Bob

T'was Book Character Day today in Owen's class. Very conveniently, a friend of Grandma's dropped into her house on Wednesday with a few bags of toys (Grandmas can never have too many toys - only Mums can:) including a Bob the Builder belt full of tools. Would you believe we had already decided to send Owen to school dressed as Bob on Thursday (minus the supply of tools) , so the timing was impeccable! And thanks Aunty Jen for the loan of Bob book ! Not a cent spent and doesn't our builder look smashing (loads more tools behind too)!

We added a bit of grub to the cheeks ... there finished! - (under normal circumstances that 'grub' appearance needs no assistance - somehow just appears there naturally:)

And for the record ... there was a Slinky Malinky, Jack (from the house that Jack built), Snow White, a Fox (from Hattie and the Fox?) A Rabbit (?) a Cat in the Hat and Owen's teacher dressed up as Little Red Riding Hood.... Lots of fun and laughs!

The kids each had to parade before the parents - I even scored a very passionate kiss from Bob:)
