Rocking,rolling and Roundabouts!

After all the excitement of Batman and birthdays, we thought we would have a quiet week to recover... err, actually no! 

On Wednesday daddy decided to surprise mummy and give her an early christmas present! (get your minds out the gutter people, really!) So he took her to see her favourite bunch of old men that can knock out a half decent tune at the new leeds Arena.

A great venue and a great night was had, Little Leon spent the evening tormenting Grandma & Grandad, who i think have now recovered! It was an all too rare night out for us but we had fun,

Then on Friday night Mummy had arranged a surprise Party for daddy to celebrate his upcoming birthday, Friends and family that came made it a great evening and daddy really appreciated everyone that came and a big thanks to mummy for doing it. I'll cover the birthday more when we reach the big day itself, (26th Dec if you want to send presents etc..... ;-)

Then, as if that wasn't enough, daddy popped out to see another bunch of old blokes he can still knock out a half decent tune. This time in the form of the Band Vardis,

A couple of things made this special, aside from being able to see a band I last saw play live back in 1982 (ish) it was that they were playing at the newly restored Unity hall in Wakefield, the very same venue, I had seen the band at some 30 odd years before. It was also a chance for Daddy to have a natter with and old friend as well. 
 It just goes to show, you're never too old to get the band back together. Hmmmm, I wonder.....

After all that excitement we took Little Leon to York, Leon clapped eyes on a traditional Carousel and decided it was time for him and mummy to go for a ride!

Woohoo, so much excitement, we had to have coffee (and cake of course)  So, Whats next? Oh yes some Little fuss about a bloke in a red suit! Watch this space.....

Night Night All

Little Leon is 4!

Well today Little Leon is 4, We had a party, and what a party it was!

Noel was in charge as usual and dressed suitable for the occasion in his Superbear outfit. This time he was aided and abetted by an even bigger superhero, Batman..

Batman, of course when faced with a room of children did what any superhero would do, Joined in the fun and games, showing some nifty handwork on the parachute game.

Little Leon was a little unsure at first but soon came round and was imparting his super cute ways by the end of Batmans visit.

They say that people make parties, never was truer than today. Leons is so lucky to have so many great friends and family to share his special day with. Family, friends from nursery and his littkle Heart buddies all came together today and great fun was had by all.

Lean's cousin Jasmine did a little magic show, (I shouted Izzy whizzy let's get busy, but I guess the audience was just too young to get that one) Batman was ace, The Cake Moooved everyone to smiles and laughter....

All planned like a military operation of course by Mummy!

Daddy says have you made a list!

Leons has had some ace presents from family who couldn't be there and some lovely gifts from people at the party, and some wonderful donations were made to the CHSF as well.

How big!

Oh Oh! Too big!

As you all know, it;s not been the easiest of 4 years, and at times we didn't even know if we would make this far, but we have, and will be eternally grateful to all that have been there, and continue to be there for us. Life is good at the moment, long may that continue.

Little Leon is in bed dreaming of fighting baddies with Batman and Super Noel, 

So, next stop is Christmas. letters to be written to santa bear and lets see what that brings!

If I don't get chance to post (or basically forget) before Christmas, We wish you all a very happy Christmas and here's to a great 2015.

Love from Don, Helen & most of all Little Leon xxx
