I woke up this morning when Huffle got up sometime around 6am, then again at 7ish when he left, then at 7:30am when the kids got up, then again when Moo got up. Noisy family!
After breakfast, Moo and I went through all the clothes that no longer fit the boys and sorted them into a 'charity' pile and a 'give away to friends' pile. Moo takes the friends one back for me and we packed the charity stuff into a box for later. Moo also sorted out Smallest's drawers and wardrobe (she loves doing this and at least I know it gets a good sort out twice a year).
We all went off to swimming lessons. Moo and I again had to count laps (we worked out crocs are good for counting!) and time the three different swimmers. They did well. Smallest and his classmate had to wear life jackets and show how they could keep warm.
After swimming we came home, had a quick sandwich and went off to do our list. First stop was the Thrifty store to drop off the clothes and buy a book for Moo. Next was the jewellers. Moo wants to buy me a Pandorra bracelet for my birthday (ages away but she likes to leave presents for those birthdays she will miss) as I lost my charm bracelet before I came out. We didn't do well so she is going to look at home. Next we looked for Small's birthday, presents for home, crocs for the boys, swim shorts and something nice for our picnic tomorrow.
We got home and it was very very hot. 30* with humidity making it feel like 38*. So once we emptied our bags we went straight up to the pool. I bought the boys some snorkelling sets for holiday, so they tried them out.
Next door was mowing and the clouds went all dark so we decided we would mow too. However once I started, next door stopped. The grass was very long but I did half of it (despite running out of petrol again) and then Moo carried on. Between us, we finished behind the barn but behind the house still needs a bit more work and the front still needs doing. We had to stop because it started thundering, lightning and raining. I was Skyping Aunty A and had to rush off to pack the boys in the house and get everything away.
It didn't last long but we started dinner anyway. Huffle came home and we ate. He had had a bad day. We all played UPSET. Moo won (as she did last night too!).
The boys went to bed, we played table tennis and watched Cake Boss and SYTYCD.
Huffle is playing golf tomorrow and for Fathers Day this year we bought him some new golfing shorts. Oh how excited he was this evening prancing around in them saying:- "this part has a separate pocket for my scorecard", "here is a detachable ball marker", "a little separate pocket just for tees, to keep them away from his coins". What a happy bunny he is!
