Grandchildren

The day after the epic road trip I stepped in and provided last minute childcare for Kath.  I had intended to have a rest day, but the phrase, " If you want to hear God laugh then tell Him your plans!" kept ringing in my head :-)  We met roughly half way for a Mary hand over and once we were 'home' Mary and I headed to the library to join Dave and Pip.  After lunch the girls played outside interspersed with reading the books from the library.

On Sunday I took both girls to church and then we made pinwheel scone based pizzas for lunch.  Some friends visited after lunch and part way through the afternoon there was a terrific thunderstorm.

On Monday the girls worked on a painting project inspired by the 'Flat Stanley' books that we had been reading.  After lunch we spent the afternoon with a friend and the girls had a great time on the 'slip and slide' followed by play dough fun.  It was most definitely a full on time and boy was I shattered once Tuesday rolled round.  As much as I love Mary it was good to hand her back to mum and revert back to just dealing with two kids!




 Slip and slide fun.


 Prepping a Flat Mary.





 Flat Mary and Flat Pip :-)







On Friday we spent the afternoon with Sara, Tom and Ollie.  Sara provided the main course and I made blackberry crumble served with cream for dessert.  I think it is safe to say that Ollie loved it:

What a fun project with the Flat Mary and Pip! The slip and slide looks so much fun- Pip is a good advertisement for it!

It was so nice talking with you all that time ago at the beginning of August! Pip's and Mary's flat drawings of themselves are wonderful. Everyone has grown so much :)
