The Hale Family: Girls Camp

Girls Camp

August 10, 2008

July also brought girls camp. We had a blast!! Our girls are so awesome!

My camp director, April, is on my right and Nanette, my 1st counselor is on my left.
They are wonderful women and so fun too. I think we had more fun than the girls did. Tee Hee!
The girls thought we leaders were so silly most of the time. There were some serious moments though. Here is one...trying to be a grown-up!

Thank you, thank you to my wonderful friends who took my babies so I could go to camp. You saved me. Thank you, thank you to Joe for cleaning the house before I got home! Yipee!! Am I lucky or what?? What a great man. Things were so in order when I got home that I have decided I need to leave town more often.

I was the YW pres in my last ward and I would find myself thinking it wasn't all that long ago I was a young woman myself, and now I was supposed to be the leader. Girls camp especially brings it out in ya because that little girl comes out and you just want to BELT OUT camp songs and be GOOFY girls-just like in the old days!! It was always great to have fun leaders. It definitely made me thankful to MY YW leaders and what they had done for me all those years. It is not an easy calling-that is for sure, but worth every minute of it! I bet your girls have SO much fun with you. You are such a great example!; September 12, 2008 at 5:43 AM

I grew up in Mesa AZ and Joe in Farmington UT. I knew Joseph's uncle and grandma in Mesa and between the two of them they were bound and determined to set me up with Joseph who was "also a singer and would be perfect for me". The only problem was that he lived in Utah. Soon after, I left for BYU and ended up meeting him at callbacks for The Young Ambassadors. That next year we ended up as dance partners in Young Ambassadors. We became best friends, but dated other people until we finally got it together and started dating each other. We were engaged in Singapore on tour, and married 3 months later. We left for rehearsals 3 weeks later and worked on Holland America Cruise Line as guest entertainers for a year. We traveled to Hawaii, Mexico and Alaska. We went back to BYU for our final year of school and graduated with degrees in Music Dance Theater. Princess Cruise Line hired us as guest entertainers and we traveled for 6 months with them to the Mediterranean and the Caribbean. We then decided to move to New York where we lived for a year and performed in 2 tours. One day Joe woke up and told me he was going to be a dentist, so we changed gears. We have two amazing children, Brynnley and Jaden, who keep us as crazy as everyone else on this journey of parenthood. Wouldn't change a thing! Here we are finished with dental school and on to "real" life in Arizona. We have had an amazing journey in these 12 years, and it's only going to get better!!
