EFY
These lovely ladies got to spend an uplifting week at Especially for Youth at the BYU campus in Provo, UT. I tried to get Lauren to write this post for me by appealing to future Lauren, telling her how great it would be to look back on this post when she's old and all the memories she had of this week.
She was not interested....
INSTEAD you will be getting second hand info from me (as usual)
The mornings were started with a morningside. Some thoughts shared and spirits uplifted making each day open brightly. They went to classes most of the day, some fun, some spiritual, and most right in between. Cute boys were everywhere. Lauren's C.O.W (crush of the week) was a handsome young man named Ammon (pictured below). The best part, it seems, is that they were on their own, left to their own devices, minus the hovering parents......
So I'm sure it was a HUGE bummer when......

MOM and DAD show up!!!!
Jason, Jace and I drove up to Provo Friday night so we could pick up the girls early Saturday morning. As we suspected they were quite tired and a smidge grouchy. Afterall they had just had an amazing, carefree week then we show up, totally cramping their style! It's a long drive to not see at least a few sights: so we drove up to Bridal Veil waterfall, checked out the shell of the Provo Tabernacle soon to be Provo Temple, and made a stop at Cove Fort.

Adventures at Cove Fort
It was a quick trip to pick up the girls but I'm glad Lauren had to opportunity to go to EFY at the BYU campus. Hopefully we can do it all again next year!!
