Summer Camp for the Kids

Well.....

i did it.


i finally had enough...

and i sent the children off for a while.






I packed them some towels and swim wear....


and bid them adieu.


Farewell my little ones....

always remember mommy loves you!

I'll see you in the Fall....

Just in time for School to start.


....and they were out the door.

I waved them on....

I thought i might cry...

they were....

but i just felt an overwhelming peace wash over our home....


i would miss them...

well: i woulda that is.......if i couldnt have heard them...

 the

whole

time....






bummer...i know...

the little summer camp beach cottage trip that i

banished them to

was only in our backyard.



before you consider social services....

they would have been perfectly fine.

there is a ripe cherry tree, pea pods, lettuce...

and strawberries,  all just right around ...

the neighborhood...

throughout various gardens and such.







Pretty nature was at thier fingertips....

it wasnt like they were being banished to

outer darkness or anything....


i just needed an afternoon all to myself...


but then guess who came home and put a stop
to all this "nonsense"... (i think thats what he called it).


.....




Ya~huh.

Hubby.





He was frowning upon my plan....

He thought they should be allowed in the house...

and that i should just learn to cope better with noise....




so just go ahead and guess where he slept that night?





Ya~huh.


Theyre all officially banished now.

It's Exile for that back talkin crew!

and i got the house to myself for ...

well....

(like only a half hour really....)

but it was worth all the nieghbors dirty looks.
