Red, White, and Blue!

Tie dyeing with the Girl Scouts at Stonelick State Park was so much fun! They wanted a red, white, and blue theme because they would be celebrating the 4th of July (on June 19th). I had the best helpers: Tink, Pop Tart, Kricket, Daisey, Meeko, and Peanut. Here are a few photos:
