We had a day at home, quiet and very rainy. Amazingly no kid completely went cabin crazy. I didn't go crazy! We painted a bit, decorated Marie biscuits with icing and ate them and at least had an hour on the bikes in the driveway - the rest of the garden was way too wet. We had a great 2 hour nap and i managed through it all to at least tidy the puzzles a bit and sort them out. I swear just keeping the toys together and sorted can be a full time job.
Hunter was a busy boy while I minded the kids - he cleaned and defrosted the second fridge in the garage and did quite a bit of tidying there too.
So that was Freedom day in a nutshell- now I am sitting with my glass of Yonder Hill Merlot (our "house wine" at present) waiting for him to braai a lekker steak. Cheers!
Cheers! :D

Cheers!
We are still experiencing some rain. Very typical in Spring time over here, but at least when the sun is out the weather is gorgeous! The pollen is now also more under control. Yeah
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Freedom Day, Sweet Cat and Family! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Freedom Day :-)
ReplyDeleteI know lekker (dutch siblings-in-law, yes 2 of them, both my brother and sister married dutch people), but what's braai? Is it barbeque?
Mimbles - I hear that the closest you get to a SA braai is an Aussie backyard barbeque. Not sure how they exactly differ though.

ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day! I always forget about Marie art... I need to do that with the kids!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great day...Freedom day....the day after my Princess arrived, a day I will always remember..
ReplyDeleteIs Freedom Day similar to July 4th in the States? Either way, if it involves food and a "good" beverage then I am all for it!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the pics of the kiddos...seriously, could they be any cuter?!?!?!!!
Oi, another public holiday...and I love it. Yesterday I wanted to spend a bit of time in my study/scrap room...but the kids came around and that was it.
ReplyDeleteGreat lazy day at home!
ReplyDeleteYay.
Freedom day sounds fun! I may have to google it - I have never heard of it but it sounds a little like our 4th of July.
ReplyDeleteOOh Marie biscuit fun, must remember that. I think i will do it with the kids this weekend.
