An early start!

Well, for us it was anyway.

I checked my emails this morning at 8.15am and there was one from a friend saying "come over right now! our trees are being chopped down this morning". So 5mins later I'd managed to get the kids dressed (and myself) and we were out the door.

We then checked out a new week old lamb, a bolshy goat called Molly, a noisy but very cool goose, some curious and friendly alpacas from over the neighbours fence who let me pat their noses and a bumblebee nest in a pile of soil.

We then had a little play with their 7wk old kittens. This was Danielle's favourite one.

And that was all by 10am!

After lunch the kids got out the Memory cards again and we had a few games before they moved on to stacking them.

A friend came and played in the afternoon. (I was expecting a surprise visitor for the kids at 1pm, but he didn't turn up, so we'll have to wait for another day).

I read another chapter of the book on the boy growing up in China.
