A busy day, followed by a very late breakfast.

Tuesday was, as usual, rather busy, with piano lessons, gymnastics class and korfball for the girls and choir for me in the evening.  K & M are supposed to be in bed, snuggled down with the light off when I get in at gone 10 o'clock, but when I went upstairs to check on them last night, they were still busy doing 'something very secret'.  They clearly didn't manage to finish it last night, as this morning they didn't get downstairs for breakfast until about half past ten, despite obviously being awake for at least an hour and a half already, as K had been down to ask for some 'orange and white material'.  In addition, we were having the burglar alarm serviced, which involves it going off numerous times, so it would have been tricky to sleep that long, despite the late night!

When they finally came downstairs, all became clear.  They had been very industrious and creative!  The base of the mask was from a crafty kit of M's, with the muzzle added by K.  The ears were added onto a hairband and the tail was sewn and stuffed by both girls working as a team.

M the fox!

From behind.

Having breakfast.

Now they've requested that I make a waistcoat or top out of the rest of the orangey material to complete the outfit (she's got her Tudor trousers for her bottom half).
