Marshmallow Balls

While there mum and dad went to do the big huge Christmas supermarket shop Ella, Harry and I made these yummy Marshmallow balls.  Slightly messy but we all had fun.  Then made a Gingerbread. Just finished when the shoppers covered the kitchen floor with supermarket bags.

Our Black Caps beat West Indies in the fourth day of the third cricket test.  They won the series .... Two wins and a draw.  It's been a while, pleased for them.

After lunch all six of us played back yard cricket for an age, kids loved it and so did we. As if  that wasn't enough, Doug and I took to the hills for a walk.  I say took to the hills as there isn't an alternative in Wellington,  particularly where they live. I've even found an hour to read my book.
