Today was good today was fun, tomorrow is another one...

Kieran spent the second week of Holidays playing FIFA 13. Les had a day flying. We went to Kalamunda Markets a couple of times. Lots of Doctor play with Will. Lots of sleep-ins for Kieran. Cleaned up Merenia's room while she was away. Britney came over for the day. Sorted some shelves for Will's art table.
