When you give a child chocolate....

I think the pictures say it all.....won't be blogging for a while, am off to the Drakensburg for a week of R&R and then a week to Namibia to celebrate my sister Jill's 40th birthday. Will post pics and news on return.....

Trunk or treating.....

Yesterday evening the school arranged an early Halloween gig - 'Trunk or Treating'. We arrived early as we wanted to miss the mad rush. There was a 'Tunnel of Horror' which petrified poor Denny-boy so he had to be taken outside by dad. Emily, Faye and myself managed to get to the end of the tunnel without too many incidents and then headed off to collect some candy.....

A new haircut....

Took both Emily and Dennis for a haircut the other day to a lady called Gina. Pap-Gee who normally cuts their hair has moved to the other side of town and there was no ways I was going to trek across town just for a haircut. So Gina was the lucky one. As always Emily was not a problem - she is a bit of a poser and likes to see herself in the mirror. But Den on the other hand almost had to leave the hairdresser with one short side and one long side!! Fortunately a bottle of coke was used as a bribe by Gina and we managed to get out of there with a full haircut! Gina deserved the extra 10 pin tip I left for all her trouble......

Goggle goggle toil and trouble...

Guess where these little munchkins were off to.....

Chicks in the pool...

It has been so hot the past few days that we decided to blow up the little paddling pool and let the kids cool themselves down. Emily and Faye had a whale of a time....Denny boy was nowhere to be found....

(note: Anne have you noticed that Millies swimming costumes are doing their rounds!!)
