Jellyfish One Lex Zip!

Ouch! Poor Lex got stung last night swimming at York River Beach. We tried the pee thing..but (it) did not give her much relief...we ended up calling from the Help Box...EMTs followed shortly after...and fixed her right up! The pic above was taken this morning...looks so much better, just an oblong discoloration...last night it was quite swollen.

This was about 45mins before the sting!



This was 45 mins after treatment....enjoying our outdoor supper!

Petting Sharks and Gel Putty Farts!

Today we went to the Richmond Science museum...to check out thier new Shark exhibit...they had some wicked cool sand sculptures on display and the girls got to pet a white spotted bamboo shark. We enjoyed ourselves... on the way out we stopped at the gift shop...we found and purchased some sea putty with little sea creatures in it...It's so cool and cold to the touch...its providing hours of fun this even. Among it's many amazing abilities...is it's fart noise making one, when pressed it into a container.


Swimming with the Sharks!



Sharks have supper sensitive sense of touch!



The Sand Sculptures were amazing!

Liv and Lex got to do some sculpting of their own, at the outside sand boxes and Liv found about 10 more shark teeth to add to her collection!

Lex made jewelry with her putty among other things...it's definitely some of the best slime/putty we ever played with.

"B" Campy


That's the name we have come up with for our new to us 1988 Xplorer RV Van. It fits in so many ways....for one, smaller RVs are called B Classes in the RV world. Two, the previous owners' grandsons had nicknamed it 'Campy'...ta girls liked that and decided to add our initial for extended ownership...and three 'Be Campy'...it's cheesy funny....just like us!

Since we bought it home, it's been a home away from home for Liv and Lex....we all love hang'n out in it....could use some air con....but it meets our criteria.....we can't wait to go on our first trip! We have to conserve our funds so it may be a while..but for now we got it juiced up...curbside...gives a whole nother meeting to staycation.
