The Parade.

TOOOODAAAAAY WAS THE PARAAAAADE!

But let's rewind.

Two days ago, we had changeover day and said goodbye to many beautiful people and hello to many more! Then we got our bathing suits on immediately and went to SOMEONE'S house for a pool party, which was incredibly nice and we tried really hard not to poop in the pool. We think that we succeeded.

During the pool party, we talked about what we all wanted to be for the parade, and decided on all of our LONDON OLYMPICS 2012 costumes and floats! Then the campers got all bundled in their beds and the counselors made a lot of coffee and got down to work. We spent almost all of the 3rd working on the parade, and it was so worth it!! Here are a billion pictures of...everything; prep to parade.

Our kitchen chairs are not quite as orderly as they should be, nor have beds been made quite as neatly, since Emily has been away from home.
We miss you Emily!! So glad to see you are having a blast!!!
