Gracie Lou is on and in the ABC....


We are excitied in our house. Finally, after about 2 (or is it 3?) years of dreaming, hoping and lots of hard work, Daz has done it or we have done it. The first of four Gracie Lou DVD and CD packs have hit the ABC shop! We went in on Saturday to have a look for ourselves, just to believe it. And yes, its true! We are on the shelf next to Hairy Maclary! Third row from the top, second DVD from the right, there we are! Grace was more interested in the Fireman Sam stuff in the store, but Milly was pointing to the DVD going "Gracie Lou! Gracie Lou! Hey thats me!" as she pointed to the Matilda character.

The first of the songs go to air this Tuesday at 8.25am. We'll be watching and hope you do to! Its going to feel so surreal! My aim with this project was just to have it on ABC Kids, thats what I thought would be fantastic. Daz agrees but he's already got the wheels in motion for series 2. The man is amazing, I am so proud of him and happy for him too, Tuesday is going to be fantastic!
