Halloween in July

Today was Halloween in July day at camp. I had to scramble up to the attic and dig around for the Halloween box for T's costume. Five boxes later, I found his dragon costume from last year. Yay! I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about this particular theme. I wasn't sure that there would be many kids participating. But when we showed up to camp, there were many kids already in costume. After a little bit of hesitation, T asked for his costume and ran happily to play with his co-campers.

We arrived early for pick-up. I am so glad I did. We got to the municipal just in time to see the campers all decked in their costumes in line for trick or treating. The counselors were strategically placed, each with a bag of candy. The campers went "trick or treating" with their loot bags that they decorated today. It was quite a sight to see 60 some odd kids in costumed lined up waiting for their candy. I wish I had the foresight to bring my camera. It was much cuter than I had anticipated. T had a blast! It was a wonderful idea!
