I am writing to you from the one safe place in my house right now. I have sought refuge from a raging beehive... several of them. Annie is hosting a slumber party for the beehives tonight. I remember when she first told me, I thought: 8 beehive girls how bad can that be. Aren't those the ones that just sit quietly and read scripture... or if they are not doing that, aren't they reading to old ladies or something? Well I am finding out tonight what they really do when they are not reading scripture. And the answer is shocking. They do everything that 12 and 13 year old boys do.... destroy (my house), scream (at each other), and terrorize (the dog)... I dare say they are even worse than the boys (this has a lot to do with pitch and aggression). For now I have found a safe place... buts just until they find me...

I agree with you 100%. When they slept over at our house, I thought the cops were going to show up and try to bust up the party. I'm sure Parker still has doggy nightmares of packs of wild twelve year girls chasing him.
Oh Annie, I would have LOVED to have you as MY Beehive advisor. I bet they just love you.
Good thing you guys are young and resilient. Remembering my self as a beehive i know first hand how wild that age can be.
You two rock! I'm sure Annie is way on top of the coolest leader list. I thought I remembered what Beehives were like (I mean, I was one once, right?) and then I taught them and realized what an old fart I've become.
Run!!
HA Ha...poor Jake. Although, fear defined is sending your son to scout camp knowing they will be making not just fires but BONFIRES!
Annie we missed you at Book Club!!!
It is still my favorite place to be serving in the church.... the young women!!! I never had the Beehives though. Enjoy ! Mom
Annie, I love seeing all the delicious things you post about on your food blog. Ha Ha. But seriously, when are you going to do something with it??? I check every day and still nothing :(
I just hope your home owner's insurance covers acts of church youth! I've been on plenty of young men's campouts and activities to know that they get rowdy. But all the jokes and pranks they pull pale in comparison to what carnage and mayhem that young women are capable of. If you don't have a panic room already, then I suggest you build one before the next activity!
That's nothing Jake, last summer we had the entire yw's at my house painting finger nails, watching movies, annoying Josh to no end and then Josh freaked out at like 2 am.... Um, we aren't ever doing that again :)
