Camping

In preparation for girls camp, Lia dyed the bottom of her hair red with all the other Beehives in the ward. I was assured it would come out after a few washes so I let her do it (which it mostly did, by the way, after A LOT of effort on Lia's part and then we still ended up cutting a few inches off the bottom afterward). She then wanted it braided for camp and thankfully we were at the Nelsons the night before so she had lots of helpers. While she was at camp, I let Laura and Megan and Josh sleep outside in our tent with our neighbors the Holleys and the Bronsons. They wanted to weeks before and I told them maybe they could while Lia was at camp as long as I slept out there with them. Well, I forgot about it, but Laura of course remembered and called me out on it. Jen slept out there with me, so it ended up being a fun night and I think the kids even got a little bit of sleep. We made scones the next morning and then cleaned up and got ready for the next weekend trip...the Barson reunion. Nate met us up there late that first night so he could wait for Lia to get home from camp. She was a little dirty and really tired, but she had a great time and I was so happy to see her again!
