Cousin Erin sang a song and played her ukulele and wished us a happy Hawaii Day!
One of the girls said, "Wait. She's our cousin?!"
I explained that she was their mom's and dad's cousin. So that makes her your cousin, too.
Anklets were just the ticket to set the mood.
The girls then watched a youtube tutorial on how to do the hula. I have video but couldn't get it to download. Will try later.
We revisited the mentos experiment this year. Miss P* had requested that I order the correct apparatus for loading the mentos into the soda bottle. I did. Since last year I learned that diet soda performs better.
And boy does it!!!! See photos below.
I don't know how high it shot, but it was taller than us all.
We all squealed with delight.
We will probably do this every year.
Until we get tired of it.
Or they grow up.
And then I may do it anyway.
Yes. We ate Spam for lunch. Along with fruits, leftover baked beans, and cole slaw.
Millie ate her one bite of Spam without complaining. She did not ask for seconds.
Merritt ate her two bites. And did not ask for seconds.
Peyton ate her two bites. And asked for five more.
Man. Spam is so salty.
We painted newspaper and made grass skirts.
We made tissue flowers.
The girls played in the house because we had another heat advisory today.
Then we watched Moana.
Toward the end of the movie Merritt requested Granddaddy pull her loose tooth.
So.
He did.
She is taking it home in a baggie for the tooth fairy's visit tomorrow night.
Our plan was to swim at the YMCA tonight. But the weather interrupted.
So. The girls ate fudgesicles. And M&Ms.
The sugar coma should hit in about an hour? Right?
And so, this year's camp is coming to a close tomorrow.
Millie hugged me extra hard when I asked her who would I hug tomorrow night?!
Closing ceremonies will commence at 10:00.
Packing will happen.
Make new friends but keep the old.
One is silver and the other is gold.
Shalom.
