Lily's Summer Camp--Aloha Hive in Vermont!

Lily started asking me about going to summer camp on Thursday, July 16th.   None of my other children have ever gone to a sleep away camp...they have ereally barely gone to day camps, really. But Lily is different.  She is my youngest, and there are several years between my 4th, Matthew, and Lily.    So, long story short, within 48 hours, Lily, Timmy, Anna, and I were driving up to Vermont to drop her off at her new camp/home for the next 12 days, Aloha Hive in Vermont.

Here are some photos:

  I love these necklaces they give the girls...they act like name tags, and are so cute...

                                   Here's another one of Lily, because she is so adorable!!

  

                                    This is Lily's tent family, as they call themselves...

 And this is Lily standing in her tent...it is very rustic, to say the least.  There are flaps to pull down in case it rains, but otherwise, it is just open.  I don't know that I have ever slept out so openly with nature!

 This was Lily walking away as we were getting ready to leave.  She was waving for me to leave.

We got one postcard/letter from Lily, which made it sound like she really missed me, but all the photos of her on the website show her beaming...I am sure she is loving it!    We are leaving today to go up to Vermont to get her....I can't wait to hear how it went!!
