Christopher was poorly, just like last year. He still isn't 100%. But we had a good day!

Me & my Nan. I blinked. LOL!
Poorly Christopher playing on his new toy from Santa (aka Bibo)

Treasure Hunt
The boys had to read the clue and work out where the next clue would be and so on. At the end of it they got the 'treasure'. Which if you were wondering was a BIG box of Cadbury each!

These little Chocolates go into little clear bags and get put on the tree :)
Lewis squeezes out the melted chocolate into the mould...
We waited for them to set...
And then we decorated them :)

The joys of the web
Okay so I admit once again, it really does not take much to get me excited. But this is exciting!
Every 6 months when the time comes to renew your car tax we all no what it is like. I am sure you can remember my post a few months back where I was hunting for my paperwork?! Anyway, each time the queue in the Post Office is just a joke. We stand there for around an hour just waiting to be served.
Well! No longer!!!!
My Car Tax is due the end of this month and they now accept renewels online. So I tried it! All you need is the reference number from your renewal letter and you are set to go! They check instantly as to whether or not you have insurance and an MOT if required (this is the first time I have ever taxed my car and not needed a MOT!) and then they take payment (Bah!) and your disc arrives within 5 working days!
The whole thing from start to finish was about 5 mins and I didn't even have to get dressed to do it!

Anyway, just got one from Matt asking for a lift home. DH is narked cause he was dressed for bed but at least he will be home on time and I can get my beauty sleep.
Hey! What do you mean I need it? LOL!

Before I go
sorry about the two posts. But as I said previouslyI had a late night last night. I know you are all sitting wondering why.
Okay we watched 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose'.
Has anyone seen it? What did you think? It is based on a true story. Ifound it really freaky and scary and if I ever wake up at 3.00 am and can smell burning just shoot me okay?

Party Time
Today Adam & Lewis had their school Christmas Party.
Adam came home saying he had fun and won 'Musical Bumps'. He was quite proud of himself.
Lewis came out of his class with a big frown on his face saying they had to dance. From his description I am thinking it was musical statues. Then he produces his 'prize' from his bag. I asked him what he won it for and he said 'Nothing. You get a prize even if you lose'.
Tomorrow is the last day at school until next year. The boys are so ready to Santa ~ they are wound up like little springs.
I will end with this. At 9.00 pm tonight Matt went bowling with his friend Matt. He is due home at 10.00. He says he won't be late but I cannot see how he can leave here and be home within an hour. I so hopes he is in on time. I had a late night last night and am tired and want to go to bed. My alarm gets me up at 6.00 each morning *rolling eyes*.
Who wants a guess at whether he is late or not?

Breakfast with Santa
Today we went for 'Breakfast with Santa' at the local garden centre. Everyone got a full English Breakfast and the kids got a gift from Santa.
Here are a few pictures :)
Lewis enjoying his Breakfast :)
Wow!!! It's Santa!
Would you like some Santa?
I am not too keen on that red thing with the white beard. This is much more interesting!
