FSY (aka the week of Jake)

For the Strength of Youth camp was a great experience for Ali, Logan, and Eli. They all came home having made new friends, strengthened their testimonies, and tired!

It was Eli's first time going, and he loved it. I heard from him the least of all of them!

He spent a lot of his free time learning to swing dance with some new friends from his group.

Logan really enjoyed the boys in his company. He said they were a great group of guys, and they got really deep in conversations when it was just the guys especially. He's the only one of my kids who called me while they were gone!

Ali enjoyed the classes and the musical presentation her company took part in. She liked getting to know her company and growing friendships with kids in our ward.

Since Jake was the only kid at home, he and I did all the fun younger kid things he wanted to do. We went to Blackberry Farm, The Children's Museum, met a friend at Phillip's Park Pool, he had a magic class, we went to 2 different libraries, got him a bigger bike and went for rides, had a movie night picnic with a movie of his choice...it was great fun!

It was much quieter with all the teens gone, but it was good to have them come home at the end of the week. Grateful for a great FSY!
