William visit Day 15 + 16

Sunday

Caleb's sleepover was a really nice time for both. They had a good sleep but were awake at 6 am. Our church service is at 10 am. And not very far. Breakfast didn't take long. What to do? As it was still nice and coolish we had time to look at the garden. Caleb looooves to use the clippers and trim. Dead-heading is not a chore for him. Yeah!

We suddenly saw also that butterfly # 4 (the last one) had hatched. Not much time before we had to leave. We drove the awning out for some shade and carried everything outside. 

 

It wasn't ready to fly off. It had it's wings more closed than open. William took all the photos. So that is why we left it like this. When we came back it was gone. Of course.

We went straight from the church to bring Caleb home. His parents were still gone and his other grandparents needed to leave with him in good time because the next day the camp started which they had arranged for him.

James and I of course stayed with the twins. We built a very nice railroad.

Yes, yes, sometimes bribery is allowed. We went to Sweetfrog after the twins nap. A treat also for William because several days earlier we had wanted to take him to the one close to us and -big dissapointement - it was 'temporarily' closed. 

Too hot to go outside. Some TV and some wrestling while watching.

Monday

Not many photos! We had to get up early because we had a 38 minute drive to his CSI camp and sign-in was at 8:45 am. Luckily he had a good nights sleep and everything went fine. 

Unfortunately Sarah had a problem. The babysitter called in sick. Fortunately we could help. James and I were at her house at noon. We ahd lunch with the twins Sarah had to leave for work at 12:30. We had a good time playing then the twins napped. James went to pick William up from his camp which was not so far now and the twins were awake when they arrived back. 

Wade (and Sarah when she doesn't have to work at that time) take the children for a bikeride on the golf course which is open on Monday evenings. When Wade arrived from work he was kind to take William as well. It's much more fun for William to ride his bike with company. Papa and Omi can't help there.

When we thought they might be coming back we waited outside. I open the back of my car and use to sit on it. Soon we saw several deer including a young buck walk across the street into the back yard not far from us.

Stella's ears pricked up but she did not move. Interesting.

And then they arrived back. I think William is tired from a long day filled with experiences.

William was very grateful though that Wade had taking him on that ride. He says he needs to exercise.
