Book of Mormon Camp Fun - a.k.a Scripture Scouts Camp

-
We are having fun this summer with a few of our friends doing a Book of Mormon themed camp.  Each week we get together to learn about a Scripture Hero from The Book of Mormon, do some fun outdoor crafts and games to help us learn more about our Scripture Hero, talk about why our weekly Hero is so special, eat a yummy snack, and play with our friends. 

What a wonderful way it has been to spend a morning having fun, learning about from the Scriptures, playing with friends, and feeling the Holy Ghost.  I'm so grateful for the inspiration I received from the Holy Ghost to do this fun activity this summer. We'll for sure have to do this again next Summer!
 
Hunting Stuffed Animals in the Backyard
Last week we made bows and arrows with rubber bands and pencils so we could go hunting like Enos and then played a few games to learn more about might, sincere prayer. Target practice with our newly made weapons was tons of fun for everyone.  Of course we had to end our day with a yummy snack of ice cream prayer sandwiches.  :)

It's been a bit of a warm and dry winter, until our latest epic snow storm!!  We didn't get as much snow as high elevations, but I'm happy with 9 inches in 3 days.  Diana is all in when it comes to playing in the snow, the little boys have been busy as beavers digging snow forts, and Maeve has found that digging out snow paths with her friend Lilly is a great way to "chill" during the afternoon.  :D  The big kids have been busy helping Dustin and I keep the street shoveled out.  Dustin wakes up early every morning to use my Dad's snow plow to clear all of the sidewalks on our street  before the kids have to walk to school. The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
