Horrible Science

We've been to see "Horrible Science" at the Curve this morning. It was truly brilliant, Milly was transfixed by it, although sometimes a little shaken by the 3D effects (especially the germs which came to get us!).
Afterwards we had a walk around town, popped into Lush to buy lovely smellies and brought another "doodle" colouring book. Milly likes the very complicated patterns.

This evening I have been to see Swampy, I have finally sorted out my peas! (Yes!) Meanwhile Milly has been playing with Kate. She is exploring music at the moment, we have numerous instruments in the house and she is picking them up and trying to make music with them, sometimes successfully. I have been trying to teach her the recorder (on and off) for the past year, but she is not interested, maybe we'll try the keyboard.

Jewry Wall Museum

We have been continuing our exploration of the Romans. Today we visited Jewry Wall museum in Leicester.
Although I've lived here for 20 years, I had never been to this museum before.

James came with us and we had a pleasant afternoon. I think we have to revisit sometime soon though as there was far too much to take in on one visit.

Blaby Park

This afternoon we went for a walk in Blaby park. A very relaxing time after a "run-around-silliness" type of morning.

Pizza!!!

Milly and I met with Home Ed friends at Pizza Express in town today for a Pizza making session.
It was very well presented and the kids really seemed to enjoy themselves. Milly tried a few ingredients that she has never tried before and ate all her pizza when we reheated it for dinner.

Still here - just not blogging

I haven't felt inspired to blog recently. I don't know why.
Hopefully I'll post a catch-up soon and get back to it.

Happy 6th Birthday!

Emily May is 6 today!! Happy Birthday Babes!

We opened presents this morning and this afternoon we met a few friends at a local park. Milly has had a lovely day, and so did I.

Wow, 6 already...
