"Best Week Ever"

We were at Camp Crosley by 9 a.m. this morning to pick up Meg and Cam.  We were one of the first ones there and thrilled to see them.  It has been strange to have them gone all week, and I really missed them.  Cam was ready to go when we got him.  He had had a lot of fun, but his allergies/asthma really bothered him, so he needed a break.  Meg also had fun, but had absolutely no interest in leaving.  We weren't surprised as that is her reaction every summer.  We spent time at the camp store before we left to pick out their new shirts.  

On the way home they both talked non-stop about everything that they did.  I don't think Doug or I said much at all or even needed to ask questions.  They filled us in on everyday and every activity.  They hadn't seen each other a lot, so they had a lot of questions to ask one another.  There also was a new pond with some awesome activities that we couldn't wait to hear about.  Meg got a lot of phone numbers of her cabin mates and promised to text one as soon as she got home.  

Unpacking is always daunting, but this year it was a lot easier.  Meg did a great job keeping her items organized and dry.  This made the process go faster.  I still washed everything they take to camp and dried what I could just to get rid of the cabin smell and make sure no insects followed them home.  They both had food and candy left.  Their new shower caddies worked very well for them both.  

Glad that we have been able to provide this experience for them.  They have both enjoyed it very much over the years.  There is always something new each year and I know they will remember going for the rest of their lives.
