Carnival weekend

This weekend was carnival weekend and saturday saw us wrapping up warm to watch the proccession go by. Thi girls loved it, Emily remembered last years and was excited about seeing the carnival princesses etc, for lucy it was her first time (well first time that she will remember) so she was very unsure as to what would happen. i explained there would be lots of princesses there and people banging drums (more to prepare her really).

apologies for the quality of the pictures but you get the idea!

In the beginning she was very weary and i thought i was going to have to carry her for the duration, then i gave her a bag of 2ps and she was away! she was putting money into anyones bucket that came past. when people said thank you, she would churp up "nat alright". honestly it was hilarious, thas shy child was waving at people, even a lady in an army truck, she said hello and she said hello back! so funny. she just loved it!

 Notice how Emily is in the buggy and lucy is walking! Also notice the hat Lucy is wearing.... latest crochet achievement!!! photos on another blog post when i have made one for Emily too!!
