¡La Evie, tan lojana!

Evie was playing 'waitress' the other day and gave me the menu of what was on offer at her 'fruit shop'. There were mangoes, bananas, grapes, apples, strawberries..... I placed my order of mango only to find out there were no mangoes available. Ok then, bananas. No, no bananas available either. Grapes? No, says Evie, actually we only have apples today.

Quite a common experience here. It made me chuckle!

Plus, here is a pic of Mattias adding to his climbing exploits.

Oh the joys....

Mattias is a climber, Evie is a jumper......

At least the furniture is getting a good work out!

Beach Time

We managed a week’s holiday down at the beach just before Christmas. It was so good to see the ocean, and also to think that on the other side of that water, far, far away is home. The kids enjoyed the sand and the water, Mattias not even blinking an eye when side swiped by a wave.

John got in some quality sand castle building and Evie liked pulling it all down again. It was more than worth the 2 day drive to get there!
