Done......

An hour in front of the TV and I'm up to date.
Now I can go on holiday and take more photos and maybe I'll be more prompt in uploading them next time.
Maybe......

The dam


The dams are full.
That's right. 100%. Full.
I took a photo just in case I never see it again.
Funnily enough now that it is full 'Lake' Burley Griffin looks less like a lake than it usually does. The large trees and so on floating downstream really make it look like a river in flood.

Sold!



Yep, we sold the house in Sydney.

WOOOOOOTTTTT!!!

The School Disco





The boys went to their first disco. The Mountain Man took them while I stayed home watching grown up TV.


They insisted on posing with their skateboards...


and then hugged each other for a while.

They had a blast but Y6 was a bit traumatised by not being selected by the DJ to win a dance competition.

Young


We drove to Young to pick Cherries!
Yum!


The boys ate as much as they put in the bucket....

but we filled it in the end.


Look at the little guy! I'd go and give him a big squishy hug right now if I wasn't scared of waking him up.

Lennox Head

I love Lennox Head. Every time I go it's a bit busier and a little more chichi. I guess one day it will lose its charm but for now it's still wonderful.


My gorgeous niece came to visit.


We went for coffee.


We went to the beach...

and fished.


The Mountain Man caught a fish (and learnt that if you keep bait in your pocket you don't need to visit the bait bucket so often).....


and enjoyed the signage at the local gym.


We built sandcastles.

Dad took us out fishing on a boat.




Dino Boy caught a Bream...


and Y6 caught a flathead.
Later we ate them.


We had a wonderful time. The boys went to the bakery with their Aunt almost every morning. I would have taken photos but I was too busy sleeping in. My sister rocks!!


The boys were worn out by end of the week.

Another birthday.

Graciousness is 13.
A teenager!


We celebrated with cake. She was very enthusiastic.

Dress-up day

They had international dress-up day at pre-school.


Of course DinoBoy had an outfit ready for just such an occasion.
No idea what's up with that pose.

Happy Birthday Y6.

Mr Y turned 6. That's pretty grown up.


We bought a cake and the mountain man decorated it.


The Mountain Man also makes a pretty handy ladder.


T-Rex was meant to be Dino Boy's consolation prize but Y6 adopted him.


Mmmmmm cake!!!

Playing catch up again......

I keep meaning blog more but I keep finding other stuff to do and now I'm miles behind....
I'm going away for 2 weeks soon so if I don't do it now I'll be even further behind.

I guess that I'll do about 6 posts tonight and then I won't bother again for another 4 months or so
