Clary's Adventures

Now it's time to travel back to last year's festive season. I spent time with a few friends, like the Christmas Ballerina,  a friendly elf, Rudolph,  Frosty, Gingerbread Man, Sparkles the Bauble, Ellie the Elf,  and Cookie. I also spent time with friends from LKM Performing Arts. Our annual Christmas party was at Throw Axe in Penrith. My lack of natural coordination paired with an axe was not a good match. I was very excited when my axe finally hit the board. Ash and Amethyst battled it out to discover the winner. (I can't remember who won.) My Christmas morning and the Bravos’ Christmas eve evening was spent on a video call. Addy loved her cash register. Then Mum and I went out for lunch. I don't need to tell you where we went because I can't be bothered to look up the name, and honestly it wasn't that great. We still made the most of it, and enjoyed ourselves. I of course insisted on a little photo shoot… for the blog. Back at home I made us dinner and dessert...

Addy turned 4 in July, but we're travelling back a little further to her 3rd birthday. She was excited to turn 3.  And was super excited when I told her my age (33 at the time) had two 3s. "Wow!" she said. Mum and I helped her celebrate via video call. Addy woke up and was delighted to see all the decorations. She loved the chef apron and hat we bought her. She often wears it when she helps with cooking. She was very keen for the stroller we gave her to be assembled. After trying to help, she collected her blankets and dolls. They were all ready to go to the shop. Addy wore the Elsa outfit we'd bought her for Christmas. At the shops Addy discovered the stroller was perfect for filling with packets of chips... she hadn't paid for. After putting the chips back it was time for her breakfast and my midnight snack - both pink. Then it was time for the cake. She showed off her birthday sign. She also shared her cake with us. The best part was the icing turned her tongue...
