Our day started with an Aunty A pancake breakfast. The boys helped in their own inimitable way. Of course we had to have our normal face competition.
They were very yummy and we were very late finishing them. We got dressed and the three kids played outside in the snow..................
.....................before we made our way to the Hamlet's Community Centre. The boys did some crafts for the start of the Winter Carnival. The lady organising the craft table was a local artist, very eccentric, but the boys had fun making three snowman each.
While the boys were creating, AA, Huffle and I went out and around the Community Centre creating the questions for the Scavenger Hunt next Saturday. We found lots of facts, wrote them down and then went to see how the boys were getting on. They spent ages crafting and we finally left with our snowmen and went off to another town to introduce AA to the delights of Five Pin Bowling.
Small won the first game and Smallest won the second game (just a half a game as our time ran out). We had a lot of fun. Aunty A is now an expert at choosing the correct colour ball and an expert in wearing bowling shoes.
There were plenty of strikes and spares.
We came home via the supermarket for some essentials for dinner. Once home, we made pasta from scratch. Everyone took part. Making the pasta dough. Rolling it through the Pasta machine. We had Pesto, Tomato Sauce and a bowl of Arugula/Rocket. AA cooked up some lovely vegetables and I made a massive Garlic Baguette.
While we were finishing off dinner, the boys played with their Lego. They finished off Smallest's Star Wars ship.
A lovely dinner was eaten and then when we cleared everything away, we sat and watched Lemony Snickett and ate Angel Delight, Jelly and Brownies.
