Run run run

Church day today

but before we mention that...fa1 and fa2 both took part in the marathon today. well worth a sentence in the blog i think. how proud of them are we? fit to bursting :)

We on, on the other hand woke up at 8.30 to the delightful smiles of Plum and found only Bean was up and out of bed. It was a quick breakfast and washed and dressed so that we could be a church for 10.30am. Again, church saw us separate as a family going to be with different groups but all happily under one roof with our church family. Bean and mummy both learnt about trusting God in their respective classes, daddy completed his study on Revelation and Pumpkin continued the story of Abraham and made a mini tent.

We had a BBQ at ours with a few friends and some extra smalls. It was a great afternoon. The boys played bows and arrows and swords and one of their friends made arrows from short bamboo canes and a target from cardboard and some paints and string to tie it to a tree stump. We all played a mixed game of hide and seek and tag that Bean made up. And we ate a lot of food.

Pumpkin went indoors at one point and played with the entire contents of Plum's toy box but mostly we were all enjoying the garden. Except for Plum who slept for over two hours. Rather unusually but probably due to the fact that she woke twice last night which is also becoming a rarity.
