YM Camp Out

On November 7th and 8th I went on my first camp out with the Young Men as a member of the presidency.  It worked out well because Caitlin flew to San Diego to run a race called the She Runs Half Marathon.  I've added some pictures from the race.  Caitlin did awesome!  The camp out was pretty fun!  We went up north past Saguaro Lake to our campsite.  The activity up there was wrist-rocket paintball.  We all had protective face masks so it was safe and we shot each other with paintballs.  It was pretty fun.  I didn't take very many pictures during the camp out though.  First, here are a couple pictures from Caitlin's race -
The course looked pretty fun!  It wasn't all on paved roads.

Here are the pictures from what I was up to during the weekend -
One of the other presidency members, Erik.  One of the first things he did when we got there was climb this tree.  A ym climbed it afterwards and fell out and it was a pretty far drop.  He didn't get hurt though.
The campfire!  We made some pretty good S'mores once the fire died down a bit
On Saturday when we got back from the camp out, Caitlin was still gone in San Diego so I went to our friend's birthday party by myself.  The part was for Brock and it was a flannel themed party.  The invitation for the party was really funny.  It was a fun party, here are some pictures -
The flannel selfie I sent to Caitlin
There were lots of treats at the party including these maple-bacon cupcakes
Eating more S'more with the Johnsons and the Costas around the fire pit.

  2. Go Caitlin for running in that race! And it looks like the YM campout was fun, especially for the kid that fell out of the tree. ;) Love you guys and your updates!
