This morning the girls had their Super Saturday [children's club at church that meets monthly] Christmas party and they thrilled my heart with their eagerness to invite their friends to come. It reminded me how as adults we often invent obstacles to inviting people instead of remembering why we want to invite people. Anyway, they had little response - probably because I forgot to put our pone number on the invites for parents to check out what this thing was. But I spoke to the mum of one of Rose's classmates at the Christmas lunch and explained what it was and Rose was chuffed when her friend came. They had a blast - they made Christmas tree decorations and chocolate sweets.
And then this afternoon we had a grand Guille clan outing on the Severn Valley Railway "Santa Special". Sam was feeling poorly but dragged himself out and we all had fun. Sam even snagged himself a present from Santa so we had little sympathy for him after that!

We finished the evening with an amazing Chinese take-away which ended the fun day perfectly.
