Cross Country and the Easter Bonnet Parade

Yesterday was cross country! Jayne came third in the year 1 girls and got a green ribbon..She was so exciteed showing everyone her ribbon. Edmunds race was next and he had to do two laps of the coarse and was coming 2nd at on stage but on the second lap slipped back to 11th and i could see him chatting to one of his friends on the last lap as he was jogging/walking. :) He had previously been protesting going to school in the first place as he prefers short distance running to long distance. Unfortunately Darys race was postponed due to a heavy load of rain that decided to decend for the remainer of the afternoon. So he gets to race today. He has to do three laps. We'll see how he goes...

The year 1 and Preppies had the annual Easter Bonnet Parade at school this morning. Jayne has been counting down the days and singing like a little angel practicing all the easter bunny songs. She woke up this morning so excited and was practicing jumping like a bunny all over the house, every couple of minutes she would say " Mummy do you want to see me hop like a bunny? See how high i can hop? " lol So we all rushed off for the parade which included the parade and looking in their class rooms at all the things they have made and then an easter egg hunt and morning tea. It was a lovely morning and Lizzie and Lydia had great fun dancing along to the music. Edmund had told me he felt like vomiting this morning so he came with me...suprisingly though he didn't feel sick when we got to the parade...funny that!
