Haircut before and after

All ready for Miss Pips in the morning

She went to bed one very excited almost 7 year old.

Thank you for the postcards

Look what arrived in the post today. Granny and Bertie boy have been in Kruger, and Grandma has been in Alaska. The kids love all the animal pictures, thank you.

Homemade ice lollies

Happy fathers day to daddy

The girls wanted to make Paul his favourite breakfast for fathers day, here's what they decided on. Along with some bacon, scrambled eggs and sliced avocado. Yum...

And marshmallow building

Making playdough today

China town outing

Tote bag painting

The gorgeous results of a Groupon voucher I bought a while ago. I think the girls did a great job! And here's how I found the girls after I'd finished cleaning up after lunch, all ready for homeschooling. I have awesome daughters.

We finally have a wobbly tooth

Will she lose a tooth by the time she's seven (3 more weeks!)?

Hanging out with the Thai dancers

Fun at Westgate mall today. There's loads going on because it's the local school holidays.

Enjoying Westgate wonderland

Labrador Park nature hike.

Lunch time

Very peaceful moment here. Brynn just woke up from a two and a half hour nap. Pippa is having guitar lessons with Leny and Tasha is learning Mandarin with Laoshi Ding. I even managed a half hour nap myself, now I'm feeling refreshed and ready for a swim once all the lessons are over.

Sunday evening chores

Dancing to Mozart

Loving the homeschooling 'classical music appreciation' time. Today it's Mozarts Allegro vivace horn concerto.

City gallery

Awesome to see our church on the heritage map at the city gallery today. They've revamped the whole exhibit, it's even more brilliant thanks it was. Very interactive and engaging. Perfect for teaching about 'our island home' in line with the year 2 British curriculum.

Loom bandz

Happy sisters loom banding together. Definitely the latest craze in our house. The plaster on Pippa's chin is from a water play injury on the balcony yesterday afternoon.just a bit of glue needed at the hospital to stick the wound together.

Melaka

We had a lovely three days in Melaka. We walked and saw sights, we ate and drank, and we swam. Much fun was had by all. Most interesting was seeing how much the place has changed in the eight years since we were last there. It's really cleaned up and modernised. The boat trip on the last morning showed us just how much growth and building is going on. Well done Melaka!
