Yesterday we went out socially for the first time in about a week. We were lucky enough to get better just before the Polkadot's Body Bop concert at Vauxhall School. Maya is amazed that her friend Brooklyn's parents are rock stars. Lat night the kids asked me to tell them a story about the Carebears and the Polkadots. Maya said she wanted a Polkadot Dez doll and Max said he wanted a Polkadot Sarah doll.
This morning we went on a field trip with Playcente to fly kites at the top of Mt Victoria. Our Placyentre is located at the base of Mt Victoria in Devonport (for some of our photos of Mt Victoria click here) so while everyone else enjoyed a nice walk up to the top we decided to not push ourselves so we drove to the top. It was the prefect place for kite flying. The weather thankfully cooperated with blue skies and no rain. Each kid was given a plastic shopping bag tied at the handles with string. The wind was perfect to fill them up with air and make a lovely rustling sound.
***Arughhhhh!!!! Just now as I was writing a small bird flew into our house and flew around the living room. This had happened at least three times since moving here, but this bird was not as trusting of me as the previous birds had been. He fought all my efforts to help him outside....which is hard in a small house with large picture windows. I felt like Mitchell on Modern family. ****
This kids are taking a nice long nap for while I am very glad, so that I can get ready for our trip Playcentre weekend trip to Camp Benzton. Ah....I've lost my train of though after trying to save that bird, which I was finally able to take outside. Lots of fun photos to come....
