unfortunately i was on call over the bank holiday weekend. and it was gloriously sunny! and if i hadn’t been on call we would have gone camping – and it most probably would have rained!! ah bah! anyway, thinks we did – a LOT of mooching about and playing in the garden. SB is attempting to read all her skulduggery books by next weekend – so is mostly found curled with a book . DH has sorted out the pond and the fruit bed, I have sowed cucurbits and sweetcorn and planted out the climbing beans (slightly risky) .
SB finished her oil painting in the style of van gogh whilst i read story of the world – we are still way way behind!!
BB did a good cello and piano practice and is getting more confident and less phased by things – always good [tho i now remember we should hve done cello today - gah!!] SHe has also taken lots of opportunities to use her butterfly book to identify butterflies in the garden, including this holly blue
but our big thing was done today when i had the day off. I offered going out geocaching, cycling or perhaps to national trust, a park, a museum. none of these appealed, so i said lets repaint your wendy house, so that is what we did joined the masses at b and q, spent far too much on paint, and then came home and completely painted the exterior. took most of the day. both girls kept at it, and it looks brilliant
then we all queued to clean up in the bath as so grubby and watched a rubbish film on lovefilm whilst eating pizza. A great day with my girls
Lovely day that sounds and love the pics. Wendy House looks gorgeous
thankyou
lovely
We thought the after pictures didn’t look any different but i see now you were mid updating!
