Eight is great!

Last week our youngest member of our family turned 8!

For his birthday he got a new “big” bike with gears and brakes, with which he was well pleased.

He had a party with SIXTEEN kids, in our house (!) last Saturday, but thanks to the magic tricks and humour of Magic George the magician we all survived to tell the tale.

We had a Skylander cake and Skylander cupcakes (thanks to ebay who provided the edible skylanders)

I had a go at layering jelly – the kids were impressed!

On the occasion of his birthday I decided to do something I have always had great intentions of doing, but never got around to ….. interviewing my son to have a glimpse of his life, aged 8.
