YoutH ConFerencE 2009

This year's Youth Conference theme was S.M.I.L.E. (Spiritually Minded is Life Eternal) Our Stake Youth Committee worked with Gastonia Stake Youth Committee and planned a wonderful conference. Zach had the opportunity to be a part of that and really enjoyed it. I was not good at remembering my camera so I did not get pictures of the service project and a few other activites. They had 2 dances one formal and one casual. They had a day of Workshops... Defences Against the Dark Arts taught by Br. Nanto, An Ultimate Asset, Bro Barker, Missionary Preparation by 2 recently returned missionaries, and "Living His Life" twist on the Living My Life song by Steve page. I must say he did an excellent job! They were all great. Their service project was a carnival for the kids of Boys and Girls club. It was great fun and they had about 250 kids come. It was alot of work but the kids pulled it off and did a great job. Tory was such a good sport this weekend as we took care of YC, Chaperoning, and all of Steve's bishop responsibilities. Thanks so much Tory. It really helped to not have to worry about you.

Zach and Jenica are so funny together. They were dancing and Jenica tries to dip Zach. I think she actually dropped him on the dance floor! She is so fun.

I have great kids! It was wonderful being able to be with them at YC. Although Abby did keep her distance....I believe its a girl thing....non of my boys were ever like that!

Those two really love each other!
