Gardner Get-a-way 2010!!

This year for our Gardner Getaway we camped for 5 days up at the Church owned young women's camp in Heber Valley. It was a beautiful camp with such a great spirit about it! Unfortunately, since it was so close to our homes in Utah we had people coming and going in to work each day. Next year we will definitely pick a place far from home so everyone is trapped!! Some of the "highlights" included: The Gardner cousins and Aunt Wendy visiting for a couple of days, challenge courses, canoeing on the lake, sand volleyball, campfires, good food, "minute to win it" games, crafts, and "Lord of the flies" hideout that kept the little boys occupied for the WHOLE week, Mom and Cheryl's birthday and the best of all was the blessing of little Curen!
