More halft-term fun

By Thursday Big Monkey got a bit dis-heartened. Her friend could not come, she had chicken pox. So instead of the anticipated tent town and baking cup cakes we went to buy a get well card.
In the afternoon after all my suggestions to combat her boredom were deemed unsuitable I offered to get the paddling pool out. That was accepted.


She was particularly pleased that I had also blown up the highest ring so she could sit on in and pretend it was a horse. Even the freezing water didn't stop her from playing in there for hours.
