Now to finish off I have to tell you this one

- it is soooooo funny.....

DH and I won these keyrings at Disneyland Hong Kong,

you know those wee tear open raffle things,

when you make a purchase....

Well, we thought, we'll give DGD # 1 her choice,

as the little one is too liitle....

So, Rebekah, aged 3 and three quarters,

studies them very carefully and then says:-

"It'll just have to be Mickey, cos that's

a VERY SCARY KOALA" with the emphasis on

very scary koala - I nearly ended myself.....

too funny....LOL

She hasn't seen the movie Lilo & Stitch yet....

Thanks again for dropping in dear blogging friends.....
