Maria had her long afternoon sleep while the kids played beautifully. While I was catching up on some emails a couple of parrots landed outside the window on one of our small trees and started helping themselves to a leafy afternoon tea. As I happened to have the camera on the desk I was able to take a couple of shots, which I've shared below.
This evening Maria and I went out to dinner with a group of neighbours. We dropped the kids off to our dear friends (who lived down the road from the restaurant). They are going to have a sleepover. We had a really nice time at the restaurant with plenty of food (could have probably done without that!).We got home around 9:45pm and although Maria was exhausted, she had enough energy to do a bible study together before she was ready to sleep. I thought I'd get a quick entry in and catch up on some further email corro before hitting the sack myself.
