Gramma Camp 2.0!
Gramma camp 2.1
Thursday, August 30
The day began at 6:00. Reading on the couch with the lights on. It was still dark. I got up at 6:12. I did my morning ablutions, went into the living room and asked about their morning. Jos said, "We were up 7 minutes ago."
Breakfast... toast.
No breakfast on the back deck today! Too cold! (This was yesterday!) The weather has turned suddenly.

Next, research for a craft on Google. Our options:
This is what Josee decided on. She did a fine job, working on it over the morning. She ended up colouring brown in between the stones, for the fence. The photo I found on
Izzy and I built a tent.
Everyone was reading. Izzy read the book we bought for cousin Cluny for Christmas:
The Secret Life of Squirrels: Back to School!
(We have the first book!)
Grampa bought us a couple of books, Lego Ninjas, with puzzles in them.
2:00 p.m. – I did a reasonable job on Izzy's hair! We went to a medical appointment in the afternoon, and saw a cool car. We met momma there. Grampa and Iz chilled at home.
5:00 p.m. – Gramma insisted on eating outside at Rideau Ferry. It's always fun afterwards. I thought it would be cool, Izzy didn't have a sweater, so I'd brought her great-great-grampa's shirt.
Jos asked for the camera!
Then Izzy asked for the camera! I had my scarf on, as the wind was blowing my hair in my face.
Hilarity ensued on the drive home.
To answer Jean's question: the cats enjoy tennis!
We hurried home to look for Hooper. He wasn't lost. He was sleeping on the back deck. Grampa finished his tennis game, while we read. Bed by 7:30! They're ready for school next week!

I'll say the weather turned 13º down from 31º overnight!
The cat art work is wonderful. I think there is another artist in the family.
Looks like a fun day and I'm so glad you got backin time for Hooper to catch the tennis match on tv!
What great photos and time spent together - awesome 👏🏻 ❤️
The girls are the best cure for your depression. I believe you had a hard time because they were far away, and you were worried.
I'm afraid climate has big surprises in store for us this winter. May God have mercy on us!
you are a great grandma!
It sounds like you've had fun with them!
Tennis, if that paw is in the right place, the ball was OUT. Ours sit on the carpet and crane their head up to watch. What a great day, and so good to see you all doing wonderful things together.
The kids look like they're having fun or else up to a lot of mischief.
There is so much joy in these photos - I miss my kids being these ages! We used to laugh so much! Love the shot of the cat watching tennis!
