The Grand Ball


Being at school surely keeps me busy.. so busy that blogging has unfortunately taken a back seat.. While we all have lots of photos and stories still to post I wanted to quickly share with you all the ever important event on my social calender, happening this Saturday - The Grand Ball!! After weeks and weeks of practicing we are all finally ready to put on our ball gowns (the girls that is) and show everyone how well the prep class can waltz. Only 4 more sleeps..

the joy of chocolate.. oops we mean Easter

No matter how hard we tried, the year we were unable to find any chocolate suprises left by Easter Bunny.. So after breakfast we headed outside and in doing so we discovered that he had been playing in our garden. We wasted no time getting our boots on to find the chocolate and then of course taste it.. After a morning tea of chocolate and more chocolate we headed to Nanny's house for a big family easter feast. Because there were so many of us we dined outside on the new deck in the sunshine. After lunch it was time for some games, some outside bush style kid cooking and of course another egg hunt complete with some chocolate style gifts from Nanny and Aunty Shannon. After dinner the plan was to go home but instead we decided that a sleep over at our cousins houe was a better idea. Although it was late when we all finally got to bed we still had some energy to play and talk before sleep. The next morning we all woke up super early and athough we tried really hard to be quiet it wasn't long before the grown ups were awake as well. Poor Uncle Mick didn't look so happy to be awake though and in an attempt to feel better he decided to go for a swim in the pool. What a crazy uncle we have..

Good Friday

Good Friday this year sure was good!!!! With Aunty Shannon and Dan in tow we jumped on the train and decided to head into the Good Friday appeal. After having our faces painted and after winning some running races there were belly dancers to watch and jumping castles waiting to be jumped on. We even got to see the big green oval that the footy players play on while we ate our lunch. The highlight of the day was however when we got home and found some chocolate bunnies sitting on our back door step. Thank you secret easter bunnies (you know who you are.. )

banking

For over five years now I have been collecting coins.. Finally last week I got to take some of these coins to the bank and deposit them straight into my account.. Watching the coins being automatically sorted and conted was kind of cool. Much cooler than the way that Mum told me she used to count and deposit money when she was a little girl. I wonder what I will buy with my money when I'm older...

Love Amelia

nap time
