And Sunday already too...
We had a great day yesterday ... as it was Paul's first full weekend here (this time) we decided to have a 'Braai/Party' after all it's his birthday on Wednesday and most people we know are working so we won't see them mid week...
We invited friends and family around and even though when we woke up yesterday morning(at 5am!!!) and it was misty and very wet ... (hey what's a few drops of rain between friends eh??? )there was no stopping the party!!! I was up at 5am to go to Shongweni market again !!! But when Penny & I got there we made a management decision - we're not going to bother getting soaked, our stock ruined and possibly no customers ... I went home and went back to bed (had to snooze sitting up so I didn't mess the hair...lmao) The snooze didn't last long cos the electrician woke us at 7.30am ... they started 'chasing' the walls for the light switches and sockets !!! I am so glad Paul is here for this step cos he's the fussy one when it comes to electrics and where he wants them etc... (mind you I woke him through the night telling him we needed plugs in the bathrooms for the heated towel rails I want!!! w.t.f.)
The weather eased up long enough for us to erect the gazebo ... and we decided to park the cars on the grass and we used the garage for our 'party' see "'n boer maak 'n plan" ... We had a fantastic day - night who would have thought you could have so much fun dancing in the mist O.I.A !!!(forget the gorilla's in the mist pmsl) You should have seen the colour of the kids, after the decided to camouflage themselves for the 'dark hide 'n seek' !!!! Let me tell you more than 1 bath was needed to get rid of all that mud !!! But hey kids + mud = great time !!!
Finally I have had time to open Paul's suitcase ... all these lovely goodies = lots of beads, lovely sweeties (best ever liquorice) and crafty things too ... Never mind the mousse and hairspray!!!If Paul ever got stopped at customs he'd have some serious explaining to do !!!!
