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” on Jessica Herbert’s Blog, Sherbert Café. http://sherbertcafe.blogspot.com/2013/02/oh-places-you-stand.html. I absolutely loved it. I then found pictures from the story that I pasted to paint and added the words. This is how it turned out.
I added the names of the girls in my group to the end of the story to make it a little more personal. It was quite a stretch to get them all in.
I found this idea off of Pinterest. Where else would I go? I am so addicted to that site. Aren’t we all? I got this cool font (Green Eggs and Ham) that I am using for this blog from Pinterest. Anyway… I found these neat pill bottles with a cute little prescription for skittles geared towards Girls Camp. I decided to make these as one of my pillow treats. The site I got this from is http://burlapanddenim.com/category/church-stuff/yw-camp/. You can download the labels from this site. The label says that the quantity is 100, but I could only fit about 60 skittles in each bottle, so I’m going to give each girl a prescription for 1 refill.
Daughter of a King
I decided that I wanted to share one of my favorite books with the girls while at camp. This book is called “Daughter of a King” by Rachel Ann Nunes. This book was given to one of my daughters several years ago for her birthday from her Grandma. There is such a wonderful message in this book and it truly pertains to all of us. I wanted to have something to give the girls to go along with this. I have a whole bunch of these wooden squares left from a project I was doing last year, so I thought I could make a pendant out of them. I printed out the little message and mod podged them onto the painted wooden squares. After several layers of mod podge I put some resin on top and let dry overnight. I then drilled the holes and threaded onto some cord. I embellished with some beads.
I will have to let you know how these do at camp. Wish me luck.
This year in our Young Women's program we have a new theme that I absolutely love. It is "Come Unto Christ". I am loving all of the awesome sites out there that share such great ideas to go along with this years theme. I have been able to utilize many of the posts shared by other bloggers and I am so grateful for the ideas and insights. For this lesson on "What do we know about the nature of the Godhead?", I chose to make a power point due to the lack of ink in my printer. I know...sad right? What happened to good old pen and paper? Well I guess I have gotten pretty lazy with all of today's wonderful technology. Plus when I got started making this power point I found I was having a lot of fun. I will have to control myself in the future to not do all of my lessons on power point.

I wanted to share this power point with anyone who would like to use it, so feel free to copy it to your computer for your personal or classroom use.
I know with this months topic on the Godhead I have been learning quite a bit. This week I have been going over the materials from Come Follow Me's lesson on What are the roles of the Holy Ghost. I absolutely love the talks by Craig C. Christensen and Boyd K. Packer. I am so grateful for their testimonies and how it has strengthened mine.
