Weeks events

I cannot believe it has been over a week since we decided to start with our blog and we have not really had a chance to update everyone on the website either. Well the week had been pretty normal with the usual. We had a great week-end as we were out and about on both days.

On Saturday we took a drive out to a friend of mine, Elaine, who I used to work with at Deloitte. Her and her husband own an Ostrich farm on the outskirts of Pretoria. Well my boys were in their element! We were even privileged to see a couple of the ostrich's do a dance for us which really did fascinate the boys. Reece was very happy to find some Ostrich feathers so that he could take them to school to show his teacher "Aunty Sheila". They are currently learning about various birds at school so it was great timing. It was so peaceful out on the farm that we did not want to go home!

On Sunday we went to see other friends of ours, Brenda & Eugene, in Johannesburg but where they are situated you would never think that you are in Johannesburg. It is so peaceful I could have stayed for a couple more days to relax. They have 3 kids and it was such bliss to go somewhere where the kids occupied each other and gave the adults some time to relax and catch up.

So before we knew it the week-end was over and it was back to work and school again today.

Within the next couple of days we have to decide what we will be doing for Reece's birthday. I cannot believe that my little boy is turning 5 already! We asked him the other day what he wants to do for his party. He mentioned he wants to invite all his school friends (ALL 25 of them!) and he wants a real horse for birthday. "That is all!"- he said. So after the shock we are still deciding how to break the news to him.......

I have eventually found a way of linking some pictures to our website so to the left you should see some pics of Bryce's birthday held in June and Mom's 60th Birthday held in May.

Catch up soon!
