Girls camp, seven peaks, and garden

This week Jessica had girl's camp. They went to a cabin near Heber. All the girls slept in one room that had a bunch of beds. Some of the girls had to sleep two to a bed, but Jessica got her own bed. The whole upstairs was one room where they slept, and it had a ping-pong table and an air hockey table. There was also a swing that Jessica enjoyed playing with. There was a jacuzzi, but it was dried up. They made bracelets and hairbands, and they had a devotional every morning and evening. Overall she had a great time.

On Saturday we went to Seven Peaks again. We went early, getting there a little after 10 in the morning. There were a lot less people and it was a lot more fun. Jessica and Katie hung out together for a while, riding a double tube. They played in the wave pool and went on several tube runs. Rebecca was generous and mostly stayed with Matthew. They played in the kids pool, the wave pool, and rested in the sun. Brent and Josh and Dad went on several slides with single and triple tubes, and also some without tubes. Josh and Dad went down one of the slides where there is a steep drop off, and you get air and feel like you are in free fall.

Rebecca and the kids also did a lot of work on the yard this week. They put in 5 fruit trees (2 apple, and a peach, pear, and apricot). We now have a total of 7, and we only have to wait several years before they produce fruit. Rebecca's also done a lot with the garden, planting corn, and she's also working on planting tomatoes, pumpkins, and other stuff. We haven't had much success with gardens here, but we're hoping this year will be different.
