YW Campout

We had our annual Father-Daughter Campout with the YW this weekend. We went back to Lake Almanor and enjoyed a campsite right on the water's edge. Our theme this year was "We Love our Pops!"



On Friday night we enjoyed dinner, dessert, campfire stories, songs, and games. The girls and dads competed in a relay race where the girls had to cut out a sport article from the newspaper that their dad liked and tie a tie on them, while the dads had to paint the girls fingernails and put their hair in a ponytail.


We were also able to have each girl and their father write and share why they were special to each other. It was a lot of fun and very sweet to hear the girls and dads talk about each other. Here are Andrea's and Aaron's responses to each other.




The next day we enjoyed breakfast together with spiritual messages from each of the dads and then we enjoyed the lake. We had a canoe and kayak that the girls were able to use.



The weather was perfect and the lake was beautiful. We can't wait to do it again next year!
