HAVE A HAPPY EASTER....

Today Sophie had her Easter Hat Parade that they do at school, the older 2 girls don't do Easter Hat's anymore (to old for that) and every other year when the other girls have had there parades I have gone up to the school to help them decorate there hats, but since were at a new school this year I didn't know what to expect and didn't get a note to say that they needed craft items (with the other girls we had to buy all that stuff) so just thought that maybe they didn't do Easter Hats at this school, but was told yesterday that the Easter Hat Parade was happening today, I asked Sophie if she had made a hat and she said YES I made it and decorated all by myself so I was interested to see how her creation turned out & she did a wonderful job - you can't really see all the detail in this photo because she stuck the ears on the front of the paper plate instead of the side & it kept flopping forward LOL but she had chocolate wrappers stuck on it, cotton wool and the most beautiful set of coloured in ears I was amazed at how good all the kids hats looked with different colours and ideas... they did there march around and it was so hard to get a decent photo with so many kids marching around but I was glad I got some good ones of the whole class before they went over to do there parade...

I can't beleive it is the end of Term 1 already although I am really looking forward to the holidays, we aren't really going away anywhere there is so much that we need to do around the house & I have to get everything organised for Sophie's birthday next week (we are hiring a JUMPING CASTLE, which will be so much fun for the kids, I just hope it doesn't RAIN!) she absolutely loves Frangipanni's so we are going with that theme, we even found a Frangipanni Cake in one of my cake books so it will be good to have the kids home so they can help me out.

OMG!!! Is this really my 11 year old daughter, she went out tonight with her friends to the movies and asked me to straighten her hair and I couldn't beleive how grown up she looks, which made me feel really old LOL! I am so NOT READY for this Stage but it just doesn't seem to wait until you are ready & I don't think I will ever be ready - it was just a taste of the things that I have look forward to over the next LOTS of years, she is not a girly, girly at all and my other two are Girly, Girl so I think I am going to go through lots of hair products, make-up, lipgloss & all that girly stuff.....

Well I just wanted to wish everyone a SAFE & HAPPY EASTER - if you are travelling please take care on the roads and ENJOY your time with YOUR LOVED ONES... hope the Easter Bunny brings you lots of choccies (I don't think he will bring me any this year as he knows I'm on a DIET, but I think I might sneak a few of the girls...... SSSSHHHHHHHH).


Take Care,
Raechel :o)
