Another One Bites the Dust......

School holidays that is...and it's been a bit hit and miss.

The weather has been up and down, and so have we.  It's been a somewhat quiet holidays, spent mostly at home, vegging out and not doing much.  Part of that has been due to the weather, though we did manage to start out on a walk to Red Rocks when the weather looked okay, but got wet on the way back to the car when the weather changed.  We went to Queen Elizabeth Park in Masterton, but that was our only 'major' excursion.  The boys had fun checking out the skate park there, so was good that they took their wheels so they could actually try stuff out.

We had movie days, complete with rentals from the video store, and also a trip into town to see Madagascar 3.  There was lots of screaming and shouting...and sadly not only from the boys.  There were also some great times had too, and hopefully the boys have some nice memories to share when they are older.  I've managed to get sick for probably the second time this year, which has made the last few days of the holidays 'boring'...though thankfully dad has been home to pick up some of the slack this weekend.

I think everyone is looking forward to getting back 'in routine'....and Alex can't stop talking about going to school, even though that's another five weeks away yet.  I'm looking forward for a chance to try and recover a bit from this cold or whatever I have...though I have heaps of stuff I need to catch up on.  Why is it, that when the kids are home all the time, all domestic stuff seems to go out the window..or does that only happen in my house?
