Charlie : Candy Mountain

This is the only way I can figure out how to post the video, so here it is instead of at the end of the other post like I said.



Honestly, these sisters are quite odd!

My New Friend

Well it is quite a lovely morning out there, isn't it? Lucky for you blokes, I decided to take a break from the hot weather to make a little post for you. I must be quick though, I can't allow the others to have too much fun running through the sprinkler and drinking all my tea while I am away!

I know I am a little late on this but HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a very lovely Jodi. She came to visit me on Sunday, where I was introduced to an interesting creature, more on that later. She didn't stay long, they were all going out to watch the new Harry Potter movie. Honestly, I do not understand the hype, it's not like it's Twilight or something. Maybe I will have to read the books to see what is so great about this Harry Potter bloke. Maybe I can also talk the girls into taking me with them to see the movie next time they go, though I doubt they will take me over their new friend...

Which brings me to this...creature. I suppose Jodi gave it to Steph for her birthday when they exchanged gifts. Steph seemed positively delighted when she saw it, though I wasn't too sure of him at first.
In case you cannot read the name tag, it says "Hello! My name is: Charlie, Leave Me Alone" While many of you may be confused as to why it says that last little part, I included a video at the end of this post with the character that I am sure the creature was named after.


Then I realized he is quite brilliant
We very quickly became friends



Although, he is not too good at playing hide-n-seek



Steph informed us that our "ship" was a gift from Jodi and that after today we would not be able to play in it. So we took full advantage of it for those few short minutes.



Now Charlie, Sunshine Bear, Crocky, Froggy, and I are soaking up the sun while Steph and Nick are at work. They were gone for a week not too long ago and I, being the oldest, was left in charge. Needless to say, they came back too soon so now we have to utilize their work days. I think I just heard Charlie calling my name, I better head out there! It might be my turn on the slip and slide!


Cheerio!
