I love baskets. So, having some birthday money to spend (I'm now the grand old age of 37) I spent it on baskets. Aren't they pretty? *sigh* Oh, on the left you can just see the flowers hubs bought me on my birthday.
We are starting to build a dolls house. Here's what we did so far.
The girls chose a pattern from the internet, this one is pink hearts, and we printed off and glued to cardboard to fit into the bottom of a box.
I cut up some suede effect fabric for a carpet and we've cut out a window. We're planning many levels, some stairs, curtains, pictures, etc.
We also visited a local bird sanctuary. I particularly loved the cranes, but the girls loved the flamingos.
This crane (above) was so friendly
Here's a fancy looking crane (above).We had a trip to the cinema too and watched Toy Story 3, it was hilarious, particularly Spanish Buzz.
We hired some videos: Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang, Alvin and the Chipmunks - the Squeakquel, and Sherlock. Nanny McPhee was favourite with the girls and hubs and I loved Sherlock.
So how was your week?

I was hoping for a goat for my lawn. But a neighbor started my mower for me and I did it. Couldn't do anything the next day. I doubt a goat would go in town but I just don't have the oomph or pull in my wrist to start mower.
Happy belated birthday. Glad you had good family time.
God Bless
