Today we went to see Susannah perform in her schools talent show. She did amazingly well and performed The Band Perry's song 'If I Die Young'. She played guitar and sang all by herself. I recorded it so hopefully will be able to upload it somehow either here or on Facebook.
So proud of her :)
All the students in the show did great - I think they are amazingly brave to even just get up in front of everyone, so well done to all of them!!
After the show we had to head in to town to get a few supplies for a craft the kids want to do. Abigail makes me laugh now because every time I come up with an idea for something to do - or surprise them with a new activity, she will say 'Pinterest'????? Hahahaha
As if it is the only place I EVER get ideas now - lol!! Well, ok, MOST of the great ideas I get now ARE from Pinterest, but that isn't the point :)
Anyway we went to get salt and chalk for a craft we are doing tomorrow - and we stopped off on the way to get Sam his favourite soup. He hasn't eaten much this week as he hasn't felt too well - so I promised him his chicken noodle soup!
Sam wanted me to instagram his donut - it was very pretty but soooo BRIGHT!!
At the store I finally found one of the gorgeous big wooden windmill's that I have wanted for so long! I think they are gorgeous and wanted one to brighten up the crate on the back deck while there are no flowers. It was the last one there, but I grabbed it and for $2. was very very happy :)
I LOVE it :)
Right now it is raining and TOO windy outside - and more like October, so I have the windmill sat in the corner of my bedroom. Its so cheery and summery :) Love love LOVE!!! :) Sam carried it back to the car and was soooo HAPPY - he got so excited with how it was spinning round in the wind as he walked!! :)
Tonight was date night. Sam and Abby went to their Dads, Susie spent the evening curled up with Rosie watching Greys Anatomy episodes on dvd. I went out for my date - and had a fabulous time :)
I was home about the same time as the children were though - and we then all curled up on my bed and watched Back to the Future - we were going to watch it earlier this week but people weren't well - so tonight was the night! They all enjoyed it and so tomorrow we will move on to Back to the Future 2 :)
No school tomorrow. Laurence is at the twins tonights and is working tomorrow and all weekend too. No clue what we will do yet - it is supposed to rain all day tomorrow and be cold. We shall see.....
