Disney Snow...

In the parks, Disney even controls the snow - three times a day, for each parade...

First School Pics

The boys had their first school pictures taken the other week. How proud are we of our fantastic little boys....

Father Christmas the Third

Another visit to Father Christmas. This time at the Christmas Fair put on by the boys' nursery. Some might say this was the best Father Christmas of all, but they might be biased...

The Reindeer and the Fairy

Theo, Charlie and the rest of their class at nursery put on a Christmas play for us the other day. Given their age, it was only a few songs but great fun. Some of the children suffered a bit of stage fright, whilst others (fortunately including our two) looked confident in front of a dozen or so proud, grown-up faces.

Theo was dressed up as a reindeer...

..whilst Charlie wanted to dress up as a fairy. In fact, we were asked beforehand whether we minded Charlie wearing a fairy outfit! Of course, we didn't - think of the embarrassment we can wreak as he grows up...

12 Volt Scooter Dudes

We've been meaning to post these pictures for a while. In addition to the push along scooters that the boys got for their birthday. Some friends of ours also kindly gave us their old motorised scooters! Charlie seems to love his more than Theo so we've yet to get any pics of Theo on his before the cold weather set in.

Here's some pics...

Father Christmas The Return...

How many times is too many times to see Santa in the run up to Christmas Day? Never enough!

Here's a couple of (slightly grainy iPhone) pictures from our visit to see the big man at the local garden centre (better than it sounds!)

Santa Lands in Shepherds Bush

We had our first Santa visit of the season the other week when he arrived at Westfield Shopping Centre in West London.

Following a ten minute 3D film (how very 2010!) we got the chance to meet the big man himself.
