End of the Holidays

It is hard to beleive that the holidays are over. I am so not ready to go back to work. I am very apprehensive about this term - it probably has something to do with the fact that I really don't know what is going to happen to me or where I will be. I saw a specialist on Friday who was very sympathic to my concerns and will have a report for me in the next couple of days. The holidays have been good, I didn't quite achieve all the goals I set for the holidays but I came close to achieving them which is a good thing. I have also had a little time for relaxation, haven't managed to scrapbook, but I have read and we have knitted.

Just a few photos from our week.
We've eaten way too much chocolateI have done loads and loads of washing
I've read a book
We've had close friends come to stay.
Steve spent three days fishing with four other guys from church. They had a great time and caught a heap of fish as well as a couple of mud crabs - Yum Yum.

Us girls - well be have been obsessed with


KNITTING KNITTING KNITTING


Amanda, Chloe and I have been on a knitting frenzy this past week. Amanda has been knitting beanies and scraves, Chloe is knitting her first scarf, and I'm knitting a knee rug. The girls are into watching "One Tree Hill" so we've spent quite a bit of time in front of the TV whilst we've knitted the last couple of days. Another of my girlfriends came over this afternoon with her son and by the end o the afternoon, Amanda and Chloe had taught him to knit also. Thought I would share the photos. Ben getting some knitting lessons
Will have to share the finished projects although I suspect that you will be waiting a while to see mine,

When Sarah was home the other week, she was keen for Steve to get our little mini bike out so that she could have a ride. Steve had it fixed last September, and both Chloe and Pete have had some fun on it in the last six months. Sarah was keen to have a ride also and of course I had to get the camera out to record the event.
Now I have a record of all my kids reverting to their childhood and riding the mini bike.
I am not the only one who has documented evidence of this. Amanda was also keen to capture the experience.

Need to head off to bed (not sure why I always seem to do this late at night) but I have an early start in the morning.
