Trunk or Treat

This afternoon we went to the annual Trunk or Treat event at church. I think this year there was a record number of fairies.

I didn't get to take many pictures but here's what I got. Lucas was NOT happy about wearing the robot costume that he'd asked me to make. A grand 2 mins of wearing it!

Is he picking his nose or giving me the birdie?!


I kept getting asked which one he was.. Brett or Jermaine :o)
Jack the Pirate and Lucas. I think he's trying to tune in to the radio

I felt it needed a bit more exposure before being disposed of.

I loved Cooper's Nutella costume!

The Walker Family - little Toby is missing his mustache and head gear (we was a really good Asterix)

Wee Wiggie Wiggie

Lucas suprised me tonight by reciting We Willy Winky, here it is:


Happy Birthday Gra-gra

Happy Birthday "Gragra" (Grandad).


These were taken a couple of days after Dad's 66th. We had lunch, cake and sand. :o) LOVE YOU GRANDAD!


Can't wait to spoil you more next year. xxx

Welcome

Welcome to our newly private blog.
Since Steve became the victim of identity fraud we've been a bit more careful with security.
The general rule with blogs is not to use real names, dates of birth, mention place names that are local to you or friends names etc.
So we decided to just make it private instead.

Here's what we've been up to since Lucas' birthday:

Mulberry picking (like a long, milder tasting blackberry.. sort of). Soooo many pies! Got a few in the freezer ready for any get togethers :o)



Eating Watermelon in the sink and eating dirt - very proud moment. He seems to love the garden as much as Lucas :o)


Rock pooling with sandy bottoms (and Soozie Jeffrey and her kids)


Finding our resident Blue Tongue lizard. Lucas loves this fella. He wouldn't put him back until he'd had a long hold, told us where the lizard did his poos from and tried to get mummy to have a hold. I stuck with the camera.


No chandeliers about so here's the next best thing.

Happy Birthday Lucas and Natasha


We'd planned to go to Collaroy Beach and have lots of fun activities in the sand.. but it rained. So we had lots of fun and games at home.. The birthday girl is here but where's Lucas?


Pass the parcel and below is our "pinch the nose on steve" game, being short of a donkey and a tail.


It was harder than it sounds



Then it stopped raining for a bit, and thanks to Lisha and Don we had a gorgeous cake (Nanny's carrot cake recipe o'course)


The birthday boy (and the birthday girls belly :o)




No this was not his piece of cake.. sorry Emily.



Catherine the Home wrecker (there was a gutter where Don's hand is). It was only a matter of time, the thing had been held up by string for 5 years.


Natasha acing the limbo

Cake decorator extraordinaire (Don)


Er.. woops

This is the only party game pic with Lucas and Jack in. They nicked off the whole time and played (only one rudie nudie run, which for them, is quite reserved behaviour)
