Evie has made a list of the things she would love to get up to during the holidays, including visits to the beach, arcades and going out for lunch. We were discussing the list on the way to school the other morning and I mentioned a few things, I asked where she would like to go and she thought for a second and said ‘erm…Mexico?’ Sorry Evie maybe next year lol
What do you have planned for the holidays?
