Tuesday
We're doing swimming this term at school, so thats a cool trip to Northcroft once a week on the coach.  We had to have our first session test of course, but this time I got put in the top group!
It wasn't all good news though, I got told off by Mr Gilham in PE for milkiing an injury.  I got no sympathy from Mum and Dad either as they always accuse me of that too......
There were some pretty remarkable scenes at home after school, we have finally bought a printer for our computer....I know, amazing or what? I was so excited about it and couldn't wait to help Mum unpack it and set it up.  It was dead easy actually, and I was soon taking it to Dad to plug it into the computer.  It worked first time, so exciting, our homework will never be the same again.
It was also gymnastics night, I got told to go and get changed and ready and came down in several apparently innapropriate outfits before I was allowed to go.  This made us a bit late of course and we had to park miles away from the gym.  I compounded this by leaving my trampoline socks in the car despite several reminders to take thm with me...
When I got home Ned seemed very pleased to see me.  This seems to a bit of a geberal trend now we're at different schools.  Thats not to say we don't still love a good old row, but tonight we dcided we'd dance together instead:

Wednesday
I decided to put myself forward for sports councillor for our class this year.  I put together my manifesto  and printed it out on our exciting new printer and took it into school.  I delivered my presentation well so all I could do was wait for the results to come in. 
Team Kennet was rained off this week, so we got to have a lazy evening instead which was actually pretty nice.

Thursday
I had Amie round for tea after school, she hasn't been for ages so it was proper exciting.  We gave some dollies a bath out in the garden then got the pop up tent out and made a lovely camp in it, full of cushions and cuddly toys.
Ned was nice to us as well when he got home from school which was a most welcome surprise.  He even let us watch his Ipad in the tent.
We had a lovely pizza and dough ball tea followed by melting middle chocolate puddings.  A big thanks to Mum for walking up to Sainsbury's for the dough balls!

Friday
The results for Sports councillor elections were in, I won! I was super pleased especially as I had to go up during assembly to get my certificate. 
So a good start to my epic weekend, then after school home with Amie for a sleepover.  We had a great time and a bit of a late night.....well it was 11:30 when High School Musical II finished anyway, and then we had to spend a while arranging the teddies......

Saturday
We got up early for a McDonalds breakfast, why have I never tried their flat sausages before? It was delish with some pancakes.  Well worth the early start.
I got home by mid-morning when Sacha came to get me with her Mum to go swimming, I said I was having a brilliant weekend.  We had lunch and a play at her house before going to Kennet for adip, so that was goodasit's somewhere we don't ever go.  The slidewas pretty good but the floating mats were even better.
I got picked up mid afternoon and had a snuggle up with Dad on the sofa, I hadn't seen him for over a day after all.
We were going to Gail's 60th party in the evening.  I wasn't having that and didn't believe she was old enough for one of those.  Mum and I had a lovely time picking our dresses and accessories and doing my hair.  It was nice to catch up with the family at the party and the food was lovely, especially the sweeties!

Sunday
Owen had given me my belated birthday money at the party, it obviously was burning a hole in my pocket so I hatched a plan to go down to town and buy some TY's.  We all rode down inthe end in the morning sunshine, it was really rather nice actually.  I got a good deal on a rather large owl in Camp Hopsons, especially as we got a discount for slight bit of underwing damage that we were sure we could fix easily with a bit of needle and thread.  He looked brilliant sat in mum's bike basket on the way home and even better cuddled up with me at home:
To round off my weekend of epicness it was Molly's birthday party.  It was great fun, she invited loads of boys which was really good and made a change for a girls party.  There was an entertainer who was really funny which was also a nice change.  We had a great time and they even sent me home with a piece of cake for Ned which was really kind.
Then it was our now usual Sunday night homework session with a total media blackout, so no radio or tv and both the Ipads being used by us kids....Dad loves it!

Monday
Back to school then after my mega weekend, I was glad of the rest t o be honest.
Here I am with my new owl mate Ollie and my Sports councillor certificate:
