Thats the end of that one

Yay - both girls are finished exams and must say they are very relieved about it all. Alexia is all for burning her years geography work as she is not taking it next year. Now for the waiting game until January. They should both be OK though.

Its the end of another busy week and am exhausted. Am fed up with running kids here, there and everywhere. Am glad that we haven't got anything on this weekend but are off to the Santa Parade on Sunday - one of our family traditions that luckily everyone is still into. Just trying to think of a new angle for taking photos so that my scrapbook pages year after year for this are different.

Am putting up the tree tomorrow and kids very excited about it especially Aaron. Advent calender starts and this year they all want the goodies in my fabric one rather than the chocolate ones from the shops.

Rebeccas job is going well and she has her first pay under her belt but bit reluctant to spend it. Told her that everyone is allowed to spend their first one but she's a bit of a saver so this could be difficult for her!!! Not like her mother at all. One of the bonuses of her working is that now Alexia gets to do the babysitting and she thinks that is really cool. Although we did check up on her on Thursday and she didn't answer her phone. Bit of a worry and we had threatened to come round if that happened but turned out she was reading stories and didn't hear it.

Aaron has just got home from the school disco. No dancing with girls for my boy - he's just interested in playing with the glow sticks and seeing which of his friends can drink the most cans of coke. Six by the way and not feeling too good with it. Five for his friend Tom, and he was as high as a kite. Told his mother good luck as we were leaving!

Off to check what Tanya has been up to seeing as she has challenged herself to blog every day in December! SE December Kit revealed tomorrow - can't wait.

yay good luck to the girls for their exams - Im sure they'll be find but they'll be rapt its all over! Ash had her last one yesterday.
awww I used to put the tree up on the 1st Dec too - when did that date sneak up so fast?? Also have an advent calendar that I made years ago that I put lollies in so I guess they will be looking for that soon too.
Hope you have a lovely weekend.

It's such a relief to have exams over - and I bet it is for Mum too!

We are putting our tree up today as well. And I have a felt advent calendar ... I have all the goodies to go inside (chocolates, stickers, Christmas balloons, small ornaments for the tree) so will have to get that up soon!
