Matthew's Early 5th Birthyday Celebration with School Friends

We decided to celebrate Matthew's birthday with his school friends early this year.  His birthday is mid December and there's a good chance his friends would be unavailable during the Christmas season in December. 

The theme for Matthew's party was Star Wars this year.  The boys got Jedi knight training from Anakin Skywalker himself!  They also loved the Lego Star Wars chocolate cupcakes!  Everyone had a blast!

Favourite Kids Song - Down By The Bay

Here`s the lyrics to Matty`s favourite new song:

My favourite rhyme is: ``Have you ever seen a teacher, kissing a creature``...down by the bay...


Down by the bay
 Where the watermelons grow
 Back to my home
 I dare not go
 For if I do
 My mother will say
"Did you ever see a moose
Kissing a goose?"
Down by the bay

Down by the bay
 Where the watermelons grow
 Back to my home
 I dare not go
 For if I do
 My mother will say
 "Did you ever see a whale
 With a polka dot tail?"
 Down by the bay

Down by the bay
 Where the watermelons grow
 Back to my home
 I dare not go
 For if I do
 My mother will say
 "Did you ever see a fly
 Wearing a tie?"
 Down by the bay
 Down by the bay

Halloween 2012 Trick or Treat and Total Miscalculation

Halloween with the kids. 

School parade...

Trick or treating in the rain like a trooper...

And here are the spoils...

In total, we had only 4 visits to the house the whole night.... of course we conservatively went with a 90 pack of candy bars thinking it wouldn't be enough...... total miscalculation....so we got lots of left over ammunition.......

Halloween 2012 Carving the Pumpkins

Here's a couple pics of our pumpkins. 
This one was Matty's based on his original drawings.

This one was mine - freehand no stencils.
