A quick spin

A final scoot and catch up with Ava and Finn while they were up in Brisbane.

At the waterpark

School holidays meant a bigger gang at the water park - with a bunch of the frisbee and offspring hanging out. And yes - it was cold - but swimming was still very much on the cards.

Yay!

Yay! Ava and Finn are up for the holidays.

Disney on ice!

Thanks to a scheduling clash Zoe and Bronte got to go to Disney on ice. It far exceeded my expectations, and the girls just loved it. 

Snow time!

I think this almost exactly what Sweden is like in winter - right? Southbank blew the fake snow and we got to make snowballs and snowmen. Which made me think we had better go see the real thing one day.

Climber

Literally hanging out at the new Tennyson park

Winter beach play

While the mums were away, the dads and kids did play

A close shave

After discovering Zach attempting to shave with the real thing, I bought him "Mr Bubbles" in the US - a pretend shaving kit. Bronte has also had a go, exclaiming "feel my face! it is so smooth!".

Under the sea party

A back to back school party weekend with Laura's 6th birthday celebrations. Check out the awesome cake!

A fairy princess party

Bronte's school girl friends all pinked up for the princess party of Amelie. Although boys were not invited, Zach - having just seen me get off the plane 3 hours earlier - was not going to let me out of sight just yet.
