Potted conifers

We just added the pencil conifers in a blue big vase to match the roof of the house.




Ethan in blue pyjamas and blue dressing gown.


The new plant added some character to the house.


View from driveway - plants from left are Lavanders and Birds of Paradise



The green buddha near entrance of driveway.


Instead of garden gnomes, fat happy buddha makes a great garden decor too.




Lazy morning for Ethan..

Krystina the Egyptian girl

Krystina is becoming obsessed about Cleopatra, history of Egypt and Ancient cities.

Her music teacher tagged her as little Egyptian encyclopedia because she would talk anything about Egypt and anything only about Cleopatra almost everyday. She even received a little souvenir as a prize which is made from piece of bambo with Cleopatra painting on it from Ms V.

Even her class teacher and some parent helpers thought she might be the reincarnation of Cleopatra because she wouldn't stop blabbering about Egypt to her classmates, teachers, friends and parents. Every morning on the way to school she'll read books about her favourite goddess, Cleopatra, again and again.

She even requested and chose a design of an Egyptian clothes to be custom made for her.



Posed as Egyptian girl


Excuse the hair, but that was when she just woke up and happily tried the finished
costume.


Sitting in a 'throne'.. and the finished costume, which her mother had been making since 11.30 pm!
