Birthdays Galore, Scout Camp

June is the month of Birthdays in the Hill-Mulford Family! It gives us pause to be grateful for every single one. Our first birthday was Emily's on June 7. We really celebrated that she is no longer a teenager! She and Ben are very VERY happy as a married couple. She is attending summer term at BYU and he is studying for the LSAT.

Cam got his favorite breakfast in bed for his 10th birthday on June 10. He enjoyed his turnovers immensely. Cam enjoying life and has decided to take brake dancing lessons. He is amazing!


We really whooped it up at his birthday party. All of the Utah County siblings were there along with two of his best friends, Joseph and Max. We celebrated by going to UP as a first run feature. We took the whole row in the movie theater!



I am now deacons quorum advisor. As a perk I got to take Seth to Scout camp this week at Scofield Resevoir.



We loved our experience but the weater was raining and cold a lot of the time. Our tent, however, kept us dry and as long as we wore three layers of clothing it kept us warm too.




The sun finally came out on Friday and were happy about it. Seth is also smiling because he earned six merit badges and one partial. He now has 12 merit badges and doesn't turn 12 for another three months.




Here is a group shot with all the boys, excited






Our farewell dinnner was of dutch oven ribs, and Seth loved every bite.

We love June birthdays too! Happy Birthday to Emily and Cam (and to Ryan tomorrow)!

The Dutch oven ribs sound really good -- we are in the market for good Dutch oven recipes.

Way to go on your merit badges, Seth! Are you allowed to get your Eagle before you turn 12 too? :)

We love you all, Jenny and Aaron

Looks like everyone is having a good time. We're in the market for a good Dutch oven... and then we can think about recipes.

Doesn't it seem like every time there is a scout camp, it rains? I wonder what the percentage is... Have a great summer. We're looking forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks.

Lovely birthday share! Everyone has their own way of celebrating such days with love and affection. We are thinking to go for event venue Atlanta for y brother's birthday dinner. Evening starters followed by soups and then cake cutting will be done. Later sumptuous dinner will be served. Dessert ideas will all be common types.
