Book Week

Holly had Book Week this week where all the children had to dress up as their favourite character from a book. Holly insisted on catching the bus - Katie was so embarrassed!

Melbourne August 2008

Had a lovely girls weekend in Melbourne with my 'new' friends. Lots of shopping and drinking coffee!

Skiing in Australia August 2008

Hi there once again. We have just returned from our second weekend in the snow - last Sunday to Selwyn and this Sunday Thredbo. It takes about 2 1/2 hours from here so doable in a day which is great - the bonus of living in Canberra for all you snow lovers! It was great to get the skis back on and even better to see the girls getting right back into it - they now ski off together on their own which is fantastic although we just wish Immi was up to going with them!! Talking of Immi, she had her first ski and was actually great - not even 3 and can ski pretty well, just wish she wasn't so strong willed...... enough said. Had visions of Susan and Eric and their time at Thredbo - strangely enough didn't see anyone in flip flops and T shirts though Eric!!! Great snow and you both would have showed the Aussies a thing or 2 over here - maybe one day you can come back! Well miss you all very much, but as you can see we are making the most of the winter (how strange when it should be summer). Saw the first daffodils today.... bizarre x

Life in Jerra August 2008

Hi there, Just thought we would post some photos of our local area. Since we have had Chester to stay, we have discovered some fantastic walks from the house. Went out this afternoon and took the camera - I am turning into a true bush walker! However, I appear to be the only one out there - I am missing something?? Maybe the snakes in summer will put me off, but for now I am enjoying listening to a bit of Ronan and pretending to be David Bailey/Barbara Woodhouse!

KATIE IS 12

Katie had her 12th Birthday last month - thanks for all the cards and presents. Just a few photos of our little party.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MUM AND DAD

Just to wish Mum and Dad a Happy Anniversary from all of us. 44 Years not bad! Miss you very much and really looking forward to seeing you in November - 12 weeks and counting. This photo was taken on the day we left Hereford. Can't believe it has been 6 months. Love Sal, Paul and the girlsxx
