CHANCES ARE ...........



...if it's hot during the day you will find me and my children at home with the air condition on

....if it's 6.30pm we will be walking towards our local beach for a swim or two ;)

....if we run out of milk, my eldest (9years) will be more than happy to go and buy from our corner local store which is 2 blocks away / 10 minute trip by walk

.....if it's 10p.m. we will be on our way back from the beach

.....if the kettle is on than my hubby is home

.....if you go in the kids room there will always be something built / blocks or dress up clothes in the middle

.....if it's hot and humid I will always be there ready to complain :)

.....if the house is quiet this means that we are not there

......if it's 5.30p.m. the kids are gathering all our beach towels drinks etc...... in preparation for beach

.....if you have enjoyed this, then why don't you play along too and link your self with http://www.thisfamilyof4.blogspot.com/2009/07/chances-are.html

PICKY EATERS .....




..... how many different menus do you prepare for supper? Why is it that there is always someone at the table who will complain, doesn't want to eat or simply tells you "I don't like this" (without even tasting it first)? Now I have had my share with picky eaters and finding a solution is not easy. Experts tell you bribery does not work but it will backlash. How do you my dear bloggy friends handle picky eaters, if you have any that is ??

TAG...



I have been tagged. The rule is to post the sixth photo from the sixth folder, tell the story behind it and tag 5 friends. Well this photo was taken last week whilst my family and I were in Gozo. Photo of a game of Rummikub between me and hubby taken early in the morning whilst kids were still asleep.

I will pass this on to only 3 friends (as my other two Ivy and Mary have been tagged by Isabel):

Hello friends, we are back. Back from a few days away from Malta. We spent the last five days in a tranquil farmhouse in Gozo. It was brilliant!! We had lots of family time, got to do some historical outings along with some good food and great company. Here's a collage showing some of the things we were up to.
