Aunty A's Summer Visit

I woke up this morning early and then couldn't get back to sleep. (Huffle said I was too excited at the thought of Aunty A coming today).

We sat down for breakfast and Smallest spilled a whole jug of juice all over the table, it spilt through the gaps and all over the floor. Sticky table, sticky chairs, sticky floor. So once we had finished mopping all the mess and had breakfast, I mopped the kitchen floor, then the lounge and then the hall. Oh well it needed doing anyway.

We all had showers and then the boys played on the computer while I sorted the washing and made some sandwiches for the ride home. We didn't have a banner today but the boys both drew pictures for her onthe way in the car (which was great because they were occupied, quiet-ish and happy).

As we were driving along the highway we watched the planes coming in and wondered which one was Aunty A's. She landed two minutes early. The traffic was horrendous. Not sure why? Long Weekend? Anyway, we got to the airport on time, parked and went to find her. We waited in departure at first and then realised we were in the wrong place. Actually Small realised. We went downstairs and didn't have to wait too long.

Patiently waiting

She came out, we hugged her (well Smallest went all silly and ran away and hid under his hat - but not for long), and went and found our car. The drive home was uneventful. Lots of chattering and catching up.

It was about 34* today so when we got home and Aunty A emptied her treasures for us............

Three bras (for me! I ordere some and sent them to her address - useful!). Yorkshire Tea, Taylor's Coffee, four different lots of multipack Cadbury's chocolate, fudge and many many Angel Delights. When she emailed us to ask what we wanted Huffle and I couldn't think of anything (apart from the tea and coffee) so we requested an Angel Delight. Well she came up trumps and bought us lots, including an Ice Cream one. We made it up but it won't be ready till 12 midnight.

We made a pot of tea, the boys put on their swim shorts and then we went up to the pool. The boys swam and jumped in while we drank tea.

It wasn't long before we got too hot and got our stuff and went in too.

We had several whirlpools which really worked our thighs and knees, and then a nice relax onthe floaty things.

Then a pop out and a cup of tea before jumping back in again and starting all over again. The boys are loving having Aunty A here already.

We stayed here till it started getting cloudy and the dark clouds came.

 

The cloud formation was amazing

Then a big giant walked past.....

Ahhh there are those clouds again?

We came in, showered had dinner and then of course we had to play basketball and football, until the mosquitos drove us indoors where we played a couple of games of Deal Monopoly.

We said Football, not windmilling!

The boys went to bed. Aunty A had to read to Small, Huffle read to Smallest and I got ten minutes off.

Hello to Miss Frisky (Aunty A's mum) who we think will be reading while AA is here. The boys got their hugs, thank you x
