Sunny Days

Far away friend came for a visit today, much excitement for the small people! We dragged her to the park where she landed the job of carrying 2 scooters home!!!!

J went for a sleepover at Gabas that evening, where he ate the cupboards bare!!!

I forget that as we are always all together, sometimes the boys need some space from each other and from me. He went to the park solo in the morning before coming back home to reunite with his brothers!

Whilst J was away, A and I had a look at some Egyptian history. We read about hieroglyphics and cuneiform, we made a clay tablet that A wrote his name on in markings. Unfortunately before i could get a picture it got broken up and squashed.
We also read about the Pharaoh that built and was buried in the 'Great Pyramid of Giza'. How the bodies were prepared for mummification and burial and the lengths they went to to stop grave robbers. We also found a YouTube clip of a tour of the Great Pyramid that A watched.

Later in the afternoon we went to the garden centre to pick up some plants and bits for the garden and our new mini pond!! Two garden centres later we came home and potted up some tomatoes and the pond.

A bit of team work action after dinner of window cleaning.......unfortunately I know what I shall be doing later :-)
