Family supper at camp...
The juice (Mango or Lemon) was sooooo good! The bread rolls were also really good!! Abby went back for more and came back with her arms FULL - omg sooo embarrassing!!! ;) Susie and Laurence say the food at camp is always REALLY good.
Pony rides for the children while Susie is checked in...
Both Sam and Abigail had a ride while I checked Susie in and signed the waivers...
Off to camp...
Susannah all packed and ready to head off to Summer Camp this afternoon. She will be gone until Friday night. She was very excited until she got there and then all of a sudden seemed a little nervous! I just know she will have so much fun again though :) Last year she loved it just soooo much! This time she knows what to expect too and will have a little more freedom with the horses too - she's excited about that!
Frank went missing...
..but all is well now :)
We came in from being outside all evening and we were about to put Frank the Caterpillar in his jar....but he was GONE!!! The bag was empty!!! So we checked the kitchen and couldn't find him ANYWHERE......so I was a bit grossed out that Frank was 'somewhere' in my new kitchen and we didn't know where....
So I came upstairs and was feeling a little stressed....when 5 minutes later there was a bit of a girly yell from downstairs and a yell from Lloyd telling Laurence to be careful about something!!!
I don't know what's going on!!!
Lloyd comes up to tell me that Laurie had been watching tv in the front room when what does he see but FRANK crawling up his shoulder!!!!! Hahahahahahaha omg!! Laurence freaked!!!! Ran into the kitchen and was going to flick Frank off because he didn't know what it was!!!
Of course Lloyd was all protective of Frank the caterpillar! Hahahahaha!!! :)
Anyway :) Frank is back safe and sound and now is in his jar :)
All is well and my kitchen is nice and clean again and Laurence has calmed down :)
It has been quite the day for adventures! We caught two more frogs tonight after letting the original frog go. We had them in a bucket by the fire pit and then we let them go and they were hopping away but Charlie saw them and was after them and it was a bit of a pig chase frog affair, so we scooped the frogs up and took them to the pond and set them free there instead....
Oh the drama!!!!

Building blocks.....
For as long as I can remember, since he was tiny...Sam has LOVED to play with the new pack of toilet tissue from Costco!! It is his job to unpack them and put them away, but before they get packed away, he will play with them for hours and HOURS!!!! He builds towers and knocks them down - he builds walls and forts - he makes houses and sits amongst them. He makes stop lines and stops you from crossing them. He likes to throw them into laundry baskets and play target practice. He will just play with them for sooooo LONG! Then he places a few in each bathroom and put the rest away in the correct cupboards. It's his chore of the month :)
Who needs expensive toys when you can play with toilet tissue rolls??? My funny boy!
Abigail's frog......
"Abby where is the frog?"
"In my bedroom".
"WHAT???"
"Well...it's a very nice frog...."
This is Abigail's frog....and this is the bucket that she put the frog in and took it up to her bedroom in....without telling anyone.
Then Sam, later on was stroking the frog and saying 'oh so sweetly' "Don't worry little froggy, you'll be safe here"....and I just wanted to say "hop away little froggy - as fast as you can - hop for your life" ;)
Poor little thing hasn't got a hope ;)
It's still in the bucket but will be going back to the pond when Abigail has finished drawing it and learning about frogs from it etc etc...but thankfully it seems to be doing well :)
Treehouse project continues...
The second wall has gone in....that was yesterday, and today the third wall is going in...and I believe part of, if not the entire, roof.
Laurence enjoying the fire ban being lifted :)
It's so great that the fire ban has now been lifted :) Yay!!! We've been out by the fire a few evenings already - making snakes on a stick...having jacket potatoes cooked in the ashes....having S'mores.....and hotdogs....
