*walking on air*

Honestly, that is what it feels like with these Crocs on!! They arrived this morning in time for me to wear the fuchsia pair to harvest festival...drew a few interested/surprised stares from other parents, but I'm not one to let that sort of thing bother me, no sireeee. They are SO comfortable; I cannot stress this enough. I have never worn a pair of shoes as comfortable as this before. They are incredibly light - I spent the day taking them off to give to friends to hold - they had to feel how light they are. And they look pretty funky, too. I am very pleased (can you tell??!!) - just trying to decide now which ones to get next...





Harvest Festival was great; A's year performed a very jolly song entitled 'Big Red Combine Harvester', complete with actions for each verse. A (being one of the smallest) was right at the front so I had quite a good view of her from the end of my pew at the back of the church. She looked like she was having fun!! F's class recited a poem entitled simply 'Autumn', by someone called 'Mary F' - it was lovely, they did really well. The service lasted about 40 minutes, just the right length of time for the children to stay quiet and behaving themselves!!

Came home for a little while after church, and then went out for a girly lunch which brought with it plenty of opportunities for baby squidging, as both of my friends have teeny tinies - both girls. I managed to keep Elizabeth asleep on me for the duration of Sue's lunch, so she was able to eat in peace, and I had a fabby cuddle into the bargain.

And, just because I haven't uploaded a photo of either of the kids for, ooh, at least 48 hours, I'll leave you with a familiar face, taken this evening:



P.S. I nearly forgot! Whilst I was in town at lunchtime, I posted my parcel for the vintage book swap - I won't say what I've included, just in case my recipient happens upon my blog, but when she's received it I'll tell all. I had a lot of fun putting it all together; I will now wait anxiously to hear a) that it got to its intended destination, and b) that it is well-received. I do worry about such things...
