I have an announcement

Announcement, announcement, announcement
A horrible death to die,
A horrible death to die,
A horrible death to talk to death,
A horrible death to die.
Announcement, announcement, announcement.

Anytime, anyone has said announcement these past couple of of weeks, that little catchy tune that I used to sing at girls camp many, many years ago would run through my brain. This is something I haven't thought of in years!

I think I was being prepared for a new calling in addition to my Primary Music Leader job.

I was called to be the assistant/co camp director for our ward.

Wow! It's been 20 years since I've been. I LOVED girls camp and I'm quite sure I never really understood all the time that my leaders put in to making it successful. But these days they have themes and camp chefs and I'm sure a whole lot more that I'm not attuned to. I'm a little nervous.

But I am excited. Kiersten's excited. Ash is wishing she could go (you've got three more years girl).

(last year; I went after I graduated from high school)
 I'm still not exactly sure what my role is going to be. The actual camp director is going to be 8 months pregnant and the stake won't allow her to attend. I know I would hate to put in all the work and time that goes in to getting ready for girls camp and then not be able to see it carried out. I'll have to see just how much she really wants to be involved.

Although between me and you, I secretly want all the help she's willing to give me.
