twilight camp begins...

first day of twilight camp

We arrived early to complete chaos and disorganization. And face-melting heat. Then we moved into an elementary school gym to fix the chaos (or at least move the chaos to an air conditioned space). That's when we discovered that Caleb got to stay and play at the Tot Lot while Logan did Cub Scout stuff and Lynn did walking-den-leader stuff. We also discovered we should've made swaps for Logan to bring with him to trade with other scouts...there were several things we had to discover on our own yesterday. Sigh.

Anyway, Molly and I finally made it home three and a half hours after the original drop-off time, ate some supper and then set to work on Logan's swap design order. He wanted pirate-y with a skull and Davey Jones and maybe a flag too. I gave him pirate-y with a skull.

I found some royalty-free clip art online, altered it, added text and set to printing. I printed up some inkjet shrinky dinks and tied them to gold safety pins. And I just bought myself a cheapie button maker a couple weeks ago, so I made him some buttons too.

I suspect his hat will be much heavier when he gets home tonight.
