Camp

Phil and I dropped the 3 older kids off at camp on Sunday at 4:30. Stephanie's counselor got her involved in a game of 'Duck, Duck, Goose' right away and the other two just wandered off to their cabin mates so Phil and I left while the leaving was good.

We picked Stephanie up this morning at 10:30. Then we took the long way home. We stopped in Tobias to play at the park and have a picnic. Then we drove home thru Western, Wilbur, and Claytonia before getting back to Lincoln.

Here is what Stephanie did at camp:

I rode a horse named Belle. She was yellow with a white mane.
I got to go in a canoe.
I went to a campfire and we got to sing.
We jumped in tires or else we would fall in the mud. And I fell in the mud a couple of times.
We were balancing on a log and the grown-ups helped me.
We had to fall backwards and the grown-ups caught us.
We did a balance beam and had to make both of the sides not touch the ground.
I got to go inside the petting zoo and pet two llamas (a brown one and a white one), a donkey, two cow babies, a mother cow, and lots of horses, and a baby horse.
And we went to the gift shop and the camp shop and I bought a cool fan!

There were 5 little girls like me in my cabin and we washed our feet in the water. There were leeches in the water so we had to do it fast. It was okay, no leeches bit me.

My counselor's name was Breanna. When I couldn't find my shoes at night and I had to go to the bathroom, she gave me a piggy-back ride.
