DAY FOUR-CAMP REDNECK


We seem to have settled into the BORING CAMP routine yesterday. I got out the sidewalk chalk and the razor scooters, but the hit of the morning was moving "Furniture" into the tree house. It SO reminded me of Camille as a little girl. The oldest seemed to be suffering from a little "Homesickness". We then went to the Movie AGAIN- and saw "Imagine That". A cute but slightly predictable movie. I thought the boys seemed a little bored during it. We then went to the video game room. # 1 likes to drive the cars fast and crash lots and # 2 likes to shoot the gun. Home for a brief period and then to the pool. They seemed a little bored even swimming today. Home for "Dogs" and chili and then MORE target practice. We were all in the bed by 9 PM.


It is interesting to watch the difference in their personalities and their interaction together. Some of it is very predictable such as little brother warting, warting warting, and then WHAM big brother clobbers him. They are REALLY different though in their basic personalities. # 1 is cautious and careful-a little fearful. # 2 doesn't seem to realize there is danger in anything and will jump off the cliff if you don't watch him. I did denote a little fear in both over the wasps. If you live in the woods, you have wasps. They both are terrified. Maybe they don't have wasps in Texas?


At any rate we are up early again today. # 1 wakes # 2 up when he is ready to get going. I really think # 2 would like to sleep for a while longer, but # 1 WILL NOT HEAR OF IT! I am wondering does this go on at home? We have some different plans today, so MAYBE the boredom will be lifted.

#1s are always the more fearful for some reason. It was like that for us...I was always thinking of the worst case senario.

They are so cute and you know they love it in Mama Lulu and Papa Bob's woods. Do you have the doggies there, too?
