Cinderella's Ball

The girls got to attend Cinderella's Ball at school last Thursday. Their topic this term was fairytales so it fitted in nicely. I took these photos beforehand as I had to go to work. Annie kindly took some photos for me and once I have gone through them and resized them I will put them up here as well.

Collage

I made this last night. It is meant to portray Women & Advertising.
Tell me what you think of it? Really it was just me procrastinating about writing 2000 words on feminist standpoint theory.

Toasting Marshmallows

We spent the afternoon toasting marshmallows on a big bonfire with some friends. Kids cuddled chickens, played in the trees and generally had a lot of fun.

Party Time

Here are the photos from Emily's party today at the Little People's Art Studio. All the kids painted a picture frame and did a pastel water colour painting.

Emmy turns 7

Emily had a lovely day and is looking forward to her party on Sunday.

Puppet making

Wayne took the three kids to Daylesford to make puppets today. I had to work at Open Day at LaTrobe. Here are the beautiful puppets that they made.

Magpie lovers

We enjoyed watching this handsome male Magpie romance his girlfriend. After he suceeded in his quest he strutted around like he owned the place it was quite funny to watch. Must be a special bird day of the year 'cos Chirpy (our male canary) found his song again today after being quiet for months and has started chasing Miley around the cage again. Maybe 1st August is first day of spring for birds....who knows!
