After last night’s unusually late bedtime, Aaron peeled out of bed just before 8, with very puffy eyes, and Caleb was fast asleep until 8.45! He came down as bright as a bird, feeling very pleased with himself for having slept so late. In fact, it was the first thing he told his father when he walked in the door after church – and every person he saw today since! The boys didn’t have much time to kill this morning before tenzees, and then I put on a DVD for them – we didn’t hire one for them this weekend, so they watched Bionicles. Lunch was left overs from the braai – we had potato salad, pasta salad and savoury rice – and bacon-wrapped sausages under the grill. After that we scattered – Caleb and I played checkers, which he lost and sulked over for a while (we're still working on character issues here), and Aaron and Nick had some rough and tumbling in the lounge.
In the late afternoon we went out to check on Steve and Maureen’s house, which Nick has to keep an eye on while they are away on holiday. We used the opportunity to take a family photo, trying to take advantage of the splendid scenery, but couldn’t incorporate it without getting the grey sky in. On the way home we called in at Gavin and Tammy and stayed for tea and pancakes, and I was treated to two songs by Nick and Tammy which will be for the third album.
