Billy's 2nd birthday
Billy had a great birthday, he had a party in the park, there were a few rain drops but that didn't seem to bother any of the kids, just stress the mums out a little. He was so happy to see his friends and have party food, he was running round saying 'party, party' and since friday has yelled party at a number of other gatherings including xmas today. I figure his life has pretty much been one big party this last week. The pics are his birthday morning, his party and some from the next day enjoying his gifts, a ride in car from us, a table and chairs from the grans and his trike from his dad.

We interrupt the 12 days of xmas to bring you this week...







Isabella finished school, gave the prize giving speech, won the top science prize and a school service award, and graduated the next night. Somewhere in the last few months she has grown from a little girl into a young woman. She and her friends all looked stunning at their graduation.
Harriet also finished her first year at school. She starred as chicken licken in a play her class put on for fiafia day last saturday and got an awesome first report. She is excited to be moving up a class next year.
Billy turned two today. I can't believe my baby is that old. He had such a fun day running round saying party party. All his friends and whanau joined him in the park for a picnic tea, slideshow to come but here are some pics of the birthday boy.
Tomorrow we return to xmas preparations.

On the first day of Christmas.....



the small boy chose for the christmas tree
the campest santa you ever did see
each year the kids get to pick a new decoration for the tree, my theory is by the time they leave home they will each have a box of decorations to take with them. Isabella picked a dove that looked like the greenpeace dove, harriet a glittery star that resembles one of her bollywood earrings and billy...well we thought he might pick a star or a train...no he picked a santa, he has no real idea who santa is so we were a little puzzled till he pointed out to us 'look shoes, shoes, look his shoes'. Santa has not just shoes but high heeled black boots and combined with his flared santa coat he really is rather camp.
