Tahlia was very keen to help open the presents |
Zachary is very interested in the solar system so he made Daddy a solar system card (the other planets are inside) |
Tahlia made Daddy a birthday card and wrote her name inside |
Daddy had some friends round for a special birthday meal; Zachary helped make the treacle tart |
Here's Tahlia making Daddy a birthday cake |
Food and quiz with church friends |
We had a 6 hour power cut due to a smoking electrical box and the little ones loved watching the firemen outside |
Daddy also had a party in Cardiff...
As always, it was a tasty cheese party! |
The kids loved playing with some of their Cardiff friends |
The swords came out... |
Poor Uncle Steve! |
Ptolemy: "Him, not me!" |
Out came the hazelnut mocha cake |
Elisha enjoys some more cheese |
Here are a few other things we've been up to in the first half of October...
Zachary made a 'nocturnal animal' board game; you have to make it to the safety of your burrow |
We took a trip to the local playground to collect acorns for our treasure boxes and we also found this... |
Bouncing on the coloured seats |
Boo! |
All playing Connect 4 together |
Zachary's current project: the solar system |
Making tasty blackberry crumble |
Spreading the blackberries |
Playing along at our weekly session of Bash 'n' Bang |
Here we are on a trip to Dartmoor whilst the weather was still good...
Tahlia is very interested in shadows |
Sitting near the base of Hound Tor |
Who can make the biggest jump from the rock? |
Jory enjoys the fantastic views |
A well-deserved rest at the base of Hound Tor; we also found several hidden letterboxes around here (a bit like geocaching) |
Scrambling to the top |
Ptolemy, once again, removes his shoes and socks |
Playground fun at King George V playing fields...
Jory counts how long he can keep hold |
Jumping for joy |
Building sandcastles |
Here we are on a day out with Bumble to the Devon Railway Centre in Bickleigh...
They couldn't resist a quick slide |
The little train takes you on a tour of the gnome-infested grounds |
They all loved seeing the mini gnome towns |
All ready for a ride on the big train |
Zachary was the train guard - he had to wave the flag to tell the driver when to set off |
Cuddles with Bumble |
Playing with the wooden train set |
There's nothing more fun than pressing a button |
Ball pool fun |
Crazy golf: the highlight of Zachary's day |
Taking a look at the model village |
One more go on the shiny slide before home time |
