Lego Starwars

Yesterday was..... , yes you guessed another Gala! Preesall & Knott End Gala. After Using the MacDonalds costumes  for the last three galas we decided to have a change and make some different ones, so on Sunday after a family brainstorming session we decided on Lego men. So then was another big decision which ones, the gala theme was superheros, so we picked Superman for Fred and Ewan wanted Darth Vader, sp that just left Molly who settled on Princess Leia.

And so the fun part ( for me anyway)began, making the ostumes, although i have to admit Paul did a lot this time as well.

Thre kitchen has been like a war zone all week, with paints and cardboard and general craft stiff everywhere, its nice to have it back now

The night before, all made and ready to go!

I found a great use for all those ice cube trays i have from making baby meals over the years

Paint mixing trays!

And the winning moment...

First Prize to them all for Childrens Fancy Dress!!!! yayayaay

And when we got to the field we also won Best Overall Fancy Dress!!!!

Molly wanted to sleep with the trophy and acctually i had to prize it off her for the picture and to save arguments i said it can have pride of place on the mantel piece. 

This is the new Princess float for Preesall, everybody seems to be having the multi colored theme this year, but they look great

So bright sat on the stage

.

The end of another busy, but happy week.

Before i close the computer, i have to share these pics from during the week

a trip to the Ducks

We go to the ducks a lot, but this week, they were crazed, Fred was not happy and they were swarming around us, i felt like i was in the Birds, they were pecking at us to to get the bread, we make a sharp exit out of there!

All the making this week meant that i had to set things up for them to get on with, like these trains ad i have to say that for the most part they played really well together for a change, Well done Fred!

Bye xx
