Dear Tooth Fairy

Today I had my first day at school

and I lost my first tooth.....

The tooth will be in a small box with a green lid under my pillow.

I have brushed it twice every day so my mum says that it should be worth quite a bit.

Lots of love

SAM

It's a bit breezy down here

TCM came home from the school run
(and yes! we can call it that now)
to find an interesting sight on the back lawn.....

Looks like those blocks of wood didn't quite hold the base....

Well at least it didn't fly over the fence again!!

School Girl Sam

Not too many sleeps left now until the BIG DAY......

Uniform all ready to go

I wonder what fairisam will do next after that???

Gingerbread Men

Today Kimberley and Katelyn came over to play

so we decorated some gingerbread men.......

The finshed products......

And the judges decision is final.....

Excellent weather for ducks.....

....and for Harricane's new raincoat!!!

pity he splashed water into his gumboots

Thank you uncle Nathan for the great birthday present.

Plenty of opportunity to use it at the moment......
