Blowing out the candle

We had a few of our 'mommy and baby' friends around to play, for the afternoon, for Arden's 1st birthday party. Arden seemed to know it was his special day and enjoyed every moment- party pack foraging, toy playing, present opening, candle gazing and cake eating!

New cell phone for Arden!

Arden was spoilt with lots of lovely gifts- one being a toy cell phone from Ouma and Oupa, which he loves.

Arden's snail birthday cake!

Making weird and wonderful cakes is harder than it looks!!

Murder Mystery Eve with friends

We had a 'Murder Mystery' evening with friends last Saturday- set in Casablanca in 1942... Ernst was the Mayor and I, his wife...

World Cup

It's very cool to be able to see Beckham and the Princes in the crowd-more interesting than the score at the moment-still 0-0.

England vs Algeria

Almost in the stadium stadium

Bath time!

FIFA World Cup in South Africa!

Lara and I braved the cold and rain and went to watch Italy vs Paraguay. The enormity and grandeur of the new stadium filled with over 62 000 ppl took my breath away. Both goals were scored under our noses. Looking forward to the next game on Friday!

Afternoon walk

It's minus temp outside and Arden and I are bundled up like snowmen to go for a walk. Arden on his trike!
