Thaaaaank goodness it's Monday!!

Yikes what a weekend we just had! On Saturday we ended up having not one but two parties that the kids had to go to! Cody got an invitation on Thursday that he had been given previously and had lost so I had to plan how to get the kids to two different parties at two locations at around about the same time! Mika's friend couldn't take her so I had to take Cody first, then Mika then back to wait for Cody's to finish then back to pick up Mika from hers! Luckily they weren't at exactly the same time!
Cody's party was a robot party, very imaginative planning from Cody's friend's dad and the kids just loved it! The invitation invited "robot 39 otherwise known as Cody" and when we got there there were signs and posters and the birthday boy and his siblings dressed up as robots, very cute! They had a game where they had to find the various robot parts and build a robot and then they all got certificates thanking them for their effort! They ate all the usual junk and took home party bags, they had a ball! Cody was very excited and happily telling me all about all the fun he had!
Mika's party was a bowling party, and Mika won the game! She obviously does not take after her mum-Ms Gutter Ball Queen!! Luckily all three of the terrors seem to take after their father in regards to sporting ability! Phew! Anyway, they had a game of bowling, ate hot dogs and lots of other crap, and got party bags and a token to play one of the amusement parlour games they had. The token was what they were all hanging out for! A very noisy party and the kids just seemed to run wild for the most part. Conor decided he'd had enough by the end of Mika's and threw a tantrum! Luckily no-one took any notice and he soon gave up and started smiling again!

Yesterday we went to my aunty's house for a sausage sizzle. She just grilled them rather than bar-b-quing them and we ate them with salad and bread and it was great. She also had some of her famous cornflake cookies on hand, yum!

Last night I heard from a friend of mine who I haven't heard from in a while so it was just wonderful to talk to him again! We have been friends for 17 years and even if we don't talk for 6 months we can still pick up where we left off! We usually email more than we talk on the phone.

I know! I will be finished uni for the year in about 5 weeks so I will muck around with it then till I (hopefully!) figure it out. I will give it a quick go in the next few weeks too.
