Friday 12th June: A warm sunny day. We began the day with piano lessons for all three boys. After we had walked home we completed our Charlie and the Chocolate Factory requirements for this week, practised counting to 10 in Spanish and did some times table practice. We also looked at the anatomy of teeth to finish off that topic.
By now it was lovely in the garden so Jonathan and I dug up some yams he had planted months ago, did some weeding (which the chickens had for a snack!) and planted garlic and transplanted brussel sprout plants. We also moved the chickens and raked over the area where they graze and it soon looked much tidier.
In the afternoon we went out for a drive and picked up some pine cones. While we were out we saw and photographed a farmer ploughing the fields.
As we drove back into Waimate the siren sounded to summon the firemen, and I managed to get a photo of one of the trucks as it came out of the fire station. We visited the library but as is often the case, left with more books than we had returned. In fact we have 95 books out at the moment! Once home the boys cycled in the back garden. For tea we made our own pizzas, and had an extra-long story-time at bedtime.
