April Random Happenings, Part II (Elisa's Camp Surf)

 A continuation of the last post...more April happenings!

April 21
I made a blueberry pie using ready-made crust and just blueberries I found for sale at the grocery store. I'm kicking myself for not printing out the recipe, because this pie sure turned out delicious!

Erik and I got last-minute tickets to go to the Millennial choir concert via his friend Dan. This concert was very patriotic, a few months ahead of 4th of July! Of course, it was amazing. Next year's performances will be a little different; Millennial choir is teaming up with the Men's trio Gentri to perform Messiah in America. Erik has auditioned to be in the choir, we will see if he makes it in!

The Youth had a special sacrament meeting in which they did most everything: talks, prayers, and music. Elisa and Gabe sang in the choir, and Gabe even accompanied the congregation on the piano for the sacrament hymn. He did a great job!

Another delicious pie made by yours truly. This time it was strawberry. I was trying to use up the cheap pie crust we had bought a few months prior before their expiration date.

April 29-May 1
Elisa went on her class field trip to Camp Surf in California. Gabe went last year and had a good time, and Elisa also had a good time! Mostly because she got to hang out with her good girlfriends. Her friend Jayde's mom was a chaperone and kindly sent me a few pictures. 
 Waiting for her friend to come pick her up at 5:08 am. At least this wasn't as an ungodly hour as 3am like Gabe's was last year. Elisa was anxious because they came a little later than they said they would.

Eating. Elisa said the food wasn't so good.

Rock climbing. Elisa got all the way to the top! She usually does. She has always like crawling on top of stuff ever since she was a toddler.

On the bus home!Elisa is sitting behind her bffs Kassidy and Jayde, who are sitting behind Jayde's mom.

  1. Millennial Choir looks really good. Congrats to Erik for getting in. It's great that the youth provided the whole Sacrament Meeting and for Gabe as the pianist for the hymns. The pies look delicious! What fun it must have been going to Camp Surf in CA. Elisa has had lots of practice on the ship climbing walls.
