While we were being lazy sleeping in this morning Ben and Eilidh were busy playing in Eilidh's room. I was just thinking how good they were being when Ben appears by the side of the bed telling me exactly what they have been up to!!? Well, they had decided to play with their new plasticine on the bedroom carpet, on his new wooden garage and then decided to try and clean it up with wet toilet paper. This got me out of bed pretty quickly!! Fortunately it wasn't quite as bad as I had imagined, but there was a trail of wet toilet paper from the bathroom to Eilidh's room and half his new wooden cars had been 'buried' in a horrible looking lump of brown plasticine. Great!!
We decided that we all needed to go out and get some fresh air after breakfast so went off to Windermere Lake for a wander. It seems everyone else had the same idea, we couldn't believe it was so busy, the few cafe's and shops that were open were heaving! It's funny being in a big tourist area, after summer holidays end usually we all feel as if the area becomes ours again but this year it seems to have been pretty busy all year around. Still, we used to be the tourists so I guess we can't complain too much!!! We had a lovely, very windy walk around part of the lake and the kids had a chance to run off some steam and get some fresh air.
When we got back Ben decided he wanted to do some painting of his new dinosaur moulds and Eilidh got on with painting some fairy figures while I made dinner. Then it was just eating and watching Monsters Inc. then off to bed for the kids.
