Day Two - The Most Funnest Day EVER!!!*

*According to Gia, this was the most funnest day ever!

I'm going to have to split day two into a couple of posts. So much fun and so many photos!
Darn this blog anyway - as for some reason it won't let me split the photos and text. No matter how I post, the blog insists on posting all the photos first. If anyone can tell me how to change this, I'd appreciate it!!

The day started with the raising of the Camp Sweetie-Pie flag....a solemn occasion while Staff Anne played Reveille on the kazoo. Then they're out of the starting gate for Camp Calisthenics lead by Staff Joe. And as this year's Camp Sweetie-pie theme is It's All About Art, he gave the kids a watercolor class.

Today's surprise on the camp schedule just said, 'The Hokey Pokey'. What is the Hokey Pokey?? We told the kids to put on old clothes that could be thrown away afterward then attached a sheet to the lawn using landscaping U's of wire. Then each kiddo was given a container of paint - a different color for each kid with instructions to paint the sheet, but using only themselves. No brushes! Poor Ethan never did like to get dirty - and he hasn't changed. He tentatively put his hands in the paint and added a few handprints to the sheet but that was it for him. He watched while Eva and Gia really got into it - an allout PAINT WAR! Fortunately, the Camp Compound has an outdoor shower!

Next post will be the afternoon activities.
