Trek






June 11th-14th our stake went to the tri-cities for a trek. It was great experience. Wed. 5:00am we meet at the stake center to catch the buses. We then recieved our families. We has 8 kids. Surprisely most of the 18 ma's and ma 's didn't know anyone on their list. The stake leaders did a great job putting the kids into the families. This is a picture of our Family. On the first day we got sun, rain, high winds and it even helled. We were all pretty wet and cold. We made it to camp and had dinner then was told we had to move about 500ft. away. We were so close to the crops . The farmers were spraying cemicals on the fields. So we all had to pick and move. Everyone was in good spirits. We walked about 4 to 5 miles a day. We walked in brushes, weeds, dirt, mud, and more dirt. We were all very dirty.









Later on Wed. We had three people on horseback bring the youth letters from home. Most of the kids cried.
























This in our family walking to Zion.






Oh, Don't we look GREAT. Me in my funny looking Bounet. It was tooo big. So I got burned. Later I decided to use someone elses. I didn't care what I looked like towards to end. I was burned, Hot, and dirty. We had a great time. David looked handsome the whole time. We are so greatly for this wonderful experience. We feel very blessed.
