Week 11 Day 3 - Sunday, July 26th - Clean up

Sunday
We were up early again on Sunday. I would guess around 7:30am or so. We flipped the last load of laundry and had some breakfast! Dad made a good one.

We finished packing up the car and got on the road early. I wanted to see the damage done and hopefully get things sort of cleaned up in a good time. We left Kyler with Nana and Papa for his week and he could have cared less. He didn’t care if we said good bye or not. He was playing with Amber!

We were on the road by 10:30am and got home shortly after noon.
We took a load over to the garage (since we had shoved the van full of everything we could). Once we unloaded we headed out to the campsite to see how it looked. Here are the photos from the campsite:

It was so bad guys. We managed to get one of the guys at the top of the hill to come down with the Kubota and help Arnold with the fridge. The only thing we did with the fridge was open it up and take out Kristina’s Friends containers and then ziptied it closed because we didn’t want to deal with anything in there. When Arnold flipped it to get it out of the tent water came POURING out of it. It was so bad.

The ground was SO bad to be walking on in shoes so we all took off our shoes. Then you kept slipping so Arnold put down some sand and said not only did I get a mud pack on my feet BUT I could exfoliate at the same time. I told him this did NOT mean he was getting out of giving me a pedicure.
Once things were clean we tossed them into the van and brought them right to the garage again. Less things to bring later. We stopped at the pizza place and ordered some pizza for supper. Then after unloading the van we picked up the pizza and headed to Kristina and Tim’s house. We had supper there and hung out for a bit. Q and I braved the campsite and Arnold went to work via transit and we went back to sleep.

Week 10 Day 3 - Sunday, July 19th - Fun Rides

Nana and Papa left today. I think just after lunch. We just had a lazy day. It was so nice to hang out and Kyler was super excited for his bacon breakfast! We had lunch at the campsite and headed over to the new house. The Landlord’s parents let us in and we got to show my parents the new house! They really liked it. Mom seriously doesn’t think the bus will fit to the backyard but we will see.

Once Nana and Papa headed out Arnold and I continued to do some more packing/cleaning to get things moved over to the new house’s garage. While we were working one of the ‘nice people’ who are working came and took the boys for a ride in the Kubota. The kids were SO excited. I made Arnold snap a few photos:

Week 10 Day 2 - Saturday, July 18th - Heslop Family Zoo Day

Today was our Annual Heslop Family Zoo Day! We have been doing this every year since K was born. In fact somewhere I have photos of Becca and I standing by the sign with Amber and Kyler in our slings.

Anyway today was ours for 2009. Jack was working so he didn’t get to come but we didn’t change the ‘boy ratio’ since this year Uncle James came.

We all met there around 9 am or so and started our day at the zoo. We had SO much fun. Not much else to say about the zoo so enjoy the photos:

We had a picnic lunch in Nana and Papa’s RV. It was perfect for lunch! We had a blast! After our Zoo day was over we went to the campsite and ‘snuck’ in Nana and Papa (isn’t it good when you make friends with the staff upstairs!). We had a great big campfire and hung around for the rest of the day/night!
