Both the Trouts are finally finished their school year. Science Girl* finished her last exam on Tuesday and Lego Boy today. But the last few days have been a whirlwind of ice-cream parties and picnics and games days, it makes me wonder why they bother going.
The summer will be mad as usual. Soccer 4 nights a week (they're both playing this year which blows), Survival Camp and swimming lessons for Lego Boy. Science Girl isn't doing anything.

At least tomorrow we get a bit of a lie in before the festivities begin next week.
