We went to have a look at the competition but this year

Amelia and Joshua overnight stay

Saturday 20 February

Jo and Shane dropped off the kids at
around 2 pm.
Amelia is not well.

We filled up a big cardboard box with books
(Little golden books.)
I had a huge collection.
Amelia is doing a badge for Joey.

We also discover a big ants nest in 
the boxof blocka. Claude had to wash
 them as I must have emptied
a whole can of spray on them.

Then we found another nest inside
some of Claude manuals.
Claude got rid of them as he is retired now
and hopefully won't need them anymore.

By them poor Amelia had a bad headache
and took herself to bed. When I checked on her she was asleep.

Josh played quickly. He made a big floor puzzle
all by himself


Sunday

We found another ants nest, this time in the laundry.

Raining today the children played nicely inside.


I finished knitting Amelia's  blanket.
She worked out the pattern.
Now I have to saw it.


I am still knitting Joshua's squares

Possum

Thursday 18 February

I was sitting on the sofa when I noticed
outside in the pergola a bit of fluff.
I opened it and there was a possum.



It was not happy and moved to the other side.



We couldn't close the pergola as we will have squeeze him.

I don't know if he is our possum from the possum box
or one visiting but I hope it doesn't go in our roof.


New Dress

Wednesday 17 February

Tonight we are going to a concert
at the Opera.
I decided to wear my new dress!!!

Claude bought me this dress to go out 
to lunch with my friends.
(I found it a bit too dressy for club lunches)
