Camp Grannie and Pooh-Pa

While I was at Girls Camp, the boys were at Grannie and Pooh-Pa camp. This is one of the best kinds of camps there is. Here are some of the camp activities:

1. At this camp you get to play XBox with Lego Batman, Lego Harry Potter, and Castle Crashers until your thumbs fall off.

2. Snake cakes and bacon for breakfast every morning.

3. Visiting Pooh-Pa's office and walking across the street for a Baskin Robins treats.

4. Playing with cousins.

5. Trip to the beach (where it was cold and wet... not the first image that comes to mind when you see the word beach)

6. You get to eat at all the finest restaurants:

Cafe McDonalds

The Dairy Queen Lounge

and

Le King of the Burger

7. Day trips to the Hands On Children's Museum.

and so much more.

But the best part was the weekend at Camp Grannie and Pooh-Pa when I arrived, cause I got to have a

SPA DAY

WITH MY MOMMY AND MY SISSY... (and maybe The Snake came along too)

take a look at how cute my toes are!

... and I got a manicure, which after 5 days of playing in the dirt at Girls camp... I NEEDED!

Included in Spa Day was the mani/pedi, AND mom's special recipe for avocado mud masks, almond facial scrub, with papaya finishing mask! Not to mention a seriously long soak in the jetted tub...

EVERYBODY LOVES CAMP GRANNIE AND POOH-PA!!!!

Who does this kid belong to?

We were visiting my parent's ward for church last Sunday. When I went to pick up The Snake from Primary/Sunday School I was surprised to see an old friend from High School was his teacher. He was happy to see me. He said that they couldn't figure out who The Snake was visiting. When they asked him he said:

The Snake: "My grandma and grandpa"

Teacher: "What is your grandma's name?"

The Snake: "Grannie"

Teacher: "What is your granpa's name?"

The Snake: "Pooh-Pa"

They gave up trying to figure out who he belonged to. Even though that is their names you know.

Girls Camp

And the....

Rain Rain Rain came

Down Down Down

In rushing rising rents

'Till the river rushed out of it's bed

And rushed right into our tents.

So the Sunshine Girls came to save the day with their Pocket Full of Sunshine Skit

They gotta pocket, gotta pocket full of sunshine...

and only asked me if they could go home about ten times a piece.

Camping is miserable when you are wet, your tent is wet, your sleeping bag is wet, and your stuff is wet.

One site had to dig a trench to divert the standing water out of their site.

We will always remember... and talk for years to come about the year that it rained.

But we did press forward.

And with our glow in that dark beads on our shoe laces we did:

Walk In The Light.

Something Is Missing

... around here.

These books are usually being read. Those legos on the top shelf are NEVER put away like this. That television is usually playing a movie or Wii game...

This is where you would normally find The Brain.

And where are The Snake and Mr. Fingers?

They have been at their Dad's house for a week... and won't come home 'till the day after tomorrow. And then next week they are going to be at my parents house while I am at girls camp.

I sure do miss those boys. In fact I just finished crying all of my mascara off 'cause I miss them so much.

Ever been home sick while you were still at home?

Ya, me neither.... (sniff, sniff)

I need more tissue.
