Update on Charlotte - Week 1

Charlotte's camp has a place where parents can see photos taken around camp each day. I scan them eagerly each day to see if I can catch a glimpse of Charlotte. This is what I've found for the first week.

Here is the official CAMP 1 photo, which includes the campers and counselors from Charlotte's cabin and the one next door. Charlotte is just to the right in the front row, with the bottom of her blue flip flops showing.


Looks like Charlotte has had an opportunity to go kneeboarding, one of her favorite things. No doubt she was happy to tell them all about how "experienced" she is!


Although I haven't seen a shot of her on a boat, I'm guessing this is what she's about to do in the photo below. You only see girls with this type of life jacket if they are sailing. Something new for her!


These are the girls from her cabin. Charlotte is front and center again (in blue ruffle suit), as usual!


Arts and crafts are always one of her favorite things to do. Looks like some necklace making below? I think they may be using shark teeth as pendants. There's a special pit where the kids can sift for them. Of course, the first thing I thought was, why is she wearing that dress as a coverup? It's a nice one and supposed to be for wearing to the weekly dance. Sigh.

{That's her friend Anna on the right, one of the MANY other blondes. I swear, I am having to look so closely to recognize my own daughter in half the pictures.}


Looks like a party, and Charlotte loves nothing more than a little face paint.


Wearing her nightgown, posing in the light of the evening sun, Charlotte is hugging up with a new friend and a counselor. Makes me smile!


That white band around her neck designates her swimming level and where and how she is allowed to swim. My friend works for the camp and was down there this week and saw Charlotte. She said Charlotte was SO proud of doing well on the swim test to get the white band, which I imagine is a good thing. Go Charlotte!
