"Holiday Idea Box"

My girls are on school holidays for 3 weeks! Hip, hip ... HOORAY!! I LOVE the morning sleep ins. If the girls get up early they know to make themselves some breakie and watch some telly till I get up. I have to savor this easy routine until baby boy makes his big arrival in October ;0)

Yesterday we had tea and scones with a sweet friend. She is a mommy of two darling little girls and also has a little one on the way. I gleaned a lovely idea from her. At the start of the school holidays she got each of her girls to give her 5 ideas of what they wanted to do throughout the holidays. Each day they are going to do one of them. I loved her idea! So today, the girls and I wrote out some fun activities that we would like to do in the holidays. We wrote them out and have folded them into our "holiday idea box". Each day we will draw out one of the activities to do for the day! They are sooooo excited and so am I. 

It was so funny coming up with ideas of what they wanted to do these holidays. At the top of the list was "fly to Disney World" ... uhhhh honey ... that's a little far and a bit too expensive for right now ;0) So then my youngest pipes up ... "Let's go see some crocodiles!"???? These girls ... they make me laugh so much! I eventually explained that it has to be stuff that we can either do at home or in our City. "Ohhhhh!!! ... Well then let's bake and cook". Yes luvies ... that's more like it ;0) 

I'll try keep you posted on our "at home holiday adventures" :0) 

Have a beautiful day!

All my love xxx
