Jordy and Daniel

We had a lovely Passover break. We went hiking, met with friends visiting from the UK, and went to see the absolutely delightful "Paddington" at the cinema. We definitely did less than previous years, but the boys are getting older and have their own plans. Our one family day out together, hiking along the coast in northern Israel, was just wonderful. I will organise the photos to show you in another post. In the meantime, here are a couple more customised cards made for some recent birthdays.
Sweet little Jordy was turning two. Her auntie told me that she loves wearing fairy dresses and in fact sent me a photo of the birthday girl wearing this pink and green dress that had once belonged to her big sister. Jordy also enjoys playing with building blocks, and loves the Australian television show Playschool and the Australian children's music group The Wiggles. A few flowers to match the fairy dress, and a big red number 2 finished the card off nicely. 

Daniel was celebrating his ninth birthday. Last year I showed him as a young scientist, with a white coat and test tubes in his pockets. This year Mum revealed that he enjoys basketball, playing the piano, and creating shapes and figures from origami, some of which I integrated into the design of his birthday card. Mum also asked me to show him wearing his favourite grey cap. She later told me that Daniel "loved his card".

The cards are so cute. I didn't know the Wiggles were still going strong. They used to air in the United States (probably still do but the kids in my family are too old now). I'm glad to hear you had a great break. Looking forward to the photos. :)
