Are you all enjoying the school holiday’s?? It has been horrible rainy weather here. Kids have been stuck indoors. It was nice on the first few day’s as they were so tired from school, sports and other activities, but now I would really love for the sun to shine so we can visit parks with friends, play outdoors and wash clothes….yes I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t add the last one.
However while indoors we have had some fun:
- I moved around DD#1’s room.
- Played alot of board games
- Enjoyed a day with 6 children + me
- Watched the kids swim in the pool, first time since winter
- My girls did some great water paintings of fairies
- Have done a lot of baking
- Watched some movies, Nanny McPhee and the big bang is such a great movie
- Sorted a pile of papers…hmmm what sort of papers you ask…you will have to wait for the post
- Made something very special for my kids (another post to come)
- Went to another Tupperware party and brought a gorgeous hobby organiser which I will fill with craft items for DD#2 as a Christmas gift. If anybody would like one let me know and I can put you in contact with a great demonstrator.
- and…now I am feeling sick with sinus pain…ooh well, it’s good to rest a little.
