Sundown adventure land.

We went to sundown adventure land for Goog's 6th birthday. Being a school day, the place was virtually deserted so the kids could go on the rides as many times as they liked without having to queue :)

he he, I tried to get some action shots. This was the first time that they had been through this ride so weren't sure what to expect :)





This room actually smells of mint!



In the witch's house from Hansel and Gretel.

Home of Jack in the bean stalk
Including the cow :)




fun in the stocks

And the last ride was the sleigh ride. It was my favourite :)

Googs had a wonderful birthday outing.

Celebrating the warm weather!

The weather was 28oC so we just had to get out and find ourselves some water. We ended up visiting Chatsworth house, well the river not the house :)Googs has started a conker collection.


Off to see if the chunk of wood floats
sheep herding!
watching the big fish under the bridge.









Kiki came running back to me: "sigh* I am so sorry mom, I tried and tried but I just couldn't catch a sheep for supper" :D

Spiderwebs, corriander seeds, and cars

We have had the most gorgeous weather for the last week or so which means that we have been able to carry on having our lessons outside :) It has been slightly strange to have very warm summery weather while sitting among fallen leaves and conkers...not that I am complaining!

With the spider season upon us, we decided to make some conker spiderwebs.


And pick the coriander seeds.

Since the others were at home shots I decided to add this picture of the children. I love the way they all play so well together despite the age range, it makes me smile every time I see it.
