A Passion for Kendal
After months of planning and preparing today was finally the day when the first part of Kendal Community Theatre's A Passion for Kendal took place. My children and I were cast as non-speaking disciples but we appeared at the fringe of several scenes. If you check the official blog you can see if you can spot us!
I rarely publish my children's faces on here but I wanted to share some photographs of us as a family of amateur thespians:

Reasons to be Cheerful XXXV ( #R2BC )
Another week and another set of reasons to smile!
1) Happy Birthday Granny!
My granny was 95 today!! The children and I visited her with a pile of birthday cards and mini birthday cake. Her main celebration is next week with all her sons, 3 daughters-in-law, 2 of her 7 grandchildren and 3 of her 8 grandchildren. Today it brought a smile to her face as we rolled up to see her.
2) A Passion for Kendal
After all the months of planning and practising tomorrow is the big day! I have been running the social media for the project over at A Passion for Kendal and as a reward my children and I are playing silent roles as disciples. The town has already had banners put up on the streets and tonight we had our final rehearsal. Here's hoping the weather is as good tomorrow for the real thing:

3) Operation House
Following on from Monday's trip to Ikea I have successfully constructed all the flat pack furniture I bought for the kids' rooms. My son's bedroom is currently really tidy, my daughter's has work still to do! Here are the bits I built:

Toy Review: Moon Sand Pet Shop
Sponsored Post
My children were sent a Moon Sand Pet Shop to try out and review. This is the first time we have ever had any Moon Sand as people had told me horror stories about it! We made good preparations though and I covered the kitchen table in newspaper and made sure the children were well supervised.
The set came with 2 different colours of sand which the children emptied into the container:
My son spread it out and my daughter started to fill in the decorative screens for the pet shop:
