10th and 11th January 2009.

11th Jan. Woke up in time to get organised for Little Athletics but we are going to have to get used to waking up earlier again. Enjoyed a bit of sunshine at Little Athletics but they really need to get some more shade, it was a bit pathetic in the heat to expect kids to sit out in the sun. Kids did really well at all their events and we got some personal bests which made their days. Also nice chatting to Tracey and Heather and catching up on their christmas and new year stories.

From Little Athletics we went on to visit Denise for her birthday, 49 today. I find it hard to believe she has a 33 year old son. Kids gave her homemade cards and plant pots they made but I am a bit upset that what I ordered never arrived on time, at least now I know to order things off the net alot sooner than I need them. We stayed for cake and some drinks but left so as we didn't bump into any other family members there. Luke, James, Amy, Denise and Sarah, (And Simba the Dog).James, Luke, Simba, Amy, Holly and Sarah.

Then home to finish off the hallway cleaning, I am impressed with the house, it's looking rather nice if I may say so. I doubt others would realise but I know it's alot cleaner already, just there is no where to sit in the lounge as thats where everything without a home or unwanted is going for now.


10th Jan. Finished Holly's room today, not that you can tell as she messed it up as soon as she walked in. Also made a great start on the hallway.
For dinner we went to Hubo's and Cheryl's, knowing it was not just a BBQ but a little athletics meeting and Hubo was trying to suck us into the committee, well it worked. It was a lovely meal and we did end up on the committee as members. Holly went to Denises instead of the BBQ, but the other kids had a ball playing Wii, DS lits, Nintendo, Badmington, darts.....
