first night and day of snow

Our kids are getting excited as we had our first night and day of snow.

There wasnt very much but it wont take long and they will have plenty to play in.

But we will miss 5 weeks of it as we are heading down under for holidays, its strange to be going from minus 5 to 35 degrees celcius

broken tooth

Wednesday ice skating lesson.
At todays lesson our son falls over just before the end of the lesson and breaks his front tooth.
Next we know we are sitting in the dentists and luckily they are open untill 9pm,At this stage they have rebuilt the tooth but he might have to end up having a root canal if the nerves have been damaged.
I think we will have to take out some sort of accident insurance as its always him that gets hurt.
First incident roller blades down a bridge and hits shin on bar and splits it open.
second falls flat on back and cant walk for at least 1/2 hour
third incident is his tooth
what do you think?

dressing up

MONDAY 26TH OCTOBER 2008

This was our first Halloween party that our family has been to and the kids were really excited about going.Our friends Michelle,Craig and kids hosted this wonderful event.

There was apple bobbing and searching inside the pumpkin for money which consisted of cooked spaghetti,pumpkin seeds and the children loved these events. Natalie made some ginger snaps which were scrumptious and i loved Michelle's Mummy hot dogs which were very clever. At the party were ghosts,witches,grim reapers,skeleton bride,Raggedy Ann,chef,etc

Thanks for a great night guys.

pumpkin picking

Chanelles ABC pre kindy teacher decided to take the class pumpkin picking.

The kids watched a witch show and then they were given a drink of milk and a cookie and then it was time to go pick our pumpkins . Chanelle and myself enjoyed this as it was a first time for us.

All the kids played on the playground and then it was time for the bus ride back to pre kindy.

botanical gardens/ lanterns

SUNDAY 26th OCTOBER 2008

Our family went with some friends to the chinese lantern show at the Botanical Gardens.

Before the night had barely started our son bradley decide he was going to do a stupid trick and was trying to jump up high forgetting he was wearing wheelie shoes slips and falls flat on his back on the cement so he could hardly walk for a while.

once feeling better we carried on and the lanterns we saw were magnificent as this is something we have never seen before. The decorated pumpkins were fantastic and Chanelle thought the lady that was dressed as the witch was okay.Overall it turned out to be a fairly good night except for the accident, but he is getting better.
