It was Mothers Birthday on Monday, Happy birthday! Your present and card are sat here waiting to see if they can be hand carried back to the UK. I may have to send you a picture of the present as proof!

Dave arrives out here on Friday and Smurf arrives on Tuesday. That means this week is Smurf preparation week!

The Bedroom is ready with new Smurf coloured sheets:

The fridge is getting ready with Smurf friendly drinks. More to come, there is no Mountain Dew in there yet!

The Deck is ready for Smurf Lounging, complete with little drinks tables For the stuff above :)

The big table will be useful for eating all this Smurf fiendly food! You can there are Oreos, Pasta and Snickers. . .


Don't worry Dave, we have "a starter for 10": 2 bottles of Scotch, Cab-Sav and Rioja.


The spare room is ready too. 2 new up lighters, clean floor and wardrobe. The last bit due to the fact that I now have a storage unit to keep all my snowboards/fishing rod/empty boxes/4 snowboard bags (only 1 is mine HONEST!) No pictures of that as it is a tip!

As you can see above I have spent out a bit to make sure all is ready for Smurf. I even shelled out for a microwave and a toaster as well as frozen pizza!

I am done in now, time to crash. I am just a little gutted the snow is not looking to great for the weekend, I really wanted to show Dave what Meadows is like in deeeeeeeeep powder.

Sleep tight one and all :)
