Thrills, Bills & Bellyaches...

What a busy weekend.

Florence's birthday party was held at the local school rooms - and was pretty darn good. Tasha worked very hard and it really paid off. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and Granny came (who was a star). Took loads of video which we watched on Sunday, some very emotional stuff (mainly with Nate being grown up and cute) Florence had done the normal ballet thing in the morning so was really tired by the time bedtime came.

Tasha & I went to the Mellows Bretby Dinner Dance on the evening - great food and plenty on chatting to good friends.

Sunday saw Florence going to another party, everyone suffering with tummy aches in the evening. Small tummies can only take so many sausage rolls I guess!!

Watched the feature length documentary on the Star Wars Bonus DVD last night. I'd not realised just how many pies George Lucas' companies are in, and how much outside work they'd done. Terminator, Titanic, Lord of the rings etc etc as well as him actually developing Pixar, then selling it off. Also not realised that he'd made most of the movies completely independently and had started the merchandising associated with movies. Wouldn't mind being a penny behind him!
