shattered... but not broken... yet

day two of the kids, everyone was up at 6... 5 hours too early!
Had a great very full first day, doing everything from tying shoelaces, throwing hay, gardening and washing dishes, an average day on the farm!  Yesterday we did our swim tests... everyone passed except Simon, thanks for the years of swimming lessons Mom!
Today, I (Rachel), spent my morning at the beach with a group of about 12 kids and my afternoon doing a high ropes course. It's about 5000000 degrees outside so the lack of shade was a bit of a nightmare. I also spent 3 hours washing up with Chris. We tried our best to keep a positive attitude but it's safe to say that we don't see our future careers in a kitchen!
Big shout out to the Sykes family living it up in the Med ;) Hope you got my texts about calling me, and put the two fish food stuff in the living room tank! Loving life in the USofA. Much love, peace out.
Charlotte ------> McGrath family.. Hope John's not eating the full tubs of ice cream and Rev. Ken shouldn't be wearing socks with sandals!
To Helen Wells etccccc...... Don't be missing me too much in Marbella; I know you're missing me loads and you need me there to make the family of 5 deals, but try to have a good time without me! Ps, Daddy, Joy and I were throwing hay today.. was just like being at home!! (Love Sarah, if you didn't guess)
Thats all folks
Love Charlotte, Jonny S, Sarah and Rachel
