Day 175 - Dani's Birthday Lunch

Yesterday was Dani's birthday and today we went for lunch at a cafe in Parramatta Lakes. I tried very hard to get a photo of Dani with her gorgeous birthday cake, but as the candles were lit, the children there wanted to get in close to the cake, as children do! David organised a delicious white chocolate and strawberry swirled mud cake with white chocolate ganache which was enjoyed by all, including Henry who kept wanting more. Happy Birthday Dani!

Day 174 - Henry's First Escalator Trip

We tried this the other week, but Henry wouldn't have a bar of it... the escalator that is! Today he was happy to do it and then to go back down and do it again! Holding on tightly to his Dad's hand of course. We had a very big shopping trip today, which we don't get to do very often, but Henry was enjoying himself, so we were able to buy a few things for each of us and to get something for Dani's birthday, which is today!

Day 69 - Family Dinner

We had a late dinner tonight after Mum, David and Dani arrived at about 8.30. Jenna and Henry ate earlier and were in bed when we enjoyed a chicken korma, with a nice little range of chutneys on the side. You may remember I posted last week about the apples that we 'grew'. I made a nice sweet and spicy chutney with them last weekend and it went very well with the curry!
