Me and a wonderful friend of mine, Lisa James, have the opportunity to plan and purchase the entire menu for the Youth Trek in June. We have decided to do dutch oven meals. So in an effort to provide yummy food for the 300 youth and leaders of our stake, we get together and make different meals. This was one of those evenings. We prepared a chicken enchilada casserole, corn bread and cobbler. Our girls are inseparable and as I said in a previous post, they get together whenever they can. They had been together for two days straight planning and preparing a play for us all to watch. So when we got together to do the dinner, it was the perfect time to watch the wonderful production they had worked so hard on. They got all the chairs ready for the adults to sit and watch. I don't even know how to describe what the play was about. It was the most hilarious, confusing, chaotic productions that we had ever seen. I wish that I had the video...I will have to get that from Lisa. But we all just kept looking at each other and laughing because we were so confused! The play consisted of a Queen (Kassadi), a Princess (Kate), a Narrator (Ellie), a Thief (Sara), a Fashion Designer (Halle) and the Paparazzi (Olivia) Ryan was in it too, but wasn't sure what he was! They wanted to start over...but unfortunately we didn't have the time. What we did capture on video was really funny. Olivia wasn't in the play but she kept jumping up and down with a camera like a little paparazzi. They were all adorable and I can't wait to show them the video when they are older. They will get a good laugh out of it.
They made these fun masks for the play, but decided not to use them. I thought they were so cute!
The kids were desperate to get their first dip of the year. The James turned up the heat in the hot tub and although it was still cold, the kids had to get in.
Olivia just kicked around on the edge. She wasn't as crazy as the other kids.
Kassadi daring Ellie to jump in...even though she didn't jump in herself. The water in the pool was a cool 75*.
Halle and Kate jumping in. It was really funny because they were in and out so fast!
Hanging out in the hot tub. It was a bit warmer than the pool. Hey look...It's Kyle! He joined us for a family activity. It was great having him around.
Thanks James family for being such fantastic friends. We love love love you all!
