School presentation and Library opening days

last night 30th Nov we had Alex's Presentation night we received her report card and watched as children received special awards for doing well over the year. she was starting to get unsettled with all the noise and clapping as each Child was called out then they called out her name OMG she almost flew up the front lol she got a medal for effort and progress then after I read her report card she got 1 B, 2 C's and the rest A's and its almost a 100% improvement from the first half of the year.

one very Happy lady with her medal ♥

I also got Alex's School Books for next year delivered Monday from Office works :) so we are all set for the 2011 year at school. now just for me to start covering them so I am ready for the 2011 year to start

today the school had its official library opening so I went down for this as Robyn is in Child care every Wednesday so I had me time hehe. it was well done with a morning tea after. One of the mums from Alex's school gave us a book on Bible stories for Alex as she has been asking about the bible I wanted to fix her up but she said its a small gift to a special young lady so I think I will be reading this new book alot :), I asked her to write in the cover so Alex and well us all can look back and see where it Came from ♥  it makes me cry with joy at the kindness of people around us ♥

 I also wrapped some presents to be posted to family and friends interstate, finished all the Christmas cards ready to post as well I am on the ball sort of this year lol and got the girls some lovely party dresses off Lay-by so they can start wearing them :) especially with Christmas parties etc coming around now

Alex is doing well but last night she had cold sweats and was in some pain she woke this morning happy and looking well no fever of anything so she talked me into school as it is swimming day, tonight her school have their presentation night and I have been asked to come didn't know you had to RSVP to these events but the prep class have 4 awards up for grabs so maybe Alex is one of the lucky ones ♥
 the school had to get a new sign due to vandals they broke it last week so we helped get it done and tomorrow they officially open the new Library and I will be there for that too 4 days left of term then school holidays start :)

Fever

Alex got a fever on Sunday morning and all last night she was not doing well at all we are just to watch her  I am hoping its not Chicken pox as we have the cancer Christmas parties this weekend coming up. and if she is still not well we will be canceling :( like last year. Oh well this will be one last fever before the Port-a-cath is removed and stressing over infection can slowly stop.

Alex went to school today temp was normal but 37.8 so still close to high she wants to enjoy the last week of school and doesn't want to miss anything. she also has swimming tomorrow but this afternoon her temp was back over 38 so still watching her.

The school was vandalized again this last weekend with the school bus windows being smashed. No respect by some people. last week it was a sign which has been replaced for now with help from us.

11 days to surgery day now :) Alex is actually looking forward to getting her port out asap :)

the Girls 1st Carols By candlelight 2010

last night we had Christmas in the park just down the road from our place. the sky looked like it would break open and bucket down but held of with the odd sprinkle,
Alex and Robyn had a ball even with the hour line up for rides we went on 2 all up then wondered around a little while listening to local choirs and celebs sing carols,
the girls got a glow stick each and then we had Ice cream and a milkshake, then it was getting cooler so decided it was time to head home at 8.20pm the fireworks went off at 9.15 but we missed them although we could hear them from our house but could not see them.

 Tonight was the Carols By candlelight the mayor puts on and they had fireworks and the Last F1-11 Dump and Burn we did not go as Alex was not 100% and she hates loud Noises, but we still got a great View of the Dump and Burn from our back yard :) they flew over our house hehe
