6 MORE SLEEPS !

It is hard to believe it is almost here .... today i started to feel very excited, today it started to feel real ...

This time next week we'll be in America!

Now to catch up on some random stuff that i hadn't got around to posting ... bascially pics from events over the past few weeks but in no particular order!

Blake has being "dying" to get a mobile phone!
He is only 11 and up until now i had maintained that it wasn't necessary until he went to high school ... but .... DH and i reconsidered before we went to the snow cause the kids are becoming quite advanced with their skiing and are "all over the mountain" (as a figure of speech) and whilst their is always an adult from our groups within close proximity, it made me feel at ease that he could contact us and vice versa ... so here it is ... one smitten little man and his 1st mobile phone!





The week before we went to the snow, i went to one of my girlfriend's 40th birthday parties ... a Hollywood Murder Mystery night!

I went with another of my girlfriends and i went as Laurel & Hardy whilst DH stayed home to be cheif babysitter for all the kids !!

The night was fun ... i have to say i lost the plot with the whole murder mystery thing about 5 mins in .... but we bumbled along, and had lots of fun & laughs along the way!

So here's the birthday girl .... (and check out the awesome cake) !



Here are the movie stars ... Laurel & Hardy (you'll get a laugh to know that i made my moustache out of felt from my scrap stash and stuck it on with double sided tape ... he he !!)


and .... of course .....

we won a Hollywood Award (not sure what that was for ... maybe they felt sorry for us ... LOL !!



and somewhere in between these events ... Blake had his Bookweek Day at school (his very last primary school BookWeek [sigh] ...

a photo of Blake aka Indiana Jones


Blake & one of his best friends (a very serious Joker)


and the group ...



Well i've had a big day getting organised for our holiday, we're about 75% packed (not too bad for someone that is usually up 'til wee hours of the morning the night before we leave for holidays trying to iron pack & organise all at once) ... time for some beauty sleep!!!

Have a great week ... Keep Smiling !!
