Time to Revise...

So after we reached G- we needed to stop and look back at all the happy friends we made on our adventure... Noah could remember 3 really well-A B & D- Hannah's favourites included A, B C and D- So mommy realised we might need to go and visit E& F&G a bit but first we'll be taking a break to refresh our tired little Explorers
In the meantime....





Mommy played Happy phtotographer to test out the new CS5... loving the new functionality!

G is for Golf...

Green grass, graffiti, grapes and golf (adventure golf that is)is all part of the Greatness in the land of G.
We had our whole family join in on the golfing and dad even won a free Game- Hannah showed some natural talent and
Once mum showed Noah the basic golfer stand He was putting like a Pro!

Fantastic Frogs & fairies!!!!

In the amazing land of F, we've discovered fantastic little fairy Princess and a brave little Noah who ventured in to Froggietopia (eeky for the mommy to experience). We also put cool tatoos on our face & feet and make delicious fruit kebabs!

Adventures in the Lands of C&D!

So over the last 2 weeks we've been to the land of C- full of Clay, Candy, CD's and a Colourful Corner ( thanks Stacey! http://lionheartinourbathtub.blogspot.com/)- what fun-even eating the ice-creams without Cones...


Cockel Shells, caterpillars,Chairs, a Crab, cucumber & carrot
Adventurers@ Colourful Conrner (in Christiaan de Wet road)

Good 'ol D gave us 2 days in Sabie (http://www.lonecreek.co.za/) to visit the Dinosaur park- the kidz had NO idea what to expect so they where extra careful upon entering the park... but by the end of our adventure they could draw and Diplodocus and T-rex! Mum made a special Dinner for the little adventurers. The Drive was long but a delicious meal @ the Azul Spur stop made it all better...

Abby, Noah & Hannah-ready for adventure? (They could be actors right)

In the Words of Noah Ellijah Smith- "mom, this is the best dinner EVER!"

We're ready to Explore Everyday in the land of Electric Eels and Elephants....

B for biscuit...

2nd week of Mommy School and we went on an adventure to the Bokkie Park, Made a Blast experiment, coloured in all the bugs in the garden, and thought of all the balls we could. but the ultimate "B" activity was baking biscuits! what made me a really proud mama bear (that starts with B too) is that they REALLy did these by themselves! Can't wait to C what will happen next week!

Here we go again...

So my Noah & Hannah are "mommy schooling" until the end of the year- Its been an amazingly interesting 2 weeks and made me think of the good 'ol days when this is what mums did.
 We've been having loads of fun and my kidz are learning! Its fabulous heading to a store or watching a TV program with Hannah saying hey mommy thats and "A" or Noah showing me all the letter "B"'s he can find.- Having them apply simple maths in everyday life is so much fun for them- especially when they get it right...

But its been ultimatley rewarding for me...Understanding my children and seeing what potential they have- how they view things... If any mums get a chance to do this-try it start with the ABc's and 123's!

just those moments

there seems to be those moment that make you stop and ponder life, love and everything else. Generally it birthdays, funerals and perhaps Christmas time for some...
I had the opportunity to celebrate my little Hannah-Mia's 4th Birthday recently and had a "moment"...
Life... how different is life for her than it was for me? People say we look alike so are our experiences of life going to be the same?
Love... I can see how much I love my God in Hannah-Mia and how she must stir His heart by just being Hannah-Mia Smith...she does it to me so often...Looking at her also makes me realise how much I love my husband...
Hannah-Mia Smith
Everything else...well you'll have to keep checking back to this blog to find the out the "everything else"...
