Another day, another Christmas show

Not the best picture in the world but at least one lucky blipper will get two god kids for the price of one. Today Anna spent the day performing in various different ways in a total of 6 shows at the performing arts school she attends in an extra-curricular way. Though as she worked out from January she will be there on 5/7 days it might well feel like actual school. The shows were fun and Christmassy and showcased lots of the hard work both the teachers and kids put in when they go there. Dancing is currently riding high on Anna's best things in life list and tap dancing especially. She is almost never not tapping which is highly entertaining. Though does little to dispel the rumour she is harbouring a voodoo doll of her brother and using his life force to fuel her ridiculously busy life.

Meanwhile I have drifted my way through the day on a cloud of Day Nurse in an attempt to cut short the cold that is threatening to settle in. J's is a lot better and we are all really hoping he will be back in the tank tomorrow which definitely requires me NOT to have a cold (sorry for the shouting but in case the cold is listening).

The Christmassy theme continued into the evening with a family tree decorating activity accompanied by suitable tunes and an only slightly over excited puppy. Actually much to our surprise she has taken having a gigantic stick she is not allowed to chew in the house pretty well. Though that could just be the distraction of playing catch the sprout - a new favourite, she literally bounded into the house to get some sprouts. I think the kids may be getting ideas for Christmas dinner. Especially as Anna and I have negotiated that she and J will eat 6 each with only minimum moaning.
