Girl Scouts and Horse Camp

In February Madison and I attended a Girl Scout camping weekend at Camp Bette Perot in Palestine.  It was a new experience for me since Madison and Dewayne attended the Dad and Me camping weekend last summer.  Now it was my turn! 

Madison prepped me for weeks by warning me of the possible sub-par quarters and spiders (although we were going to a completely different camp).  The cabins were pretty nice - the first thing out of Shea's mouth was that these cabins were "way better" than when she went camping with Daddy. 

We spent the weekend earning Try-Its,hanging out and having fun.  We hiked, ate smores, exchanged "swaps" and overall enjoyed each other's company.

Loves nature!

Can you guess what was Shea's favorite part?

She was so excited!
It was great to spend time with Madison away from home.  She has grown into such an amazing, independent girl and I'm so lucky to be her mom!
