Face Painting again

We had a bit more face painting fun (and experimenting!). Eb loves it and I really enjoy it :)

Then it was Hannah's party!

...and it was such a great party! there were LOTS of children (and adults) there and it was a themed (princess/fairy etc) party.

Off to Settlers for dinner

Tonight we got together with another family from Tawonga and had a lovely time. Before we left Eb had a bit of fun practising her writing - which was fun. However the most of the fun was at Settlers Tavern!

Just a cute photo!

Absolutely LOVE this photo of Eb at swimming....

Katelyn's visit

We had a fun 'playdate' with one of Eb's friends from Kinder.
I just love this photo of them both playing together on Eb's car- they had 'attacked' the lavendar but gee it made for a lovely photo!

Birthday party #1 2010

I had only made a comment recently that I felt a bit sad that Eb hadn't been invited to any local birthday party's....well - how things change in a short period of time :)

Here's #1. Ashlyn is from Kinder and sadly she's not going to be around for much longer as she and her family are heading back to Perth to live. Eb will really miss Ashlyn - but at least they shared this special time together.

Can't resist showing an updated photo of my sleeping princess.......

Kinder duty

I so enjoy Kinder duty....and so does Eb! It must be such fun having your mummy come and help out.

We started by building a castle and playing 'house' together....





Then we played in the playground on the swings....






Then Eb had a ball in the roller thingy!....






And then I started some fun with throwing the autumn leaves in the air - this was a real hit!






then we had inside play and then it was all over 'til next term!....what fun!

My friend Robyn made it back for another visit!....

...and we had some great times together again. It's always so lovely to spend time with her!

She plays so well with Eb and obviously they adore each other!

On this first night I had accepted an invitation to a ladies night at our local Church. It ended up being a fun night where one of the activities involved getting a bunch of supplies and having to dress up a manakin. We were all quite impressed with the finished result and had a lot of fun on the evening.

It was a lovely visit with Robyn.

Dancing....

Eb is still enjoying dance - especially now that I've decided to get home from swimming in Wodonga at least an hour before we have to leave for dance. She was falling asleep in the car and then I would have to wake her and get her dressed(in the cold change room) then it was time to start dance and she spent most of the time attached to me and not dancing until about the last 5 minutes! Here she is really enjoying her session.

Mothers Day #3

My third Mothers Day. What made it so very special was my darling daughter singing at Church. She confidently stood up the front and sung 'Jesus Loves me'. My heart melted and I felt so proud and so blessed.....









After Church we headed to 'Gapstead Winery' and had an amazing lunch there. It was such a beautiful day and we ate WAY too much - but a great way to celebrate being a Mummy.
The only down side was being bitten by a European Wasp - never happened to me before....and I hope it doesn't again! It was just near my elbow - must have been on the arm of the chair when I put my arm down. It even bit me through my top!
