HAPPY EASTER



I love a long weekend but a 4 day long weekend is heaven!!!

After spending the last 3 1/2 hours cleaning and tidying the house it is now ready for the in-laws to arrive. I had almost half of a chocolate bunny last night from one of my (7!!) prac students and I think will just about do me for Easter! None of my students gave me anything which is unusual but because Easter this year doesn't back on to the school holidays I guess parents weren't thinking of it....not that I needed it anyway!! Walking the dog almost every morning has done nothing to my weight...just moved it around a little I think.

I'm watching the footy on TV tonight and a game at the stadium on Saturday...and for those that asked....I watch real footy....NRL....I only picked 4 in last week tipping contest at work....so hopefully I do better this week.

Also my little sister has asked what happenend to Flashback Friday....I sorta stopped but she liked the trip down memory lane so I will come back later with one for this week....I'll see if I can find an Easter related one.

AJ! I can't believe none of your students gave you any choccy! Grace handed out 3 lindt bunnies to her teachers/assistants on Thursday, I must admit, they did look suprised at getting a pressie. Teachers work so hard, the least a parent can do is buy a $5 bunny! Happy easter hon. xx

{3rd Birthday} Octonauts party

Image
It has been a week two weeks since Aden's Octonauts party and I think I have recovered enough to post about it. Special thanks to my sister for gabbing my camera and my MIL and SIL for their cameras, as I didn't take any all day! Aden is a massive Octonauts fan! So when he didn't go for my initial plan of a 'Monsters' Party ( too scary Mummy!) we decided on Octonauts. I did a lot of Internet searching and looking at a lot of Pintrest posts to gather all my ideas together.  There was lots of party food including Octonaut Cupcakes. Cake toppers from Ebay  And a Kwazii cake as requested by the birthday boy! I totally forgot to put on the Octopus I had for his hat!! We also had yellow/green/blue jelly cups with turtles in them and smarties cookies. As well as regular party food and hot finger food for the adults. Mummy wiping Aden's face before having cake photos! We had balloons, a birthday banner and streamers. ...
