Camp

Proof of life

July 26, 2019

So, camp posts photos online around noon each day. I might or might not start refreshing my screen over and over every day around 11:30!! It’s then a fun game of scrolling through 700+ photos to try and find one glimpse of Maxwell! This is what I’ve gotten so far…

Cabin 4!

Football!! In a sweatshirt – he has to be loving that mountain air! Can you spot him?

Oh man I miss him but seeing him having so much fun is the very best!!

Then we got a letter in the mail yesterday!! Woohoo! He wrote it on his first full day there – he passed the swim test! yay! He got blobbed “super high”! yay! And, not surprisingly, he misses Samantha the most. I love him as much as he loves Samantha.

Have a great weekend!!

On Sunday morning we were walking out of the hotel by 7:15am to get to camp!! After a stop at the McDonald’s drive through we were 16th in the car line for camp!

We quickly moved up the hill, the trunk caddies took our trunk out of the car, and then we got the rest of the stuff to Cabin 4!!

It was a bluebird day in Tuxedo, NC!

Samantha made a friend in Lulu the camp dog! Who woulda thought?!

After a quick visit to talk to the nurse at the infirmary and a trip to the camp store to buy a t-shirt and a Crazy Creek chair, it was time for us to go.

There were lots of hugs but no tears (I won’t mention the huge lump in my throat all day long.)

I tried to get a cute pic of my 3 but then Spencer bumped his head trying to get to the picture and this is all I got! oh well…seems fitting! Please notice Samantha’s hand on Lulu the dog!
