Keeping up the high standard of performance, the kids were in a play at school. Huff was a golden-egg-laying-chicken.
And Puff was a giant.
Mum had to head up to Coffs Harbour and back, so Dad was in charge of the kids overnight. The night started promisingly for the kids, eating pizza and watching the Gruffalo on TV.
Then we set up the Christmas tree. The kids enjoyed having more-or-less free reign.
We waited until Mum had return to put the star on the tree.
Saturday morning we had breakfast out, then we looked at some birds. Puff desperately wants a pet bird – a cockatiel, and has for months.
After a lot of driving – during which we listened to the first season of the podcast story for kids, the unexplained disappearance of Mars Patel, which they enjoyed a lot – we returned with a new bird and a new-to-us cage.
The next day we went to a family bbq after church , and they had a pool so Mum and the kids had a swim.
Both kids had a chance to go under the water: here’s Mum and Puff’s turn.
And then on Monday night we managed to fit in an evening of bingo!
Only 8 more days of school left for the year!
