Y Princess Campout-ButterCup and BaldEagle

Madeline tells me that this is the JUICIEST watermelon she has EVER had!




Warming up around the campfire with her friend Maryanne.

Marshmallow time.

Like her mommy, Madeline loves her marshmallows on fire and burnt to a crisp.






Okay, I know there are a lot of these fishing pictures, but they were ALL so precious.

Madeline and Daddy started their first year of Y Princesses just a couple weeks ago.  Madeline's Indian name is ButterCup and Matt's Indian name is Bald Eagle.  They are both loving it and it is precious to watch them talking together after a meeting or working on a project together to earn a feather.  Buttercup stayed by Bald Eagle's side, as he tirelessly sewed together his and her leather vests.  The morning of the campout, as I was brushing Madeline's teeth, she said, "Mommy, I am burning with excitement for tonight (the campout)".  They both love this special time together.  It is pure joy for me to watch.  Ry and I spent special time together that day, too, and I even let him sleep in our bed, which NEVER happens for the Wells' kids.
