Gardening Camp.

I've been joking that Jude needs to go to Gramma Annie's and Papa Martin's gardening camp. I was only joking until I saw it! Let's hope Papa's green thumb got passed on to Jude.

Here's Jude learning how to pick cucumbers.

Washing up all the veggies so Gramma Annie can cook them up.

The fruits, or should I say veggies, of Papa and Jude's labour.

Jude and I were so lucky that Laura and Bailey were in Taber too. Jude just adores them.

Here's Jude teaching them how to throw really big rocks into the water to make big splashes.

Then Gramma got into the action too.

Here's gramma and her girls.

Here's Gramma posing for Jude to take a picture. (She's going to kill me for posting this, but I think it's a great photo.)
And here's Gramma rock, the resemblance is uncanny. The girls made a fun game for Jude of drawing happy faces on rocks around the yard and then having Jude find them. Jude found 40 of the happy faces, and I'm sure Papa and Gramma will be finding many more for years to come.

I'm not sure why everyone looks so angry in this snack photo.

Maybe hotdogs will make everyone happier. You'll notice no one is sitting on the chair, Papa believes weiners are best roasted crouching down. Needless to say Papa roasted my weiner.


Then it was craft time. Jude was happy there was glue, and mommy was happy it was all happening in Gramma's house.

Bailey and her frog.
Laura as a frog.

Laura and her elephant.

Outside to have a little fun in the water.

Inside to watch "Cars" for the millionth time. That's how much Jude is loved, everyone still watches that movie with him, over and over and over.

Thanks Bailey and Laura for being such great big cousins to Jude. Remember to tease him when he's your age about modeling every pair of new underwear he put on for you, and how he only lasted in the tent for 10 seconds before being too scared to sleep in it.

An absolutely wonderful weekend. Gramma even beat me at Scrabble, twice! Maybe the next trip to Taber will have to be Scrabble camp.
