Tighe's 6th Birthday

 Tighe's fascination with Ancient Egypt, had him asking for a pryamid cake for his birthday.

 I hollowed out the centre of the cake and added treasure - Whitikers mini bars, Turkish Delight, Eclairs, and "eskimos" masquerading as Mummies.

The desert sand was brown sugar

Tighe is described as a Loaf of bread, diagional stripes, flower pot, house plan, and a flowering reed.

Moved In

After much planning, demolishing, building, painting and some unpacking, we have all moved in together.  At this stage the cats are still hissing at each other, and the wardrobe doesn't fit all my clothes.

Snow in the hills

The Walking School bus

Snow on Backpack

Snow around the side of the office

It's meant to happen once every 40 years, but it snowed on the lawn at the house.  The kids played in the snow at school and I froze at work.  There was a great pile of ice on the trampoline after school, so we all had snow ball fights until our fingers became frozen.  It was the first day for the walking school bus as well, so they got to walk to school in the swirling snow.

Carrots for dinner

Just don't ask Tighe to help peel the carrots.  His one is on the left.  Gina peeled the other one.

Thanks for your help Tighe.
