We are busy packing up for a weekend away with our Home Ed bunch. It's only about 15 miles away but we seem to be taking stacks of stuff, most of it toys and craft bits!! Still it should be fun, we go over to Arnside Youth Hostel and take it over for a weekend, we went last year and we hardly saw Eilidh all weekend. Everyone mucks in with cooking, cleaning and making sure the kids are alright so it's really nice. We'll probably come back absolutely shattered but in other ways it is strangely relaxing!!

Not much happened yesterday, we pottered about doing this and that, made some Chocolate Brownies to take with us today and the kids managed to eat half of them so we have just had to make some more!!

We got two bin bags full of clothes for Ben the other day off Freecycle. They are brilliant, some of them hardly worn and all nicely washed and ironed so we were really chuffed. That means he's going to be well dressed for a while at least!! It also meant we could pass on all his ones he is growing out of, he seems to be shooting up at the moment.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY MUM!!!! LOVE YOU LOADS!!! (just in case you read this in the next couple of days)
