Camping Break

GUILTY AS CHARGED!



I took a little break from making Baba Yaga's house(*gasp*) to enjoy my sweet boys. We decided to camp out in the backyard last night. It was so fun! We didn't' do much; just read a few stories and then lights out, but it was a nice change of pace.

Plus, since we were sleeping outside, it was nice and cool!

D accidentally 'stole' T's bedding at some point. Then, once I got T back in order, I woke to find that MY bedding had been borrowed! That D! I also got to enjoy his feet in my stomach. He is a heavy sleeper, that one! C opted to stay inside where she had her bed, books, and space.

Here is the fruit salad we left out for the possum, though he didn't show up. I told the boys that I think all of the local night animals were probably a bit put off by the presence of our small blue tent and our non-animal snores.

As for Baba? I made the body of her hut with a great hand dyed wool fabric, some heavy duty sizing, wire and thread. I will mount it on a base and then felt the tops of the chicken legs and attach them to the hut. The roof will be a surprise, so I can't tell you about that until it is done. Hopefully what I see in my mind will translate well to reality, but, as you all know, that remains to be seen. One just never knows!

Until next time, happy camping!
