Although it was back to school for our kids this week, other parts of the country had different timing for their breaks. It meant our friends from London were able to visit us for an overnight at the end of the week, on their way home from a few days away. Amazingly we were able to keep it hidden from the kids and it was a wonderful surprise for them to have friends ring the doorbell on Friday evening and then to find out they were staying for more than just dinner. We had traditional American pancakes for breakfast with maple syrup and whipped cream, I call this 'ten at the table'. It was a Saturday morning, so not the most flattering for most of us, but a fun memory nonetheless.
And there was an early morning, wrapped up in blankets game of Monopoly, which may or may not have been continued from the previous evening. Fun times.
