What we've been up to...#2

We've been enjoying more of Daddy's company this week as he has had a short break from work. We've been out and about on day trips and enjoying the good weather.

Later that evening, Zachary was allowed to stay up to watch the England match against Tunisia whilst enjoying his well earned prize for completing the Donkey Sanctuary World Cup trail.

Unfortunately the sweets were already gone before kick-off

We had a lovely day in Dawlish Warren at the beach and amusements...

Jory loves to drive

Here we are at the HALF home education group this week, the theme of which was birds:

Making bird kites

Zachary runs around to make his kite fly

Making Cheerio bird feeders to hang in the garden

Egg decorating

This week we also visited the new Ikea in Exeter for the first time. There is a creche which takes children aged 3+, so we happily dropped off the twins and Zachary before looking around. It was the shortest hour ever for us, but I think the ladies in the creche seemed a bit exhausted when we returned.

Ptolemy had a great time with Mummy and Daddy to himself

We decided to stay for our tea so we could sample the famous Swedish meatballs (and hot dogs) 

Zachary had a nice trip out with Daddy to the House of Marbles where you can watch them blowing their own glass and watch some giant marble runs. He also bought some new marbles for his collection.

On Friday was FAB club at Belmont Church where all the family come to have a meal and the kids do some fun activities.

Delicious pasta bolognese
