What do you get when??!!!


You have 2 girls aged 10 and 11 that are determinant to sleep outside on the balcony in a beach tent as shown like the one seen to the left.

Well obviously you have a sleep over that the neighbours will be kept awake will godly hours of the morning!
The weather has been lovely, the AC has been on almost everyday and we have been enjoying many BBQ's. Monster and her friend has a sleep out last night that went a little "no so good as they planned." They got the beach tent and were playing in it all day and then decided to sleep in it, no problem I guess, so they got sleeping bags, teddy bears, games, torches, drink, food and puzzle books. At 11pm I heard some loud snoring coming from outside so they were knocked out, then I headed to bed.
At 4am I was woken by a dripping sound and through my sleepy half opened eyes I could see a form of a child that was totally soaked! reminded me of the child out of the film "The Ring" it was monster, "Mum is it raining really hard outside and the tent is leaking can we come inside?" I was so tempted to say no but I was giggling so hard by this point I rushed downstairs and dragged everything inside.
I put the girls in Monsters bed and made them top and tale, it was not till 6:30am that they went back to sleep after all the laughter about the sudden thunderstorm.
It was a funny night but I am so tired now I think I will kick them off to bed early tonight, or even better tell the monsters friend that it is time she slept at their place!
