Wednesday 21 January 2009

It's middle of the week. The kids day off from school today. I always feel like it's Monday on Thursday because the kids have every Wednesday off school. Andrew has been playing Pokemon card game with Samuel all day which he promised to do. Ella has tidied and packed up her room very neatly. She likes to have things organised.

We're coming into a transition period. We've got a lot happening in the next few weeks and there's lots to organise.

Can you believe the first month of 2009 is nearly over already? We've booked our first ski trip for next week. We've been saying we're going ski-ing for ages and have never got around to actually doing anything about it. So we've booked 4 nights accommodation at Ax les Thermes in the Pyrenees, booked ski lessons and organised ski equipment hire. The kids have all their ski clothes, Andrew and I just have to get our stuff together. We did the rounds of a few sports shops the other day and surprise surprise there's hardly any ski clothes left anywhere. We've left it to the last minute and now there's nothing to buy so we'll have to go for the really ugly stuff that's left over.
