The end of a Playcentre year! Only one more for Olive and a few more for Iris! Lovely bunch of people.

And the back fence & planter is finally completed! Tops on the fence and planter are on (unfortunately at the loss of half a peonies due to a wayward saw). Only waiting on the plants to put in the planter now.

So hot today! So we grabbed some f&cs and hit to beach for tea. Both girls enjoyed getting wet! Loving this hot weather! Over 32 today!

Olive was super excited about going into town to get her ballet outfit. She loved it so much she wouldn't take it off (slightly awkward moment when we are leaving and she is acting like a brat, yelling I want a crown!) but the moment she dancing around the store, priceless. So excited we fell asleep on route home.

Our favourite drawing so far. 'Aliens' by Olive. It is wonderful to see the development in her drawing. In Wednesday she wanted to take 'autumn leaves' to kindy and then did leaf stamping. In general I've noticed a lot more colouring in areas and details like dresses, feet and hair, people have bodies now and animals feature now too. This is the most use of colour in one drawing. 'Aliens flying around stars in the sky'

We were invited to the neighbours for a little backyard BBQ. Lots of fun and reminds us how lucky we are to have such lovely families around us.

Happy birthday olive! A princesses and pirates dress up Playcentre birthday with cupcakes and the special birthday chair. You had a lovely busy time dressing up, playing with ropes and playing with Freya and Caterina. You were so happy that I popped out for 10mins to drop Iris off home for a nap!

We often forget to check our inca garden, and we finally got around to taking a photo of olive and her kindy sunflower. Tomatoes are amazing! Lots of beans and the carrots are ready.
