This past weekend was our yearly family camping trip. We pitched our tents at one of the largest state parks in California: Montaña De Oro. The campsite was located by the beach, although I still managed to get sunburned overcast and all. The creme de la creme of the site was the lack of cell phone reception which meant just the family and beautiful ol' mother nature. Sounds gorgeous right?
Well it was but with all beauty there is always an ugly side. In this case the culprits were masked bandits (otherwise know as raccoons) and the treasure was smores. The dead give away was their glowing eyes which also happen to be a must have of the featured glow in the dark heels. In the middle of the night the racoons bared their thieving masked faces and swiped all of our smore ingredients just as in Over the Hedge. Yes I did just referenced a Disney movie... Stepmom hello! Back to the crime scene, I was sadden by the emptyness of my blue ice chest but luckily my sister bought all the smore essentials too. So the lesson of the story is never under estimate the power of the uncontrollable hunger for a smore whether it be from man or beast always lock your cooler.
Day two brought a smile to eveyone's face as it was the night of the talent show and since I still live by the rule "save the best for last" the puppet show was the last performance. I would have to say with no script the show went off with a blast and I could tell the audience thoroughly satisfied because after each ad-lib performance the kids kept chanting, "Another one!" Sadly though, the cast was so into their performances we forgot to get a full cast picture. Since the show was a hit I am planning to do another one next year but with more elaborate puppets.
The camping trip was nice and relaxing but like all vacations once they end. You then have no choice but to come back to reality and face the overheating car still sitting in the drive and the six hour drive home. That is when your own monster starts to appear and you realize I should of bought the Iron Fist Zombie Stompers - Glow in the Dark Limited Edition Heels and left the attitude at home ♥
