Given that Jake and Lily have birthdays just one day apart, a combined party seems like the thing to do. This year it was at Illawong on the 15th.

Blurred child carrying plush bear to woman Cooper is rushing about and into this scene. The picture I wanted is the next one, but Cooper rushed in, as action man! The red shoes are my main present for Lily - red sneakers.

Small child holding almost as large bear, adult in background Lily with her bear. It's almost as tall as she is, and was only $5 extra when buying Jake's Lego set. How could one resist?

Little girl with dark background Lily's movements are quite fast so it's not easy to catch her with a slow digital (i.e. non dSLR) camera. But this time I was lucky.

Boy with big carry bag as a hat Flynn wearing this large bag as a hat. It looks more like a wind sock. The bag came to me with Christmas presents in it. It was a shame to throw out, and turned out to be ideal to bring the bear and Jake's present over. So, Flynn finds another use for it!

Jake and Lily's birthdays were jointly celebrated with a family meal at Illawong. This year was a little bit early, probably due to other activities. Their birthdays are on consecutive days!
