Here there and everywhere

Had a busy day today, which started earlier than normal with Emily waking at about 4 and not wanting to go back to sleep - she was coming up with all the excuses - toilet, drink, scared, want a cuddle, dropped Minnie, toilet again blah blah blah. Broken sleep really knocks you about when you're not used to it... I was getting so mad!

We spent the morning cutting and sticking and printing and laminating - getting ready for our Primary Leadership Training next week. We then headed off to the shops before Lani had swimming. She was once again trying to convince Emily that she should come swimming too, telling her that she will be able to touch and that she will hold her hand! Quite cute really, but Emily wasn't getting on board - she is still happy to sit on the side with Zak! (Which is lucky because Lani doesn't realise that Em's not allowed to just join in now even if she did want too!)

We picked up Aunty Elle about 5pm and went to visit Grandad - just to make sure he is doing okay on his lonesome! It looked like he was taking full advantage of having the driveway to himself and was parked dead in the middle on a strange angle! The kids were excited to see him and had a little play. We then took off for Leigh and Anges where the kids stayed for a couple of hours while Elle and I went to the Relief Society Birthday Party at Blanches house. It was a great night, we played some fun games and got to know a few things about each other that we would never have otherwise known! I'm so thankful for the friendships we make through Relief Society and that it gives us the opportunity to serve each other.

It sounds like the girls had a fun time with Jenna and Locke but all looked very tired when we picked them up! Thanks heaps for looking after them Carmichael Family! x
