Yesterday's Doings

Following a familiar pattern, Mr Messy brought NA Artifact friend round after their diner breakfast, and he and Drama Teen did some more shooting. Drama Teen had been up VERY early (earlier even than Mr Messy) - wonder if she was excited about seeing Older Boy again?!?! When Mr Messy took NA Artifact friend home, Little Prince discovered a mud puddle - we didn't realise until he appeared in the kitchen looking like a Mud Monster!! It was too late to tell him no by then, and he was having so much fun so we let him go and play some more!! I managed to get quite a lot of video of the 'performance'!! It took over half an hour in the shower with both me and LMS working on him and three shampooings to get him reasonably clean!!!! Once again Older Boy arrived after lunch and he and Drama Teen headed off on his quad bike down the creek for more fishing. We went off in the car to a different nearby town with a different hunting shop!! Mr Messy finally found a cowboy hat he liked, but decided not to get it partly as it was black and Little Prince was worried about being a Bad Guy and partly because we've only got a few days of our holiday left and he wouldn't wear it at home lol. He did find some sunglasses that fit over his prescription glasses, and don't look silly!!! I got Little Prince a cuddly/plush stuffed deer to hang on the wall of his American bedroom :-) And best of all we found him some Disney Crocs, much to both his sister's disgust!!! On the way home we stopped at a showground for modular houses and had an hour wandering round them. It was interesting to see how these houses looked, and how different from UK houses they were. Mr Messy and LMS chose the one they want - the most expensive on the lot of course!!! Once back at the house Cabbage Queen had to get ready for a church meeting, and me, Mr Messy, Drama Teen and Little Prince went out on our own to McDonalds. We even found it :-)
