School performances and Nerf wars

Finally, school holidays are here. Two weeks (okay, so 2.5 weeks if you count the public holidays around Easter) until we have to get up early again.
We started off well today with a sleep-in (woot! 7.15am wake up instead of 6am lol), but it's raining (lovely cool Autumn weather), so the kids are stuck inside and have had a couple of run-ins already this morning and my patience is starting to wear thin... I may just send them out in the rain with gumboots and raincoats lol

Yesterday was Scooter's last day of term, and the school had their Easter chapel performances. Scoot had to be dressed all in black with war paint! lol The kids did awesome and the dance (Scream It) rocked... This is the song they performed to:

And here's my warrior-chick lol



hehe They all looked pretty cool as they marched on stage ;)

Afterwards, we took the kids to the shops and ended up at FunHouse, where the kids played a few games and got enough tickets to some small prizes. Mr Mouse also bought something... something I'm not too keen on, but these things happen ;) So long as I'm not used for target practice lol We can blame Mr Mouse for the following photos...

I didn't realise until after I saw the photo that Miss Scooter was dressed rather appropriately for this photo ;)



And the boy *sigh* Please note, that I come from the bush, so my family owns rifles for legitimate pest control purposes, and all children are taught from an early age that guns are serious things, and we generally don't play with any guns (even toys), so I'm just not sure where he picked this pose up from...



So it looks like Nerf wars are the go at the moment. Should make for some interesting parties!!
