Visitors

We had visitors from the UK for 5 days. However, this is the only photo I took... The kids loved having Izzy and Wyn stay with them. Though, after Bronte yelled out "see you soon" as they were driving to the airport, she whispered to me "we are not really going to see them soon, are we? because they live so far away. Maybe someday". Swedish crew - I credit you for long distance understanding.

hungry hippo

We have released the hungry hippo into the house - thinking that Zach may now be old enough not to eat the balls. Which is true. But he is not too old to throw them off the deck...

Thanks Nat!

Thank you Nat for the early 4.5 present. It has been a BIG winner - this was the first picture, but many more (and much better) ones have been stuck and drawn.

Just around the corner...

This was KB's baby shower one week before she was having bub. Although we didn't know it at the time, the beautiful Millie was hiding in there. It was great to catch up with a few other of the frisbee mums and mums to be.

Hey Presto

It was time for Sila's party - and she had an awesome magician. But topping the magician's jokes was the reaction from two of Bronte's friends - Olivia and Audrey - who looked at each other and cackled Benny Hill style after each joke.

Jam face

Berry pancakes with Jam. A big hit for Mr Sweet Tooth.

Afternoon entertainment

The plan was to take Ava and Finn to the park so that renovations could be done. But Zach had given Finn conjunctivitis, and then in my enthusiasm for a bare-footed race, Ava received a prickle. Excellent baby sitting on my behalf... but still a nice park play.

Winter water play

Yes - it is winter. I love winter in Brisbane. This was combining hosing the garden with entertaining the children. Most photos were not for general consumption - including the moment of Zach imitating his sister's bush wee style.

Time for a haircut...

Family golf arvo

While dad and Sean played the game with sticks and balls, the rest of the family got to drive the cart. One of those afternoons where you remember just how lucky you are to living in such a gorgeous spot.
