Happy Day

Well, we have survived to the end of the school week. Sure has been a busy one.

Aaron got a 3rd at the zone swimming sports. Alexia got sunburnt playing at the estuary on her biology trip. Weatherwise we have had some fantastic temperatures this week - in the high 20's.

Happy Birthday to Avonside Girls High School. The whole school celebrated 80 years today with a fashion parade of the old uniforms by the teachers - apparently really funny especially the principal wearing the current uniform (complete with IPod, sunglasses, cell phone etc). Then each form class had a can of drink, easter eggs and birthday cake. The girls were just buzzing when I picked them up after school - they just loved it. The photos are going to be put on the internet so that should be interesting.

Today I went to a crop at Tanya's and worked on my Book of Me. Tanya worked on my Circle Journal and now have it in my hot little hands. It makes for very funny reading and will share it over the weekend. Am really happy with it and thanks everyone for their contributions. I just love it.

Have been to the nursery with Andrew after work and we have bought a few plants to go in the garden over the weekend. The traffic was horrific with everyone leaving for their Easter holidays and we had to do a big detour round the block for what is normally a 2 minute drive up Marshlands Road.

When we got home it was to find that Alexia had cooked tea for us. Any tea that I don't have to think about, plan and cook is like a 3 course dinner and she was pretty pleased with herself. Is now arguing with Andrew about her cooking the meals versus them all going round to Nana's for meals when I am on scrap camp. Not my problem - they can fight it out amongst themselves. LOL

A special note to our resident "Angelgurl" - have a fantastic birthday tomorrow. Love hearing what you have been up to and look forward to hearing what happens tomorrow. Have a good one.

Happy Easter everyone.
