Family - Raining again..... it must be a holiday!

Today is the last public holiday until Christmas, and guess what, its raining.  In fact its pouring and due to be all day. This morning I have finished one of my WIP's. I had hoped to get it done for Ru to take home, but with a sleeve still to do and too much playing to be done I figured it would keep for another week.





We at least had a dry weekend for the boys, so I guess a day sitting around quietly will actually be the best way to recuperate!!

Friday Miss J and her mummy joined us for some play......



spot the engagement ring - she has finally announced it to the world, well Facebook, so thats as good as xx
Singing and dancing........



Lunch.........


Modelling........ one I made earlier


Blackberrying, actually there wasn't much to show as the boys ate most of them!!



Laurie kindly gave up the tractor to let Miss J take the driving seat, not sure there won't be a fight in years to come, as Miss J loved "driving"


Saturday we took the boys to Flag Fen  for a dino dig.


















Sunday the digging continued in the garden.... we may have hidden a few things for him to find



 


Chicken herding....


 Another apple! I'm actually not sure how many he picked up and ate, at least we know they are fresh and we have more than enough to go round



Coffee time and then to decide which WIP to work on next, me thinks that maybe a bit of ten stitch would go down well, sort of mindless knitting.  Enjoy your day off if you have one

Imagination and a few boxes

Today we have been in the land of the dinosaurs - for a change!

Take a cardboard box, 2 egg boxes, some sticky tape and a bag of dinosaurs from the charity shop and I give you Dino World






Its amazing what you can rustle up with a bit of thought.  I can't believe that its still in one piece especially as Laurie was having more fun than his brother. I think Ru was off colour today, grumpy and complaining, not his normal self.  I guess it didn't help that it has rained all day and we were stuck indoors.

At least this little one was happy



Rachel and Jessica came to visit so that brighten us up.




Pops was very late home and the boys were in the bath by the time he got in, so he was only available for story time.  I had worried that we would have trouble getting them to bed but no, all went well and its very quiet up there. Lets hope they sleep late.............. ha ha who am I kidding.
