I made a couple of stops on the way home to drop off some Christmas cards and got stuck in the snow on Wayne and Nic's road but managed to turn around and go down the hill instead.
At home I got the boys ready and in the car and took them to Nanny and Grandad Rennolds' house to have their hair cut. Leo just had a little bit off his fringe and Ellis had the back and sides done, but not very well.
Back at home we were having quite a lazy time when we just decided to try and go ice-skating at the big big shops. They have an outdoor arena every Christmas time and I really wanted Ellis to have a go.
We arrived and they were half way through a session but that seemed fine as Ellis would be too cold on the ice if out there too long.
They paid, got their skates on and hit the ice, but not literally thankfully.
It wasn't going too well as Ellis was just trying to walk and kept slipping over so Rob purchased a seal to help.
Then they really got going.
Leo and I watched on the side line, feeling cold, dancing and singing to Britney.
When the session was finished Ellis was shaking with the cold. He was freezing! I quickly got his skates off and bundled him into the shops to warm up. We were all hungry so we stopped off at Pizza Hut for some grub.
We got back quite late and put the boys straight to bed where they stayed all night!
The next day Leighton, Jaidan, Sabriel, Jasper and Nico came over for a visit. The kids were all very excited so after some playing and a picnic on the floor of the living room, we took them out to the park with the sledges.
The park was really good fun and everyone was having a laugh, apart from Leo who just wasn't wrapped up enough and went blue with cold.
They played with the sledges too.
And had a ride home!
Leo was really upset when we got home as his hands were hurting from warming up. Bless him.
They were all soon happily playing together and we all had a cuppa to warm up too.
After they left we relaxed until bed time.
Trying to do 2 days at a time to catch up as it has been pretty busy recently and I haven't been well. Hopefully another blog coming soon.
