Cinderella meets a princess.......

Izzy went to the cinema this week and was also invited to a special Princess party.

She loved it. The boys stayed at home for this one and spent the day hanging Christmas lights.....

Watch this space for more on that .....

Waiting for Daddy.....

For a change of scenery we went up to Vermont over Thanksgiving.....

Clearly it makes no difference where we are in respect of what time the children wake...

I snuck out for a run, but they were waiting when I got back......

Update on Life in the Big Apple....

Its getting cold, first snowfall over the weekend.....just a thin layer. Not enough to go sledging on, and certainly not enough for a day off work....

That may have happened in London....since it was at least 1.5" of snow at one point......

But we managed to dig ourselves out........

Christmas lights are going up everywhere.....we decided to sit tight and see what the acceptable level of "twinklness" is on the street before we take the plunge.....don't want to understate things........

Some of the houses on a neighbouring road have gone crazy........it looks like Blackpool Illuminations (watch this space for a piccy)

Seb, that is an awsome digger.....

Tobes, that's not just a digger.....its a JCB man.....

Perfect....

Wood for the fire....

Speckled Hen.....

Nice....

Its late, but I realised that I have not posted for ages...so a quick pick for anyone still checking the site !!

Happy Birthday......


Growing up fast.....Izzy turns 4 today...

Cannot quite believe it I must say. Lots of lovely gifts, cards and wishes...so thank you everyone.

She held a little princess party for all her friends...

A real success.....hats off mummy...
