Hello! 
It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas here, with Christmas parties going on. 

We all went to the playgroup Christmas party one weekend. It was great. They had tractor rides, biscuit decorating, running about under the sprinklers and guinea pigs to hold. Santa Claus turned up to hand out sweets after a little Nativity story and sing-a-long jingle bells:

Isla had a Christmassy gymnastics lesson with swinging on ropes and bouncing on an inflatable mat. Here she is waiting for the lesson:

She went to her first school disco too. She loved dancing to the music with her friends in the dark school hall with disco lights.  Here she is having some food outside:

Evie made Santa and some Christmas trees at playgroup this week, as well as a bird and a beaded necklace:

She has also been to the park by the river for a play. The river was very full and brown after all the rain and storms we've been having.

Evie felt a bit peckish after a busy morning:
