Kathryn is 12!!!!

We have entered the youth program at church - Kat is 12 and loves it!!! At 12 the kids enter the youth program (Young Women's or Men's YW/YM for short) and their activity schedule doubles :). She's excited for girl's camp this year, and has already had lots of fun with YW activities. They've had a sleepover, service projects, and other fun stuff. Overnight she went from being a kid to fitting the label - Young Woman. Birthday cake with family.
The other Young Women in our ward made posters to decorate our door with on her birthday. There are bees and beehives on it because the 12-13 year old group are called the Beehives.


This was her birthday party - two great friends over for a PJ movie party
(ended at 11pm 'cause Mom has a no sleepover rule).

Her first activity as a YW - a stake pre-TREK activity. Youth Conference this year was a re-enactment of the 'trek' west made by Mormon pioneers with handcarts. Trek was only for youth 14 and up, but everyone was included in this pre-Trek hike. It was really fun to be able to be with her. Gregg and I were invited as well because we were asked to be a Ma and Pa on Trek - more to come on that in future posts.
