Happy Fathers Day xxx

We had a really lovely day yesterday as it was my friends wedding day and also their son's Christening!  Congratulations to Emma, Andy & Harry!

Also HAPPY FATHER'S DAY today my lovely dad and Mark xxxx

We had mom and dad round for Sunday lunch today.  We actually got up at 4.45am to put the beef in the slow cooker as neither of us could sleep after eating so much at the wedding!  We were so full and wide awake we were unable to sleep!

  Lunch today - slow cooked beef, roast potatoes, yorkshire puddings, butternut squash, parsnips, cauliflower cheese and onion gravy.

I also made a honey cake for pudding.

Anais has painted more of her carousel model.  It is actually a "working" model and the centre spins round.

They have both been amusing themselves with this paper folding book I got out of the library last week.  Roman's particular favourite is to try and make paper planes.  I think dad made this one?

We finally got round to buying "The Hunger Games" dvd!!!  Well, Mark picked it up in the week from a huge Sainsbury's on his way home, as they sold the 3 disk version with special features.  It is only £7 in store and our local store had stopped stocking it.

So was it any good?  Hmmmmm, not as good as the book (but they never are) but still good.  It didn't deviate from the book too much though lots had been left out and didn't really go into much depth.  Without reading the book you could still watch and understand the film, though I think we were both pleased we had read the book and understood situations and reasoning's characters made and discussed.
