Well last years easter folk festival blog entry had me complaining about the heat! Not so this year! Ha! Thank goodness for road snails (also known as our lovely caravan) and thank goodness we weren't in a tent! We ended up putting on more clothes to go to bed (shirt + jumper + two pairs socks + contemplated the trousers!) and spent most of the weekend on the chilly side (except for when in the dances!)- but we all had a good time. M enjoyed some beginner musical work shops, SJ kept disappearing with a gang of friends and FI and TP relished in the cutting and sticking fest that was the childrens workshops- as well as a little maypole dancing, fire eating (watching!!) and circus skills. Made 3/5 of the evening dances- due to grumpy tired children and the need to pace ourselves!
TP and his Easter bonnet- very proud moment. Quite hard work in the workshops though- wanted to do everything his way- which, when it comes to things like threading up a dream catcher, isn't always possible! And led to poor old FI being totally abandoned- usually leading to her asking a nearby grown up for help (poor abandoned child)
But then being blond, female and smily usually gets you what you want- minx!
Resolutions for next year- try to get no1 and 2 onto an instrument to increase their enjoyment....
