Clothes make the Clan

Today, as it was a Lay Preachers’ Sunday, Nick was home. We had a leisurely start before deciding to all go for a walk together. Nick had the brainwave of driving to Millennium Forest and starting our walk there, but unfortunately when we got there it was raining and not conducive for walking, so we just came home. We did a bit of this and that in the morning – the boys watched another video, Nick read, and I beaded. We took our lunch of chicken burgers to Rosemary Plain, but they only took about five minutes to eat – then what? Aaron needed a poo, and although there was a toilet nearby there was no toilet roll, so we popped across to Harry and Jenny’s house which is quite close by. They were just finishing lunch, and we had pudding with them.

When it came time to get ready for our evening service, I dressed first in a red jacket, navy shirt and cream pants. Nick came out the room wearing cream chinos and a dark blue shirt, and when he put his black and red leather jacket on I saw that we looked co-ordinated. To make matters worse, Aaron had copied Caleb in his outfit of blue-sleeved shirt with red vest over and cream pants. Doh. It was the Clevely Co-ordinates. We went outside to take a photo because it looked so naf. No one commented at church though so perhaps it wasn’t obvious to them (or they were too polite to laugh).
