First Week Over

Well the first week of the holidays is now over.

The boys have spent a few days just chilling, and hanging with their friends.

David has been feeling a little under the weather for a few days, with a heavy head cold.

Tom has been into work for one day, and will go again next week.

Summer Holidays

Today marks the start of the summer holidays from school.

The boys go back on Sept 3.

This first week will be spent just chilling and recharging batteries apart from a trip to the dentist for a checkup.

I will be making lists of what mini projects I would like to achieve whilst we have this break.

I hope to have a couple of baking days to get some supplies into the freezer for when needed.

Dave is having a week off towards the end of the holidays and we will have some family days out. Other than that at present nothing has been planned.

We are not going away as we are saving as much as possible to be hopefully able to go abroad next year posibly to Spain or Italy.

Secondary School Taster DAys

For the next 3 days David is going to the Secondary School he will be going to in September for "taster days".

He was excited and not phased by this prospect at all this morning.

It gives the children an insight into what they will be doing when they move from Primary to Secondary School.

The biggest change for him will be having to get up an hour earlier than usual to get ready and catch the bus at 8am, he's only usually just got up at that time.
