Birthday presents and other things...

Well, Robert's birthday is right around the corner (Thursday) so it was about time, that we got him a present! I went to his favourite toyshop and had a look around. In the end - with the help of a friend that I bumped into in the shop - I chose a BIG lorry that tows cars away that are wrongly parked, it has another car on its back and a crane thing. Plus it flashes and makes noise (didn't notice that bit, til I got it home! oops!), I think he will love it.
Unbeknown to Richard he also has a present for Robert. He has got him a game, it has chickens in it (fitting with us having 7!) and you play it with a dice. It looks like fun, and something I will enjoy playing too, seeing as I will be the one playing with him!

Mum made lunch for us!! No she's not here, but she packed me up a goodie bag yesterday. So the boys had "Nanna's spaghetti" again, and I had Mum and Dad's Sunday Roast left overs. Delicious!

We spent the afternoon in the garden again. And what did the boys want to play with most - my clean washing! I convinced them that they weren't going to hang it out for me, but they then after putting ALL of the leftover pegs on the string hanging down from the line, ran around and around in the washing. Grrrr. (Although if I am honest, I seem to recall doing that myself and having a great time. My poor Mum, here's a very belated, but heartfelt "sorry")

Bathtime after tea, and now they are in bed sound asleep - I think!
And I have to remember when I go downstairs to get the washing off the line, otherwise I might have to start again in the morning!

I have two layouts for you, that I made at lunchtime, but they are downstairs, check back later for them.

This first one is of the boys with their new bikes! Both trying to get on them, I shouldn't say trying they did get on them fine!

And this one, was difficult! It was for the Snap It Challenge at Been There Scrapped That, we had to take a picture of ourselves. It has taken me until now, to do this one and the month is nearly up! But I really like the picture I got of me (I did take my glasses off to get it, so I couldn't really see, what I was smiling at!). Scrapping it I found a bit difficult, much easier to scrap the kids!

Not bad going for a day 3 layouts posted here, and two that I can't post on the blog, they are for friends of my brothers (a couple of their wedding photos!)

Bye 4 now
