Hair today.........

Today was a PA Day which meant the boys were at home. The weather started as rainy. There didn't appear to be any rain falling but it was very wet! I got soaked just putting the recycling out. The boys are so excited at the moment, they don't know what to do with themselves. We checked the weather and we weren't due to get freezing rain until this afternoon so we took the kids for hair cuts.

This is them before......

Huffle worked from home today (his last day at work until the New Year). He had quite a stressful day but Moo and I made sure he had a lunch break and had a Baileys waiting for him when he officially 'knocked off' from work.

Once haircuts were finished, we popped to the supermarket and picked up some essentials. It was still raining but much heavier. We went to the thrifty store to get Moo some reading material and Smallest chose a puzzle. Then it was back home and showers for the boys while Moo and I wrapped presents. We all had lunch then the kids tidied their mess in the basement and played on the computer.

Moo made Mince Pies and Jam Tarts while I started on the gingerbread house again.

Moo had to mix it and knead it as I decided to stick two of my fingers on to the element in the oven. "The toast is burning" Huffle said. OR IS IT MY HAND? The gingerbread house took ages as I cooked all the sides individually and also tried out Mary Berry's 'stain glass windows' which worked very effectively.

Moo made flapjack while I faffed around with the gingerbread and then we cleared all our stuff away.

As the boys were playing so well together, we managed three games of table tennis and a game of scrabble before Huffle finished work. The boys stopped playing and we all had dinner.

More table tennis was played, Smallest's jigsaw was done and then Moo and I started a grown up jigsaw. The boys went to bed.
