The VT Boys like biscuits

Today the VT Boys have been busy making biscuits, we made all sorts and we had great fun in the kitchen, the whole family had to sample the biscuits, and Mr.Garfield and Mr Biscuits also toke some home in the evening. Our lunch was very nice as we made Steak wraps with mayo and lettuce.


We also have been spending time playing with VT Girl No.3, building, puzzling and playing with lego, for the rest we have been taking it easy, by playing some games on the iPad and laptop. For dinner we had sweet and sourer chicken with rice.

The VT Boys have been drawing

Last weekend the VT Boys have been creative and have made some drawings, not on the computer but with proper pencils and paper. The first drawing we had to make was a car, the second faces and the last assignment was draw a iPhone, we all had great fun and we differently will do this again.
The VT Boys also had a sleep over as it was Mr.Mac's birthday the following Tuesday, so we had plenty of time to play with all the computers in the house, and we found some time to clean the car. Dinner was lovely as we had lasagne which of course is Mr. Garfield favourite meal, with Cheese cake for afters.
In the evening Mr Garfield and Mr Mac spend some time together talking about all sorts of stuff, instead of watching a film what we normally do. We also have spend some time listing to some music and Supertramp (Breakfast in America) is a great album.

The VT Boys are technical

This weekend the VT Boys have been playing with computers, Mr.Garfield have been showing his new PlayStation 3 with all the latest games. GT5 is one of the best games available for the PS3, graphics really good and the sound was very realistic.
However Mr.Biscuits was setting up his new HP Laptop, with Windows XP Professional (Black Edition) and all the software he needs. This will also give him the opportunity to Sync up his iPod Nano and play all the music he likes.
We also had time to play with the VT Girls, play with the lego and wooden bricks. For lunch we had Bacon butties lots of it and for dinner we had Fish and Chips from the chip shop. See picture below VT Girl No.3 was given a Pingu by Mr.Biscuits, which was a very nice thing for him to do. Hopefully next week the VT Boys come over for a sleep over, which would be great fun.

The VT Boys are starting the New Year

This weekend The VT Boys have been taken it easy, after a busy 2010 doing all sorts of things we relaxed in the comfort of our home. For lunch we had lovely oven baked Pannini's with Ham, Cheese and red onion's. 

Mr.Biscuits was trying to get Minecraft working on his virtual machine, but it was not playing ball. Mr.Garfield has been playing Mirror's Edge on the iPad - absolutely a great game. We also installed a new game on the iPad yesterday (Rage) a very intense game, but very good graphics (I believe Mr.Garfield explained to me, this is a Rail motion game)
Mr.Biscuits also gave Mr.Mac his Christmas present (A iPhone Hard protection cover) which he was very pleased with. Of course this weekend Mr.Biscuits had some biscuits, and lots of drinks. Mr.Garfield is going to get his Sony Playstation 3, so he can play even more beautiful games and Blu-Ray movies on his super duper new HD Screen.
In the afternoon we watched IP Man via the Apple TV (Great film) this film was completely in Chinese spoken language with no subtitles but we had no problem understanding what the film was about. This is the story of Ip Man, a legendary Wing Chun Kung Fu master from Fo Shan, China. The film is set in Japanese occupied Fo Shan following Japan's invasion of China during World War II. It recounts specifically one man's opposition the occupying Japanese forces.

For dinner we had Fish, baked beans and mashed potatoes and ice-cream for afters, next week we are going to make pancakes, on request from Mr.Biscuits.

The VT Boys had a double whammy

The VT Boys had a double whammy over the Christmas holidays, and spend New Years Eve together, all the VT Boys (all but one Mr.Mac Jr. was spending it with friends) where together and had a sleep over again, which was great.

As a tradition we watched a film with the whole family (MacGruber) which was very funny, so it was 12 O Clock and the New Year had started, we had a big family hug and Mr Mac. was busy cocking Steak and Bread, another tradition we follow every year. This new year the Mr Garfield and Mr. Biscuits had two little present given to them, Mr.Mac made them two T Shirts with there own individual designs, they loved it.
We all wend late to bed, only to be woken up very early by VT Girl no.3, never mind we knew that it would happen anyway. We spend some time on the XBox 360, made some Sausage rolls and had lovely lasagna for lunch. We know that this year is going to be even better for all of us, because we know that our Father is looking after us all the time.

Mr Garfield still sleeping (7:30am in the morning)


The VT Boys had a great Christmas Together

The VT Boys had a great Christmas together, with lots of fun and games of course. They already had their presents, Mr Biscuits had some extra to unpack, 3 DVDs all about planets and make your own Solar System kit, he promised the next time he is here to visit he will show some pictures of it when it is finished.
Also Mr.Mac was given a Apple TV from Father Christmas and he is very happy with it, so are the other VT Boys because they can watch You Tube, Films and listen to Music on the big TV, absolutely great.

We had for Christmas a traditional Dutch dish (Boerenkool met Worst) and ice cream for afters, yummy. We had lots to eat and to drink, also one of our favorite things we like to do.
The VT Boys also had a sleep over, but sleeping is a luxury because VT Girl no.3 always wakes up very early, however it was not to bad this time (7:30am). We had lots of fun and we watched Karate Kid on the Apple VT which we all liked very much.

The VT Boys love each-other

The VT Boys love spending time together, we do all sorts of things, we like making stuff, playing games and cook lots of food. Over the last few weekends we have spent most indoors because the weather wasn't that great or we just like to spend our time playing games.
The Boys showing off the Sausage rolls
We also have made some sausage-rolls last weekend, a whole bag full, so they can be shared with others, also Mr.Garfield is been showing off his skills at several new video games, Half-Life2, Assessing Creed and the new Black Ops game. Mr.Biscuits has been busy making new virtual machines and turning them in to other machines, with customised skins.
The VT Boys in action
Also Mr.Mac Junior turned up for a weekend spending time with us just to relax a bit after working a busy week at his job at Norwich, he is also spending more time out the office, doing installations onsite. He is very happy with his new job, and is been given a permanent contract.
Mr Garfield happy
This week started the christmas holidays and next week we have Christmas, it has been snowing now for two weeks and it looks like we are getting more. Maybe now is the time we need to remember what Christmas is all about, it is not just for getting presents it is to remember the birth of the son of our father, he must be really proud, Like I am of all my children.
We love each-other
