The Usual!

Jordan went on his class end of year trip to Farmer Ted's (where Timmy & Luke went earlier this term) last Thursday. He was SOOOOO excited about going as he could wear his own clothes, amongst other things. The t-shirt he chose to wear was his Bob the Tomato t-shirt that our friend Alison gave him a few weeks ago. Bob the Tomato comes from some kids videos that the boys love called Veggie Tales & they are Bible stories or lessons on things like sharing. There is also a superhero character called LarryBoy that they love & who has been very helpful in helping the boys learn about not telling fibs! The photo is of Jordan sitting with one of his best friends, Archie, by the way.
Anyway, Jordan had a fantastic time at Farmer Ted's & the weather was actually hot & sunny for the day which was brilliant. BUT when Jordan got back home from the trip he was very sick everywhere! He had to miss the last day of school which was a shame as his teacher was leaving to move to Ireland. He was sad to say goodbye to her when we nipped in to give her a card & present but delighted with the little bag of goodies the teacher & classroom assistant gave him!
And so, we began the summer holidays as we have begun every school holiday since Jordan started nursery- with illness!! One day we will have a sickness free holiday! I can hardly believe that Jordan has finished a whole year of full time education & that the twins have finished year one of nursery. It all seems to have happened too quickly.... 7 more weeks & little baby girl will be here too......YIKES! ;O)
