Camp out!

Last weekend was the brownie & junior camp out for the girl scouts. The girls are getting older now, and it's fun to see how they've grown. There was a pool party and a midnight swim. We ate lots of burnt marshmallows, some inside smores. Made some crafts too. Water balloons galore, some of which may have been thrown or popped on yours truly. Here are some quotes from the lovely little ones:

"I'm making out with my marshmallow!"

"Frankenstein lived in a field full of flowers with a pet deer named Hippopotamus"

"I'll have a buzz-weiser"

"We're doing that dance... what's it called... that Michael Jackson dance!"

"You guys are too old for bathroom buddies! I bet they're just too good of friends..."

Plus all the calls of "EMILY!"

All the brownies bridged up to juniors, so now they're back together as one whole group. I'm going to miss them all next year. Even when they make fun of me. (I tripped a lot, over many different things.) Oh and a tip: don't try to put up other people's tents when they are not around, though it does give people watching some entertainment. And thanks to Sheila, she made it a wonderful event. 

La CanciĆ³n: Thriller by Michael Jackson. For the brownies, because they could not stop doing the thriller dance during the entire camp out; their way of acknowledging his death.

haha, that would be christa ;)

they were playing house at the playground and she was the mom. I was the neighbor, and she was stressed out so we were supposed to go have a drink of lemonade (or at least that's what i said). then christa ordered a blue moon, a buzz-wieser, and a few margaritas. then the rest of the brownies called her drunk and she tried to feed them margaritas. they tried to put her in the nutty house.
