The boys were all over the place, you could see where exactly they had been, as they left a trail of destruction whereever they went! The weather was gorgeous so they were able to make their mess outside in the sandpit most of the time.Then in the evening it was Zoe's Birthday Party - she had two on the same day - poor Ramona! In the afternoon she had a "Pirate Party" with her friends from school, and in the evening, the family and friends came for a big delicious Barbecue!
Ramona did a re-run of the treasure hunt for the boys and Zoe's second cousin. It was so cute, the boys thoroughly enjoyed it. They balanced along logs, looked for arrows on the floor, and made a lot of noise to frighten other treasure hunters away. And where had the treasure been hidden - in Zoe's garden!
We had decided beforehand that this time, we weren't going to get up and go at 7pm like we normally do, we waited for the "meltdown", which came around 9.30pm. Which was really late for the boys.
They slept all the way home in the car, and they even had a tiny bit of a lay in in the morning! 8am they woke! Not bad! Richard would have slept longer, but Robert didn't agree with that, and pestered him til he got up and played with him!
We then went out to meet some friends at the local zoo. It was their yearly summer party there. So lots of fun things to do. The boys got to use a REAL digger! They would have had two goes on it, but after queuing directly after we got there. They changed their minds. But on the way out they did want a go, and they thoroughly enjoyed it, maybe next year, boys!
After that we went home and the boys played Playdoh in the garden! That was the best idea ever I think. I don't think it will be a rainy day thing anymore. More like a garden thing now. The mess, which is biodegradeable, stayed in the garden, and didn't get trodden into any carpets or anything! Great idea boys!
We then had to take Florian to the station, as again the car park is closed, this time a circus has come to town and is using it! I never did like the circus - so annoying, we were all looking forward to a complete weekend! Maybe next week!
OK, One more challenge to complete for BTST, I have left it quite late haven't I, oops!
Well, here it is, this is my Quickpage (minus pictures and journalling of course) It is also my entry for the Picture Perfect Challenge at DSO. The journalling reads:
What do these two
have in common?!
The cat - Sunny - beloved pet!
Sid the slowworm!
Sunny brought us a present and left it in the lounge for me to find!
Of course not expecting it, I screamed, which in turn frightened the boys!
So Sunny that day was in the doghouse!
Bye 4 now

That just sounded like a lovely party, and a great zoo. Really was a fun-filled weekend! I'm not sure I understand how it works with that car park thing, but I sure can understand it's annoying not to have the complete weekend you were hoping for!
Btw, I've finally finished and send that form I've been telling you about. So now the waiting starts. ;)
