Harvest Feasting...

Today seemed to involve a lot of washing and tumbling; pinning, un-pinning and re-pinning, Kelly will know what I mean by that; as well as a lot of time at school!

The Harvest Festival was surprisingly fun; 2 out 3 kids had speaking parts, but unfortunately they didn't find out until this morning, so I was only armed with my phone...


After the assembly, there was feasting...


Paella cooked by the headmaster always goes down a treat!

But when we got home, I had a mild breakdown about the state of the playroom, and spent 2 unscheduled hours sorting through tubs of what can only be described as crap!  I gave up in the end, but it's on my hit list!

I think I am a little tired and emotional!  I stayed up until the early hours to watch the America's Cup - TeamNZ all the way round here, so having to hear, over and over again today about the US win, (ahem, Aussie skipper and local Brit tactician?!), I probably need an early night to get over it.

But first I need to get back to stitching on the handles of my Anniversary Weekend bag, those babies are not going to sew themselves!

  3. Toys/crap so know what you mean. I'm always having a cow over the state of my kids rooms. Does your playroom have a door? If so close it!

  4. The headmaster cooks Paella? Can't wait to see your bag! My living room sounds like your play room and I can't even blame any kids :-)
