Hard-Hat search & Cookies

Hello people!  I've been up to a lot lately...so i'll feel you in!  I meant to blog yesterday, but as I've said I have been super busy.

So, we are leaving to Goa tomorrow for a conference there.  It's a homeschool conference, so my Mum wants us to go and represent.  Haha.  I am really looking forward to it.  TOMORROW! yahhhhh!  It's gonna be awesome.  So, anyways, at the conference one night we have to dress up as a character from a book.  Connor chose his Driver Texas Manual book.  There's actually not a character from that book, but a while ago I made up one called "Safety Sam".  So, my brother took that name and now he is gonna use it for the conference.  For his character he decided he needed to find a hard hat.

Mandy had told us where to get one, so we called up Coy just because we knew he would love to come along.  Our first attempt happened on Thursday.  We left in the afternoon sometime, and finally got there.  When we were heading the right direction, Connor decided he needed to get out, cause he needed to practice music.  It was kinda funny, just him hopping out.  But yeah.  So, the auto continued and we finally got to the market where the hard helmet store was.  We searched the whole market for about an hour and a half.  We asked a lot of people.  Finally, we asked someone who knew where it was.  We finally found it, but it was closed.  It was sad.  Across the street was a cafe coffee day, so Coy and I were like oh, okay.  We'll just go there.  Haha.  So, we hung out there a bit drinking coffee and playing this silly game.  There on our table was a piece of paper that had like cricket stuff on it.  you had to spot 20 differences between two pictures and find 12 cricket terms in one of those wordy things.  We only found 10 words, but we got all of the differences.  The next day we went around noon.  This time Connor was with us.  We got there and it was closed.  We were SO sad.  We went across the street again and had coffee.  Connor spotted the other two cricket terms we were so happy that we found them all.



That night was youth and I had a great plan, which involved cookies.  Everyone would put a cookie on their head and try to get the cookie in their mouth without using their hands or arms.  It was so funny to watch.  I got some great footage of the amazing game.  Check it out below...



Hahaha.  Anyways, that game went well.  Quite well.

There was a lot of stuff we did on Saturday...but, i'm kind of lazy.  and a little tired of blogging...so maybe I'll do that later.  GOA TOMORROW! yay.
