A couple of tough guys.
Rich and I were in charge of our ward's Youth Conference this last weekend. We had such a great time.
The kids on the river.
CHEESE!!
The kids were awesome, and there were minimal catastrophes. (Which is pretty impressive when you take 18 teenagers camping!) The worst one was one of our Young Women falling into a bee's nest and being stung 10 times! Yikes!

Rich tubing on a dinky green tube.
The Cook-off
We had the kids chopping and carrying wood for a service project, running relay races and egg tosses, pitching in on a cook off breakfast (young men against young women), tubing down a river, launching water balls, we watched a slide show of the weekend, filled a time capsule, had a testimony meeting and a great speaker, and so many other activities! 
Discussing egg tossing strategy
Balance is everything.
Professional Water ball shooters. (They launched sooo far!)
We were exhausted when we got home and are still trying to recover, but I think it was worth it! The kids all seemed to enjoy it and they grew closer as friends.
