Big 5th birthday party and more

Where does time go?
I think if i only did blog entries with no photos i could do more but i love spending time on picnik and doing all the pretty collages lol.

Firstly, to the big girls birthday part on Saturday.  We were so lucky with the weather.  It was at least 30C and sunny, perfect for a pool party (sunday was hot too and then it started to rain on Monday... and Tuesday... and overcast Wednesday).  Well it is Autumn now...

More fun in the pool with the neighbours.  The pool might only have another month left before its taken down for the cooler months.  I will miss it, its been so much fun.  It will become a normal slide after this, the kids will slide straight on the ground.

Getting the courtyard ready for the party is a big job.  Im so glad i had some helpers the day before..  (if only i could sweep naked lol).

One of the presents was a gorgeous floor puzzle which daddy helped the kids put together.

The kids love giving us back massages and my big boy loves giving daddy neck massages too.

Luckily the kids usually love dinner.  I took this photo because i asked my girl if she could be any more pinker!!!  Of course the boy wanted a photo too...

The courtyard is great fun to draw on with thick chalk.  Here are some creations...
