I'm still here!!!

I'm still here :) We finished getting our stuff out of the house and cleaning it yesterday! We will hopefully go to Saudi next week Inshallah.

Its Mums birthday today! We went and had "high tea" at a lovely tea shop! Here are some photos:

Skipton floods

This morning we went to a friend's house in Skipton to check on their chickens while they are away. There has been a lot of rain the past few days..... here are some photos we took of main street in Skipton.

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Yesterday we went to see The Voyage of the Dawn Treader! We went Gold Class so that was cool :) You can't see The Voyage of the Dawn treader with Gold Class so the friends that bought the tickets booked the whole theater! It turned out cheaper. It was very fancy and the movie was great. If you haven't seen it you should :)

Happy new year!

Happy new year everyone! A day late but better late then never :) Us kids have gone to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They have a gorgeous puppy but she wouldn't stand still long enough for me to take a picture (she's a bit hyper active)

Our suitcases are packed and when we get back the removalists will have packed up the house so I hope i didn't forget anything. Hopefully we will get our visa's soon :)

Sugar cookies

Today I made some Christmas cookies. Sugar cookies because I don't like gingerbread :) Here is the recipe:


1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
2 tsp baking powder
3 cups flour


Cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Mix in egg. Add dry ingredients.
Shape into cookies and bake until light brown.

Party bags and castles

Today we went to Spotlight and got some fabric which I am using to make some party bags to sell at my Auntie Christie's market up north.The other day I went to an art shop and I got some acrylic paint and some metallic paint. So I used them to paint a castle.

This will keep me busy!

Dad cut some boards for me to carve and paint on......

This will keep me busy painting for a long time! I carved and painted this picture already. Now what should I paint next?
