Still Celebrating

It's been a great weekend for Danny. On Friday night our babysitter and her younger sister came over to watch the boys while Craig and I went shopping and they had such a fun time. They love their babysitter and Jack was so excited to play with a 3rd grade girl. I think he has a crush on her.


Saturday morning we took them to a local cinema with friends to watch short movies and dance to the local group The Shazzbots. Of course they insisted that the mums got up to boogie too.


On Saturday night we went over to our new neighbour's house for after dinner drinks. They have 2 boys 7 & 5 so perfect playmates for our lads. The 4 of them played so well together and we had a good time with the parents. We had a few beers and some apple moonshine and tasted their homemade bacon jam, which was too weird!  I am going to like living opposite these people.
Today we let Danny open his presents. He got some lovely presents off his grandparents and English family. We got him his Tigger. I LOVE this picture as it captures his good heart.

This afternoon we took them to our friends house for a play-date and birthday cake. As usual they had a great time and didn't want to leave. These friends just moved into a new house near us so it was great to see it and hear all their plans for decorating. I love to talk about houses and DIY projects (a lot more than doing them). It inspired me to write our "to do" list when I got home. You can imagine Craig's face.

Tonight we took them to an indoor adventure place to romp about and play games. We also took his birthday measurement against the door frame in their bedroom. Look how tall Danny is! As a clever person on Facebook said "Jack & the beanstalk!"


Danny will be TALL!!
They were in bed by 8, but Danny messed about till 9. He is a whirling dervish. I'll post more about him tomorrow, on his official birthday.

Nan sent glow-in-the-dark balloons!
