Backdated: Last Lighthouse

I've been taking one or more of my kids to the Christ Church toddler group, Lighthouse, for about 7 years. It's hard to believe that this was the last time. They all loved it!

Backdated: Alathea's 1st Sports Day

Alathea competed in a relay, mini howler throw, space hopper race, sack race, egg and spoon race, long jump, the hurdles, and a sprint. She was pleased at the end of the morning to find out that her team scored the most points!

Backdated: Seasick Songs

I should give up filming the girls' performing at school while trying to hold onto Theo. I'm sure it makes for a comical spectacle, as he usually tries to wiggle out of my arms and ends up hanging head downward, while the camera in my other hand unintentionally pans to and fro. With that preface, I will finish by saying, if you'd like to hear Sophia's Junior Choir from Parish Church of England Primary School performing silly songs, watch the video below. Whether or not you'll see much is far less certain...

Backdated: Narnian Nuts

Because Sophia and I both love The Chronicles of Narnia, we made her birthday party revolve around the 7 seven books:
 Making Queen Lucy's cordial
 And Queen Susan's horn
Sophia (dressed regally) with her magic cordial and horn
 
 Glowing ring toss into the pools in the 'Wood Between the Worlds'
Two more games: dress as a talking animal and unwrap the parcel to find Turkish delight +
get the Archenlanders in the castle before Rabadash the Calormen attacks
 Pin the tail on Reepicheep
 Quest to find lost Narnian lords and Aslan
 How low can you go to avoid an evil green serpent?
 A bit of archery
 
 Daddy's map of Narnia cake
 And a Narnian board game Sophia and I created.
