Where did he go?

An interesting story from the weekend.

While the girls were on their way to Adventure World, they were chatting away together in the car. Dad manage to catch the tail end of a conversation which ended with Courtney saying, "I don't know where he died, I guess he went back to Queensland."

When quizzed Courtney told Dad that she and Brooke had been talking about Easter and where Jesus was when he died.
We're guessing Pa had something to do with this?

Adventure World (again)

The girls went to Adventure World again today. As always they had a great time although Brooke was a bit 'standoffish', not wanting to go down the water slides or go swimming. Still they went of a few rides and were really good (understanding) when they had to take turns or miss out on doing certain things because of the odd number.

Maybe next year, we'll only go once. We don't think the girls (as always) understand how good they have it.

It's all in the name

With Easter getting closer, Dad bought the girls some hot-cross-buns which they outright refused to even try, claiming that they had tried them before and that they definately did not like them.
20 mintues later... Brooke loves the 'rasin toast' that Dad made, it's just like the toast the Nana makes.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNTY JODIE

Brooke's 4th Birthday

Today was Brooke's 4th Birthday. Both the girls were very excited and could hardly wait to get into their party dresses. Brooke had some friends from school and her swimming class come over for a small party and then she got to have her My Little Pony birthday cake.
She was (as always) spoilt by everyone's presents, so far her favorite is the Pegasus and Cloud Queen (Barbie)

After her party, Brooke went with Auntie Kirstie for a play at her house and then we all had dinner at Nana and Grandad's - followed by another birthday cake.

The Beach



This afternoon, Dad and the girls went down to the beach and made sandcastles and played in ankle deep water. The girls loved it and no doubt we'll be going back before the end of summer.

Will it ever end?

Yesterday Courtney went to see the Doctor, with a view of getting the manky plaster taken off her arm. After getting it wet in the bath and Nana's pool, not to mention the paint, tomato sauce etc that was on it, the cast needed to be changed and was no longer offering any support.

The Doctor took the cast off and did not replace it - seems she is on the mend.

Then today, whilst playing at school, one of Courtney's friends swung he hand back and struck CJ in the face, knocking out another tooth. Unfortunately "the tooth landed on Madison's shoe, but she thought it was a coconut, so it's in ESC"

CJ wrote the Tooth Fairy a note which explained where she could find the tooth.

We'll see what tomorrow brings.
