I don't want to go home.

Fear not...this comment did not come from a discussion of our upcoming trip to the Midwest. Although I will be honest that for the first time I'm feeling a bit sad about missing out on an English summer. A little sad. Thankfully, we have had a really nice taste of summer in England over the past 10 days. We have been in the sea, we have stopped for many ice creams, the squirt guns have been fired, shorts, sandals & summer dresses have been worn and we even went camping! The school had an end of the year camping event this weekend and this is how both boys responded as the car was packed and we were dragging them to the car.

It was held an amazing woodworker's field and was filled with only school families. Camping in England can be chancy with its infamous weather, but we completely scored this weekend and loved it. The best part of it is that there are really no bugs here. No mosquitos buzzing in the ears, no ticks looking for blood, nothing more than a little friendly spider. What a lovely way to end the year and send us off on our holiday back home!

Pizza when camping...not so bad!
