All electroniced up and ready to go!
Stopping off for some fun and running around
And more running around Te Papa, kids choice!
Eden practicing her posing!
"Take photo me too"
Divine intervention?
Best friends!
Girls in the grass
Lachie the ripsticker, turned a few heads being so comparatively little and so good!
He makes it look so easy!
Lots to look at!
And a night of yellow and cheering, and an awesome win! And "the best in the whole world" Aunty Jayne (Lachie's words) who gave us her VIP parking pass, straight in with all the celebs!

Making the decorations for Nannie's annual carrot Easter Bunny cake...Cooper's trying a bit of Stirling's birthday present out, playdough!!!
The finished cake. Standing one's are my examples, kids did all the "flat" ones! We used different sized circles, some cut through.
Lachie making our invented "tasty uglies", ganache covered fudge balls for special people (and us!!)
Mmmm, hot cross buns (the organic Lachie-friendly kind!). True Masterchef look!
They were great!
Withhold all the clues, ready to start the hunt! Getting more and more cryptic each year now with half of the group being readers!
And off they go! First clue too easy, "where duck live by the water inside" or something like that...
Using a picture of a cabbage tree/cordyline, but off to the wrong one!
When it was all over Nannie and Grand-da said they were coming over, so the kids made clues to help the, find all THEIR treats!!!

Lily in her new "black, white, alright" kilt outfit. Very excited!
My dancing girls 
Eden got all dressed up for the occasion too! With some help from her teacher and Nannie! (And a quick stop in at the Warehouse on the way for some black shoes to set the outfit off!) 
The judge from Scotland, with Lily's group ready to start one of three dances... 
Their teacher (left) took Eden to dance for another "judge" 
All of the CHB primary grade girls in their first competition (I've been holding Eden back since she's so much younger than the other girls) 
All the little angels with their proud teacher Julie Appleton-Seymour 
Medal time!!! And goodie bag time too!
Guess who's ready to start competitions now!!!
Eden and Lily with Abby (one of the special "teachers helpers") and Charlotte, who despite being sick, won 1st place for the 5 year olds in all 3 dances
Then we went and had a visit/demo for the Lundbergs and Sophie, Kate and Mike

Earlier this term a big photo of Lily and Eden was in the paper, advertising Mainly Music's new day. It was taken 2 years ago, and to celebrate Easter Mainly Music had another red and pink "love" day...this time was for Eden and Cooper...
Guess who's been teaching Eden to pose!
And, like passing the torch, Eden has taught Cooper her now patented toe pointing pose...
21st photos galore, hehehe!!!
