2 More sleeps till the big day :-)

Well its been busy busy busy here, but i guess its the
same for everyone! Lewis had a trip to see Santa
at the children's farm with his nursery, then came his nativity
at the local church and then of course his party! Holly
also went on the trip and she had a party at the Toddler group.
In-between times I've been writing/posting cards, making food
lists/shopping, wrapping presents as well as trying to keep
the laundry down and the house tidy Phew!!!! All done now though :-)

Saturday i allowed myself a day off and we all went to
Cadbury World in Bournville. We've been before, but i must say
they've made a lot of improvements and we had a great time!
Here are the cream egg cars.

Here they had to jump on pictures of chocolates that
appeared on the floor and when they did they either unwrapped
or smashed to pieces! If you look in the mirror behind, both Lewis
and Holly are mid-jump in these pictures lol

Sorry if there were no pictures when you guys checked in, i had linked them wrongly *blush*
They should all be working now :-)
Hope you both have a wonderful Christmas!!

Cool! I can see them now. Very sweet pictures. That Cadbury place looks like such fun. It must be a huge museum...And WHO can resist chocolate???? Was the chocolate aroma pervasive every where you went?

Helene said...

LOL Janet, yes it was!!
The main museum is in a separate building, but as soon as you get to the factory tour bit it hits you :-) but thats one hit i readily accept!!
You get to hand fill strawberry creams and write your name in melted chocoate from an icing bag, an art i can tell you!!
I'd love to take you if you ever make it over :-)
