Peach party!

We had a fun party here on Sunday. Olan is in a smaller class at school now, only 6 kids, so it seemed a good time to invite the whole gang over. He's in the peach room so it became the peach party. Everyone came and threw themselves into the festivities. The highlight for most of the kids will be Kali's dead rat, discovered halfway through, though I'm sure the adults will remember the good food and all the other stuff. Luckily my parents were away and so missed the temporary destruction of their home by 7 two-year-olds + siblings. :)

"just looking" at the sundae fixings

One dead rat + two (three?) boys = successful party


Had to capture this serious music conversation with baby hanging out of pocket... hilarious.

Insanity

Running out of steam (sugar in their bloodstreams)


Bff's forevah'... and she wore the necklace he picked out for her in Florida, so much sweetness!

Magic beans you say?

Ahh, so much catching up to do. I don't have it in me after a day of partying with 7 two-year-olds so I leave you with these pics of yesterdays live performance of Jack and the Beanstalk, one of Olan's favourite tales. It did not disappoint and we'll be hearing lots more "FEE FI FO FUM" in these parts.

Eagerly awaiting the start of the play


Totally enraptured


Even Tessa thought it was pretty cool


Olan got to take part by helping Jack put a disguise on, and then he got his very own round of applause! His first, but not his last I think. :)
