Overnight Camp

Earlier today we dropped Alexis off at camp. For the last 2 years she has gone to this overnight camp for two weeks. Last year when we dropped her off Marissa and I were crying our eyes out and Alexis was smiling the whole time! I thought this year would be a bit easier since we had already gone through it once. I was WRONG! It was a little different this time around though. Alexis was getting teary eyed before we left the house this afternoon, but was fine on the ride over and once we got there, but again Marissa and I were crying when she walked away. It's funny because she will only be gone for 2 weeks and we both know that, but we don;t get to see her during that time and there are no phone calls either, only letters back and forth. If this goes anything like last year it will be us writing her every single day and we get one little post card from her that the camp makes her send to let us know she is all settled in. She has promised to write us this year, but I have a feeling she will be way to busy for that. The camp has a ton of stuff to do.

























I know Alexis was a little upset leaving us for 2 weeks, but just like she always does.. she managed to have a smile on her face so no one else would get upset!
























This was Marissa as we were just about to leave the camp... so upset that she would barely even look at me to get a picture, I looked just about the same way though.
