OSS

Hailey went to Outdoor Science Camp for 5 days in Wrightwood with her 5th grade class.  I signed up to be a chaperon and got chosen but Hailey said she didn't want me to go.  Fair enough, I respect her wish and really have no desire to sleep on a hard bed.  She packed her bag a week before the trip and every night before bed she would say, "I can't wait for OSS!"  She's heard so many great things about the trip.  Whatever you pack you have to be able to carry, good thing she's strong.

Hailey at breakfast with Charlotte.  I got a text from my friend the first day, telling me she didn't know Hailey was Gluten Free!  Apparently when they asked the kids if anyone had food issues Hailey for some reason said she was gluten free.  Turns out the gluten free food was really good and all the other kids started asking for it, Hailey was the only one who got it.  They made every meal special for her.  I asked her when she got back why she said she was gluten free?  Her response was if she did it at camp then I wouldn't have to change my cooking and go to the store and buy special stuff.  She was trying to see if her nose at night would be less stuffy

Hailey's day group Georgie and Erika.  Yes it was very cold

 They went on many hikes, one day a 6 miler

 I just love this picture of my Happy Girl! 

Hailey said the trip was so fun, she never got homesick, it went by superfast, she was never bored, wished it were longer and was glad I didn't go!  Win Win

My friend Tracey sent me some photos of Hailey while she was there, she said Hailey was always smiling

 Getting ready for the Dance

 Off the bus to hug her mommy.  She said she showered 1 time, for 1 minute!  That is heaven to her

 Guess who surprised Hailey at the bus, Nana and Papa.  Hailey must have talked over an hour straight about the camp.  She was amped.
