I have been up early this morning so i can have a little quiet time before another busy gala day. This is the last week end of galas that we will attend this year,we have one today and one tomorrow. I can't tell you how much we have enjoyed it this year, we always do, but with Molly as Princess and all the work we put into the float, its made it even more special and i have lots pictures to post from it all,(once i get a spare moment!). Next weekend will be the first weekend since February that we have not had anything planned or anything we have to do, the madness thats been the last 6 months is coming to an end, and it will be nice to be able to relax over the summer holidays and just spend time at home doing things with the kids or having more relaxed outings. I have taken 3 days a week off over the holidays, mainly as childcare is is expensive for four kids, which i am glad i did as i am really looking forward to it,we have so many crafts and activity we want to do. I started teaching Molly to crochet last night so she is sat here now working on chains.
Yesterday i went to Ewan's leavers assembly at school, he starts high school in September! It was really nice to see them all reading out what they were going to miss and there were quite a few tears from the leavers and from the other children in the hall. It a fairly small school that Ewan attends and there are only 15 children in his class, all of them are off to the same high school which is nice and his best friend is in the same form group. He was given his record of achievement which had pictures and work from right through school, time has just flown by.
When all the kids got home we made a strawberry cream cake, which was very tasty and had a fake Mc Donalds using some burger boxes and fries boxes i bought ages ago, we watched some films and just chilled out.
Everybody is awake now and its time to get ready for the gala x
