Jabber jabber yap yap

So why am I blogging ?  
My brain is turning into mush and there are way too many holes in my memory bank.
I try to download info to BFF at least daily, but her brain is in the same state ... maybe worse (cos she's older and has more kids ;-)  ! )  
We chat pretty much everyday (except weekends [sounds like a job ! ;-) ]) and yet there are still many topics we didn't cover, so I blog it so that I get to tell her things and it is on record for later when I can't recall what month we played dress-up!

Talking about dress-up .... 
Summer came to visit this week, just a short visit - she's left again today.
So out came the summer day playgroup goodies!

ZS blew up the pool and set up a tent for shade.
The kids had on bathers and sunblock and splashed about.  Funny thing though, the only one who CAN swim didn't want to get in ! Perhaps this was too "local" for her and all the "gam" splashing in her eyes was too irritating !
So what were the outfits ? HULA SKIRTS!!! Don't they look cute ?

The boys also had flowers, but felt it was too girly! Even DH wouldn't wear it and he has been dressed up by DD in worse !





Have you SEEN real Hula girls ?  
They are quite hippy aren't they ?  So after seeing how cute the little ones looked, we decided we also wanted to put Hula skirts on. Let me just say that I needed to breathe more than Hula, so I took it off !

I just had to add this picture.  Besides being a bee, THIS had to be DS's best day!



As happy as a pig (or hippo if you want the halaal version) in mud!
To secure his spot, he broke a chocolate cupcake in the water, the sight of which put the other kids off going in !!
