Another un-sleepover

It really wouldn't be a school holiday if we didn't celebrate with an un-sleepover. Today Hollis drove the girls down this morning and then drove off all alone in her big old school bus. Must have felt very lonely! Nobody in this house was lonely, oh no. They were in heaven.

I don't really have any idea what they did this morning. They all branched out into various rooms and did whatever it is that they did. I do know that Rosie and Trevi made a camp under the dining room table because I had to secure the blankets for them. I had to disband their little camp so that they might eat lunch, I wasn't very popular.

After lunch our friend Rose joined us and we went to the park for a couple of hours. (I am about to rant so you may want to skip this bit: Why the h*ll can't dog owners down here clean up after their flipping dogs? 3 out of the 7 of us trod in it in the park. A park that clearly stated NO DOGS. A park with a childrens play area. How disgusting.) Continuing on..... the girls, Rose and I played quite merrily. It was one of our unusual days, perfect crystal clear skies and temperatures in the low 70's with a wonderful breeze. By the time we got home I think we had just about killed Rose so she made a fast exit and the girls and I continued on with our shenanigans.

The gangs all here


Tonight as I write this post the girls are all eating popcorn and watching Nanny McPhee Returns.
I wonder why they like to sit on the floor?


I expect they'll go to bed at some point and sleep for a whopping couple of hours! In the morning they'll be up, bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready to repeat today. Somehow I don't think Big Rose will be so ready.
