Another tooth gone!

William lost another tooth overnight, this one was sitting in his mouth when he woke up, very lucky not to swallow. So just had to post some ultra cute, toothless smiles from the boy!

Will’s handwriting

Will is trying so hard at school, and is starting to make good progress which is fantastic to see. Today he wrote out a birthday card for a friend, and although he was copying what I wrote I was so proud of his effort. His handwriting is getting so neat!

Things you can see at night

We had a Joey Scout Sleepover tonight, and the theme was things you see at night. We did a bit of a night tour and saw the following …

First of all we saw the ‘Touching Lightly’ sculpture at the Canberra Glassworks. Although it does look speccy at first glance, it doesn’t actually do anything, so it did get a bit boring …

I had a quick go at an artistic photo .. this shot was taken of Will swinging his torch around, he moved out of shot before the long exposure finished so it doesn’t look like he is even there.

The we went up to Mt Ainslie and looked at the night view, it is lovely up there!

And lastly we visited the ‘Illumicube‘ outside the Canberra Centre. It is very cool, and is motion activated. So the Joeys ran around it lots to make it change colours.

A late night then ensued as we had a campfire, made UV paintings and ate yummy possum meringues! A fun time had by all.

Bowral Day trip

We decided to go on a day trip up to Bowral and back for a spot of geocaching and to visit the home of ‘The Don’. In the end we didn’t get a chance to see the Bradman Museum, maybe next time. But it was a nice a day with the Glews with a spot of geocaching done as well …. 13 caches in all!

Hooly Dooly!

It has been about 6 weeks since I updated my poor neglected blog … oops … it has just been busy and we have had sickness galore in this house. Culminating with me having tonsillitis  from hell! I have never been in more pain, and I am mighty glad that I am now on the mend. Although I must admit that Jordan has been slow going recovering from his, and is still getting tired at things.

Well, I am going to attempt to update photos and things from the past 6 weeks, so if you are a regular visitor make sure you scroll down over the weekend as I fill it up.

Today, Jordan and I went shopping in town. Real exciting stuff like a new mixer and some crafty coloured wool. For some reason I have decided to knit finger puppets, and other toys. I have this idea of maybe running a semi-regular group for making things like this for the school fete next year. We will see!

We also managed to do some geocaching .. will update that other site soon with our adventures!

Meanwhile here are my first creations …

Space Junk Rockets!

Tom had a fun time at cubs making a Space Rocket. They needed to go to Cubs with a plan of what they were going to do, and also with the bits they needed to create it. Apparently Tom finished his pretty quickly!
