It's given Dan an excuse to get out some of his old Star Wars models ... it's so nice to see them played with rather than just gathering dust!



(Dan wants those who care [....] to know that this is the Battle of Hoth they are re-creating ...)

They've even got to Bekah ...

AND she can do sound effects!!

Finally catching up with the Christmas photos!!! It seems like such a long time ago ...

The boys (with their Christmas hats!)


And the girls ...

The cousins playing Just Dance on the wii - who's got the moves?!

Very cute cousin photos! :0)


(Kezia and Bekah had turned their cardigans into aprons so they could be waitresses)

My little sister wrapped her presents so fancily that I didn't want to open them! :0)


The marble run set from Grandma and Grandad has been a hit too!


Rebekah the hair stylist ...


She loved this hairstyling set from Grandma and Grandad ... and now Mummy doesn't have to go to the hair dressers ....

Indiana Jones and his Grandad ... :0)

Ex-STRAW-donary .... playign with Connecta Straws (see what I did there??)


Bekah bustin' some moves on her wii Just Dance game ... :0)


Looking at the life boat close-up ...



Watching the crazy people go swimming in the freezing cold sea on boxing day (from the comfort of a local cafe!)



Mummy found Bekah's face paints provided an outlet for her artistic skills ...

(and the fact that Bekah will sit still while she does it is an unexpected bonus!)

James was very pleased with his Indianna Jones hat and game for the wii ....



Bekah asked FC for a xylophone (and of course she's played with it every day ... not!)

Christmas PJ's ...

Grandad and James with the Santa Train at Aylesham


Bekah sharing her Christmas Cake baking expertise with Nanny ...


A walk on the Common near Nanny and Grandad's House

Baking the Christmas Cake with Bekah ...




For the first time ever I made a Christmas Cake this year (Dan's done it once before with James) and my little helper was Bekah. She loved doing it and even came up with the idea of putting a snowman on the top and making it the North Pole. The cake was really yummy too!

Love this smiley photo ... :0)

Little Miss Dress Up Christmas Style!


One day she decided to put their christmas stockings on as boots - she thought it was hilarious (and so did James!)

Nice photo of James playing with all the nativity sets by the tree

James' First School Nativity play ....


One of the highlights for me this year was watching both munchkins in their nativity plays. James' friend from school told his mummy that James was going to be "one of the village people" which caused great amusement! :0) Turned out he was one of the villagers in Bethlehem and he looked like a shepherd. He was so cute and I was sooo proud of him. Wasn't that long ago that he would've totally freaked out doing something like this!

Rebekah was a shepherd in her pre-school nativity :0)

Been behind on uploading photos to the blog again so here are a few from the last couple of months! :0)
