The VT Boys like Angry Birds

The VT Boys lately have to deal with a lot of Angry Birds, we play Angry Birds on the iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad, Macs and now we play it for real with handmade Angry Birds made by VT Girls career who is very clever. You can say what you like but playing Angry Birds for real is fun. (see pictures below)
We also had time to build some tower from wooden blocks and we are alway creative with them. We have also been playing on the PS3 trying to set new records in Grand Tourismo 4.

For tea we had Chips, beans and Fish which was lovely, we had a nice drive back home and we have been playing loud music in the car.

The VT Boys making Swiss Rolls

The VT Boys last weekend have been making Swiss Rolls and with great success (well it was not such success after all) but we did our best and we happy that half of it turned out to be great.
The tricky bit is to choice the right tools and ingredients  - which we did sort of. We said how easy it was to make them and how quick, much quicker than biscuits or cake. Anyway see the pictures as proof that we made them.
We also had time to check out the latest games on the PS3, even Mr.Mac had a go on it. Mr.Biscuits is still very happy with his laptop and putting more and more stuff on it to improve the overall workings of it. Mr.Garfield is very happy on the moment, as all his exams are finished for now.

Mr.Mac Jr is also doing well with his new job, and soon he will be looking for his own place somewhere in Norfolk so he can be closer to work. In the evening we had Sweet and Sour Chicken with rice and some Ice cream for afters.

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)
