Mimi Camp Day One - London!

 

Today was the first day of my European Cruise aboard my living room! Campers arrived for breakfast. 
Some arrived for a full English breakfast (minus baked beans and tomatoes). 


And some came for Lucky Charms. 
We chose a craft from the craft box. 


We played some "Footy". 


Then they played some Gaga Ball with grampa. 


Returned home for lunch at the pub.


Finishing up the fish and chips and celebrating a birthday. I swear I bought frozen peas. I can't find them. And I didn't even have a random can of canned peas. 


I put them in teams to design and build the London Bridge. 


The Gray Team. They were named after my couches. 


These two split from the brown team and formed their own partnership.

Snacks for Afternoon Tea. 

Attaching the recipe to the bag of Dollar Tree Dinner items. 

Our dinner bags, packed and ready to go to the food blessing boxes. 

Ice Cream Break

  1. Looks like loads of fun. I like the 'pub' for their meals. FYI that is Tower Bridge not London Bridge.

  7. I want to come to Grandma camp too! So much fun. Great choice of tea cakes and I LOVED all of the bridges. They resembled Tower Bridge very well. Can't wait for the next photos.
    Blessings and hugs,

  9. This is such fun! I love how everyone is engaged, even in the craft projects. And some of those Tower Bridges are excellent. They will remember this time. So clever, right down to the meals!

Thank you so much for stopping by to visit! I love your comments and suggestions and read them all. Due to spam, I will now have to approve all comments. Sometimes it takes me a hot minute to authorize comments due to grandchildren commitments. I apologize but I can't let those scammers get the upper hand!
