Long For The Flowers

Making lunch for the boys, and I thought it would be fun to use their tea set. They seem to love it.   When I brought the tea set-up to the boys, they were surprised and excited for the way I set it up. Layden started telling Ryleigh's secrets which turned out that I wasn't invited to their lunch. Layden wanted Brotherly lOve time.  How could I get upset, they love each other so very much. Ryleigh pointed out that chicken nuggets are not high tea food. He wanted small sandwiches and cookies. Next time Ryleigh.  Layden was upset I came into the room for pictures when it was Brotherly lOve time.  Layden loves his big brother so much. 

Layden came into the kitchen with a backwards hat and an orange in each hand. "Orange Juice, mommy." He was excited to make orange juice now that he knows how to make it. Another proud moment for Layden. He was the biggest cutie ever. Such a cutie!!!!! The boys and I had a day together to do wherever we wanted. I thought it would be a great day to paint together. Let out minds take us where ever it wants to go.  The boys love having High Tea with me, so today I made a high tea lunch for the boys. 

It's July 9, 2011, we been living in Australia for just over 2.5 months. It's hard to believe that there is still so much to see and explore. We wanted to explore the Melbourne's Parks and Gardens.  The Shrine of Remembrance, based on a description of the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus in Asia Minor, honors soldiers who gave their lives in war.  The kids ran up the stairs so fast. We were excited about the stairs and nothing else. Chris and I were more curiosity our the The Shrine of Remembrance. They are so little. The Pioneer Women's Garden was built in 1934 to honor the memory of Victoria's founding women.  The boys were excited to put their hands in the water. If given the chance they would have jumped in.  A view of the city of Melbourne.  Royal Botanic Garden and Kings Domain These adjoining gardens were created on the bend of the Yarra River before the river was straightened. The Botanic Gardens ho...

My Early Birthday Gift.  I have been wanting for a very long time and English tea set. For this birthday Chris got me an English Tea Set. I couldn't wait to get home and have tea with my family.  The boys absolutely loved it.  While making tea, Layden showed off his claiming skills.  The Pancake Parlour at the Jam Factory We had a wonderful breakfast before getting my tea set at the Pancake Parlour. The boys loved all the decor around the jam factory.  Jam Factory Cinema Complex This former jam factory has been given a thorough make-over in Hollywood style. Though some vestiges of its 19th-century existence, such as the IXL Jam Factory, have been preserved, the building has been transformed with bold colours and cinematic sculpture into an entertainment hub, Major pulls are large cinema complex and the restaurants.
