And we’re back from Christmas and Summer Camp. And Dad is back to work. After a while having the tree set up, and the presents coming in underneath, we finally found ourselves all in the same place long enough to put the star on top (Mum took the photo).
Dad had Puff with him on Friday morning, and he was explaining the latest Pokemon Go techniques to very patient people at work.
Dad went on a couple of errands with Huff for some father-daughter time. She was very helpful.
Christmas Eve we had Mum’s side of the family over: the kids had lunch at the kids table.
Christmas day was church, then lunch with Dad’s family, then visiting a family friend. The next day, we packed up the Christmas tree, packed up the baggage. Before we new it, we were at Summer Camp for the week.
Puff read around 9 books during the week Some of them by headlamp.
At New Year’s Eve the kids stayed up and watched the midnight fireworks. Just barely. Puff made it through with only a bit of a snooze.
Huff didn’t make it quite so far.
The next day, though, she bounced.
The kids had a great time at camp. Huff even said she wished the whole of the school holidays could be camp.
One thing that was missing was pancakes. Dad made pancakes on the January public holiday, with a range of different toppings.
Dad took Huff to the movies to watch Moana.
Puff assembled one of his Christmas presents – a solar powered robot.
One more week of work, and then Dad has a couple of week’s holidays!
