Welcome to the Circus!

Back again!

Some pics from the weekend..

{Day10} - Jaxon @ the school footy comp.

the pics are numbered in order of sequence lol
The bigger kid was really picking on Jaxon..
But he managed to hold his own and get away from him & knock him over!!
and all without letting go of the ball! Woohoo! it was a great game to watch.

{Day11} - New Jackets

The inlaws brought these back from sydney for the kids.
the hoods zip right up and cover their faces! with little holes for their eyes.
We actually had footy, and then a footy club sausage sizzle @ the park this day too.. and i forgot my camera! doh.

{Day 12}

Caprice loving the drive in Jason's Van.

And Jayda.. singing to pINK with her hairbrush microphone!

{Day 9} SOme pics from today.
1. my friend Helen, who came over today to learn how to scrapbook!
She finished 2 pages and is already looking forward to doing more.
2. The kids having breakky early this morning, Jaxon always makes cereal for himself in Jayda in the mornings.. unless he wants toast then its my turn to cook lol
3. A couple of days ago, Jayda came inside to tell me "Mum! Caprice is naked!", when i went outside to have a look.. she didn't have her collar on lol.. so this is her new one blue with bling bones! Noice.
