The Present

Life is just one party after the next. Here is Miss Lou off to ANOTHER birthday party.

Lilly Lolly

Who can resist the lolly necklaces?  And Miss Lou looks so cute in hers!!

Snail Shell

Pumpkin pumpkin

I have a pumpkin vine growing and we have been watching this pumpkin grow on the fence.  Its a good size now..

No Socks please.. we are Kids!!

Let me introduce you to part of our sock pile.  Apparently, according to the kids, there is not one pair in this entire container.

Can I also ask.. how is it that socks - only worn to school - not the mud pits - can get so filthy, so disgusting that goodness only knows how they end up this colour?

GROSS!! and yes - these socks were all pristine and white only 5 weeks ago.. they are clean.. well - they were in the washing machine and then hung out.. this is the dry version...

Regal Penguins

I'm a sucker for these little guys.. and what a thrill it was to go to Seaworld and see them up close.   Took heaps of photos and have chosen this one just randomly.

Lilly and the Pony

Lilly is in her element here.  A princess carriage and she gets to drive it! So many shots from our time at TIme Zone - but I think this captures the fun we had the best.

Cooking class

Love helping out in the kitchen with this group of students - One of them was so proud of mastering the spider grip for an onion.. demoed here.

Apple Tea

Oh my! I think I have found my next addiction - this hot apple tea!

Dissections Of the Heart

Yep.. Biology today and I helped out with dissecting hearts.

and here is a creative thing that one of my students decided to do with it..

Magpie Baby

I managed to get fairly close to this magpie baby who has just about lost all of its fluffly feathers.
