A couple monkeys
Mallory and Matthew practiced a couple monkey breads before leaving for a week at Maranatha Family Camp. Mallory will enter hers in the 4-H division, and Matthew will put his in open class. Mallory had to have her 4-H entries decided before we left on vacation, so that allowed us to keep it simple!! At least I thought I did! We entered her in the cherry pie baking contest, which is where she would have to take everything to the fair and make her pie there. She also had a cat wall hanging done that she made for me for Mother's Day, and she had a garden paver kit that she got for her birthday. We knew we could make some at Maranatha, so we wanted that one to wait until we got back and had practiced! We also planned to write up what she had done to her room. That would make four entries plus her contest and I thought that would be enough for her first year. If not, she could still enter anything she wanted in open class, as we have done for the past few years. We also had some entries planned for the boys, but that didn't need to be decided beforehand; just the 4-H division. We left for vacation thinking things were as "under control" as they could be!
Meanwhile, the kittens were trying to prove they were house worthy, so we blocked off the crawl through and let them stay in the basement. We had Sarah come over and check on them, so we were hoping they could be good for six days! It's a lot to ask of a kitty, but they said they'd do their best!
