Christmas is coming and the stove is getting hot

Tom took this especially involving rearranging the people and two trips upstairs. Three vases just visible.

Caught Up

Today we cleaned and cooked - biscuits and soup. Tom and Annie washed up tea. Tom started painting a mug. Annie started making a castle. I did my exercises and we watched extreme pilgrim. Religions are much more alike than different. Where did the day go?

Christmas Day 2007

Cockleroi

Off to get the Christmas Tree.

10th January

Count the candles, the extra bright one is in fact two so Tom is now 8. The candles are stuck in the usual chocolate fudge version of a Landrover going through a muddy puddle.

Snow

Snow at last and much was made of what did fall. Off to the zig zags and whoosh.

Duplo Town

Feeling a bit better, desperate for the feel of wind on my face. The garden and lots of warm layers call. Tom and Annie have created an intricate 'Town with Farm' from the Duplo. Hours of construction and play.
