The Magic Fairy Princess Shows

On Friday on the bus home from school, Amber declared that it was time to visit Prague again. So we booked bus tickets and planned an outing on the Sunday. I had seen a big toy shop near my head office in the centre, so persuaded Colin to have a kids day buying toys.

We trawled the 3 floors in search of toys - some good healthy brain food toys. We actually did remarkably well with puzzles and books being in high demand by the babies. On the last floor we discovered the costume section. Now, one thing I must explain, is that the babies have been fed all kinds of halloween propoganda at the school and have great expectations for this amazing halloween thing when you go out at night and eveyone has fancy costumes and there are witches and bats flying around (and of course trick-or-treating to be had)... So, Colin saw these wonderful halloween masks with scary faces and fancy hats and suggested that the girls buy halloween masks. The problem being that the ugly masks were right next to the most beautiful, fairy and princess costumes. Ummmm, now which one would you pick? Well, Colin had no contest and was very dismayed that we walked out with fairy dresses instead....


So, we get home and the fairies came out to play. I had to be the audience and then I was sung to; danced around; magic showed; abracadabrad and generally all-fairy-showed-out! (Including my memory card on the camera).

For the whole of the next week, the costumes went to school (for halloween week) and they were princesses by day; and fairies by night.
