Ward Campout

Ward campout at Hukilau beach! Beautiful weather and less than a mile from where we live.

Playing soccer on the beach. Alden scores a goal!

They taught us how to weave a bowl out of palm leaves for dinner!
Whenever we have any type of ward gathering this is what we eat.... lots of meat and rice.
The steak was a little to rare for me but all the food was delicious. The boys especially were in heaven.

Everyone got to take they're turn scrapping the inside of the coconut to get the "meat" out. Everyone was timed. Alden did the whole thing in 1:52.... it took six girls (me included) 9 minutes to do ours. The fastest was a Polynesian girl who did the whole thing in 19 seconds! It was very impressive.

We had a really great time getting to know people, playing games, and learning more about the Polynesian culture. Our bishop is the best. Yay for ward camp outs!

Sorry about the crummy pics. We didn't bring the camera so we only had our phones :)
