All in all a lot of crazy, happy fun was had.  Two hours - after which I collapsed in the bath with a cup of tea - and then we curled up by the fire and watched Mousehunt to recover from our busy week!!

Other Friday memories....

On Friday I took part in a special 'Random Act of Kindness' day in memory of a beautiful girl called Kelsey Preston.  Sadly kelsey passed away two years ago - complications from Diabetes.

Her Mom had taken the Brave Girls Soul Restorations class with me.

In memory of Kelsey, her family have started an annual day of RAK's where they ask all their friends and family to commit to a random act of kindness in Kelseys name.  

Abigail and I created lots of little notes filled with love and motivation - and then Susannah and I left them in different places around our town :)  

Hopefully they will be found by people, and will make them smile :)  

On Friday night Susannah and I headed out to get the last things needed for Abigails birthday party - we had fun shopping - and taking silly pictures:

Friday homeschool fun!!

On Friday we went to the gymnastics drop in session with some of our homeschool friends.

It was fun although we left a little early as we were all tired and Laurence had messaged me to say he was sick.  

We spent the afternoon at home pottering about - Sam had fun with science - messy science - with baking soda, corn starch, milk, vinegar, dish soap and food colouring!
