Quick Round Up


A week ago - Mike's Birthday also Fathers Day



Went out for a nice meal

Then of course watched the footie.


The  week has been a mixture of sunshine, illness, trip to the dentist, school issues that needed to be sorted (now sorted) visits to my Dad, cooking, cleaning, football and of course lots of rain.

Just to prove that the sun did come out -  James Pirating out in the garden without his top on


Did some water colours with James - he did this painting all on his own and he was really pleased with it.



On Saturday we got up quite early and went into Exeter to get Danny some new football boots, got into the shopping centre at 8.30am so had a lovely latte and the kids had some brekky.

Then onto James's main event of the weekend - Rugby Tots.  His first session was at 10.15 for 45 minutes and he loved it.  So have signed him up for the rest of the term, bit expensive I feel, but he doesn't do any other activities at the moment and he really did have a great time.  So beans of toast for the rest of the week lol.

We then went to my Aunt and Uncles so my Uncle could tune Danny's guitar which he is learning to play at school. 

Today

Went to The Waie Inn, Becky and Danny played football with Mike, James played in the park. Becky did have a moment of being young again by giving into temptation and going down the slide


Playing Football




and in the park


School seems to be going OK, always a few things that we have to keep an eye on, but they are both still happy enough, it seems.  Danny has been picked for the athletics team to represent the school in a competition next week, and Becky has been told her set for her Maths GCSE lessons for next year, which is Set 2, so she will be taking the the higher level of the exam.   Very proud of both of them, not only how well they are doing academically, but also socially.

Now - James is having a pre-match nap, Mike is cooking Roast Chicken, and hopefully we will all be ready for the Euro 2012 Fourth Quarter Final - England v Italy - COME ON ENGLAND!
