girls camp

Today was a fun day for Eliza. Some of the yw in the ward do a mini-girls camp for the little girls.

Today they had the carnival session and fashion session. They did face painting, games, nails, she made a cute bracelet, a fashion show, learned a dance (this is their big performance) and I'm not sure what else.  She was gone all day!  

Meanwhile, we did our normal thing.  The kids thought it was pretty funny I put Jane in the sink for a wash :-)

After lunch, Kaleb and I looked at each other and decided we needed to go do something fun.  He earned tons of free ice-cream coupons from his teacher, so we cashed in on that first. 

Then he wanted to look for new cages for his creatures.  We found a pretty cool one at Goodwill for $1.50.  He kept telling me, "I forgot my money, but can I loan you some when we get home?"  :-)  

I also got him new church clothes and I don't think we've ever been a changing room together before.  

"I have to try it on?" 

"Yes, please."  

"But, why?!

"Because I said!" 

"Okay, but just the shirt."

"No, the pants too."  

"But Mom!"

Pure torture.  I wanted to do more shopping, but knew I better quit before he forgot about the fun time we were having.

Other highlights:

At FHE we were trying to get the kids to guess the word "fasting."  I said, "you know, what's it called when you don't eat all day and night?" Kaleb quickly said, "Death."
