Last I wrote was the 15th so I will tell you about the 16th, Ethan's little friend Reece was due to move on the 16th so we had a final slumber party for the boys to enjoy some time and also let Becky finish packing all her stuff ready for the movers in the morning. It was alot of funt he boys enjoyed pizza, movies, and alot of games before finally falling asleep.
16th we had a recon party to welcome home all our soldiers back to the units. They put on a lovely meal a GREAT band and really nice atmosphere. Was so good to see some old faces and introduce them to the new as well as catch up on all things.
17th we had my friend Luke's mom and dad come down for the night so they could watch the medals parade for our lads, we all attended this together on the 18th. It was so amazing to watch and even more importantly watch our friend Trevor recieve special recognision for his extra work.
19th brought a charity event my friend had put on to raise some more money for the Jamie Inglis appeal, sadly only 20 people turned up but gladly Lou and myself were on hand with our thinking caps and dragged Toyah to town to raise an extra 200-300 Euro in the local bars! I have now TODAY found out Jamie has got ALL the funds he needs but is still collecting in the name of other children with cancer needing help so please if your on facebook join the jamie inglis appeal (found in group section).
20th we had a poker night, it was more for ther boys so I tended to the kids until all 5 were asleep (had Lou's kids around as well) and then enjoyed some drink, BBQ food as Andy decided it was first BBQ of the year weather and a few laughs (alright alot). The men then decided to go to town well I caught up on a few weeks worth of sleep (keep in mind I have been ill for about 3-4 weeks).
21st lou took our kids and Andy and I set off to a sauna day in Bad sal, we got a bed and breakfast enjoyed saunas and nice romantic walk through town, a lovely Greek dinner and relaxing along with alot of sleep.
22nd We headed to the town for new clothes and then picked up the kids and took Ethan, Caleb and Ceria swimming. Was grea tthe kids all do so well in the water and were tired as anything getting out. We enjoyed some french fries and then went to feed the ducks (more like Seaguls) what we couldn't finish. Soon we were home kids all asleep and us enjoying quiet time.
today is the 23rd and well it's not begun really yet so I will have to leave my page blank for now.
