Feather - Psalm 91:4
"He will cover you with His feathers,
and under His wings you will find refuge;
    His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart."

Sempervivum Succulent
The common names and history of Sempervivum are as interesting as
the plant itself. Translated, Sempervivum means “always living,” or the
common name of live forever. A common European name, derived from the
practice of growing them on rooftops, is houseleek. In the United States
they are most commonly known as hens and chicks, though they are
sometimes called cats and kittens or even old man and old woman.

This little piggy ...
This little piggy went to market,
This little piggy stayed at home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy went...
"Wee wee wee" all the way home...

Sandpit toys
On Saturday while clearing out hubby's rubbish dump at the side of our house, we also managed to clean up Reuben's sandpit. He has been having great fun building sandcastles and playing with all the other sandpit toys.

Koi at Papachinos
 

Papachinos


On Sunday the boys and I spent the day with very good friends of ours, Eric and Marlene. We were spoilt rotten. They took us to Papachinos aka kids paradise, where we had the best pizza ever and the boys could play to their hearts content.
Strawberry ice cream and a blue balloon sword - What more can a boy ask for? 
 
On the way out we stopped to admire the magnificent Koi and for Eric and Jos to show off their strength!! 
  
 
 
When we got back from Papachinos there were more surprises. Reuben loved the outfits he got for Christmas and insisted on trying one on and then decided to just keep it on!

Another mystery mushroom
On Saturday while clearing out all the rubbish that my husband had dumped had accumulated at the side of our house, my youngest and I discovered these mushrooms growing in a forgotten little corner of our garden. I have made a half hearted attempt to consult Mr Google on this one, but have decided to just go straight to Pat O'Reilly for help. Will let you know as soon as I hear anything!

Reuben's Christmas Tree
Last night Reuben had his Christmas tree at his Nursery School. The evening was kicked off with the little ones singing Christmas carols, followed by the graduation ceremony for Reuben's best friend, Clement who is going to "Big" school next year. The highlight of the evening was no doubt the arrival of Father Christmas. What a clever man he is - Reuben got a toy guitar he so desperately wanted but mommy wouldn't buy!
