Stockton Lake

I woke the girls' up at 6:30am, we packed the car including breakfast to eat on the way, and drove the 45minute trip to Amies house, where they all piled in the car and we drove south for a couple of hours to spend the day at Stockton Lake with their neighbours. The kids spent most of the day on the boat, having the absolute time of their lives! They did eventaully get hungry and thirsty, and sunscreen was constantly reapplied, but that's all they got out of the boat or water for. We arrived home at 7pm, all very tired!

Boxing Day

We spent today with our good friends, swimming ,eating, playing table tennis, more eating, chatting and relaxing! Such good fun!

Happy Christmas 2014

The day started early. 5am to be precise. But it's well and truly daylight then (4:40am) The Cat was up. The day began. The girls' opened their stockings (Father Christmas did well) and looked through their hauls for awhile while I let the chickens out, cut up the guinea pig food, and fed and watered all the animals. And had a cuppa. We then opened the gifts under the tree to each other. I got some lovely gifts. The girls had put alot of thought into it, and remembered what I had suggested over the last couple of months. We headed off to Amie's late morning for lunch and to relax. We all had a great day and came home very tired. The kids fell asleep on the way home!
Here are some pics from our day!
