Family Discovery Camp Day 1



The girls have been excited for months about getting to go to the MS Family Discovery Camp. October 14th we pulled the girls out of school early, and Mimi and Papa came over to watch Hayden (he has to be 6) for the weekend. After getting all loaded up we headed to Burton Texas to Camp for All!! Once we arrived we were greeted by some very friendly and entergetic people. They got us checked in and our luggage put in the right spot. We went inside and signed up for some activities and got our camp shirts. Then headed out to our cabins I was 11, Shane was 12 and the girls were 15. Our luggage was already waiting inside the cabins for us. We picked our beds and helped the girls get everything situated for the weekend. Did I mention how excited they were??? After getting situated and beds made, we headed back to the main entrance for dinner. We ate, walked around got ready for the "fireless" campfire smores and entertainment. Hannah volunteered for EVERYTHING!! It was cute. She got out in front of everyone and danced with the Staff (who were amazing AWESOME!). They taught her a dance and then she performed it with them. Then she volunteered again and she had to twirl these ribbons to a song. She did so good and everyone thought she was adorable. I was proud of my little girl. She was the youngest camper this year :) Hailey got out and danced a little with Daddy and at the end of the night, she twirled the ribbons as well. She thought it was so fun.
We ate yummy smores and danced and just had a good time getting to know eachother. After the "fireless" bonfire, the girls went with their Cabin Leader and they played games, made ribbon twirlers and what not. Shane and I went inside and played bingo with the other adults. We ended up winning a Cars ball set for Liam. Score!! LOL Then about 11 we headed in for the night. The women in my cabin talked for hours, so I didnt get to bed until about 2 and woke up at 5:30 or 6 due to people taking showers and banging around. Ugh!!! It was a fun first night though. I met some really nice women in the 2 1/2 hour talk session :)
