But what a production it was getting everything ready!! First there was a trunk (because you can’t just have any old trunk)! I found a website called Everything Summer Camp and was able to get a really cute pink & purple trunk. Then I had someone local make vinyl stickers of her name and decorations. I think it turned out very cute and Avery was happy to be a part of it by putting on the stickers herself (it was hard for me to let go of that but I did). 
I was very anxious to see pictures and get a letter (all of which come via the Pine Cove app). It was definitely a sense of relief to see the pictures and her letters were sweet.
She looked so hot & tired in all the pictures. It’s been about 110 degrees here in Texas so I don’t know how they did it???
On the ride home she was pretty quiet but said she loved it. And then the poor thing had to come home and play in her last basketball game of the season. She was dead. I made her take a super long shower and I started what seemed like 6000 loads of laundry. She requested sushi for dinner so we ordered in and then she crashed!! She said her bed never felt so good! All in all she had a great time and is already looking forward to next year. And I think I see a light at the end of the laundry tunnel! 😜
Then we had to fill that sucker! Theme nights, clothes, shoes, etc. All in different baggies to help keep organized (for someone who loves organizing it would be a dream- but that is not me!). We had to have care packages done, letters written, everything done before we left for camp. And of course I had to work ALL day the Saturday before so I had to have everything done a week ahead of time. But I did it!
We caravanned down with some friends and got in the giant line for drop off.
We got her bunk set up and then it was time to leave. She was so brave and there wasn’t a single tear (not even from me!).
Poor Hayden was SO sad the whole way home. She really missed her Sissy. 😢

A week went by and my house seemed so quiet. Why does 1 less kids make such a difference???
Pick up day came and I was so happy to see her!!! Her counselor said really sweet things about her and she had such a great week!
