When Amy was round I filmed them dancing to their favourite song (Katy Perry - Fireworks)

They're all funny but in particular watch Krystal.....

Tonight after school my best friend Amy came over to play and stayed for dinner.  Amy is my friend who was in Turkey at the same time as us last year and is in my class at school.  We had great fun playing in my room, eating and playing on the Wii at Just Dance.

Krystal and her friend Annabel were treated to their first evening to the theatre after a meal out to Pizza Hut (their choice!!) 

We bought tickets a while ago for Beauty & The Beast at His Majesty's and we were not disappointed.

The girls wore their Belle dresses and took their Belle dolls with them.

The show was full of lovely songs, sparkly dresses and they absolutely loved it. Their wee faces were worth every penny!

Tonight the school held a Burns Supper.  Kory had been chosen to take part in the military two step with a few of his classmates.  Of course, he's partnered with Amy :) 

Enjoy!

Today was the last day of term for school as well as Krystal's rising 5's group party.  Her friend Hannah came here for lunch as her mum was at work and I got them both ready for the party.  They were SOOOO excited! 

They wanted their hair all curled too, they're gonna be so funny as teenagers getting ready to go out!

As we were away for Dad & Tricia's wedding reception last night, we took the kids down to Stonehaven tonight for their fireworks display.  It was the first time the kids have seen a bonfire as Aberdeen don't allow one (health and safety or something!) We met up with Melanie, Liam, Leah & Hannah there too, who had the kids overnight last night for us. 

Sparklers weren't allowed, so we all came back to the house afterwards to do them. 

Fun in the garden

Making patterns

Kids with their sparklers

If anyone can explain who was making this pattern let us know, I've not edited this AT ALL!

What a great night!

Although today was a chilly day, when Josh and I asked to go to the park, our mummies said yes!  We went over to Hazlehead Park and had a great time playing and jumping and walking. 

Last proper day of the summer holidays and a trip to Charleton Fruit Farm was in order.  We went with Maria, Davie, Daniel, Josh, Leanne, Craig, Jessica and Sophie.  James was at work. 

We played in the huge play area for a couple of hours, had some lunch and then headed out to the fields to pick raspberries.  I think more were eaten than put in the baskets, but isn't that the point?

By the time we had finished, I realised I'd lost my house keys.  It was decided to go out for something to eat together so I headed into town to collect James and to allow me into the house. We did a quick change and headed to Brewsters. 

The kids had a great time having dinner with friends and I got a few drinks in!  All in all it was a lovely day out.   Some extra photos below....
