Noah starts school!

Noah started school at the beginning of the school year. They start in Kindy which is the same as new entrant in NZ. Everyone starts at the same time - they are very social here and we do lots with the other parents in our class and the other three classes in Kindy. Noah has had a great year and you will see in later posts he won an award!!! at the end of year presentation night!

Rascals comes to stay!

Noah was lucky enough to bring Rascal home for the weekend from school. Noah had a busy time as Rascal wanted to fish, surf and try out jumping on the trampoline!

Jo visits!

We were lucky to have Jo visit earlier in the year - we had a lovely time eating out and shopping - this was the first of two visits from Jo.

Happy 10th Birthday Molly!

Molly had her party at Build a Bear in Bondi Junction - it is a super cool space - the kids pick a skin (body) for their chosen soft toy then they stuff it and pick from a huge range of clothes an outfit for their bear or similar then they proceed to name the bear. Molly had a lovely time and do did her friends.

I'm Back!

Sorry for the big delay in posting - all I can say is busy busy! But here we go again!!

Work Conference!

This year Andy's conference was in Sydney which was great also having Granny and Pa here to watch the kids was lovely. We had some beautiful meals - one night we had to dress up 1920's and got delivered to the restaurant in old Mercedes! So many people stopped to stare at the twenty odd cars!!!! Another night we went on this amazing boat and toured the harbour all night - it was truly amazing.

Granny and Pa arrive!! followed closely by Libby and family!!!!

Granny and pa came to visit for two weeks and also martin, Jo and Libby from Perth joined us for a week. it was lovely to catch up with everyone and show them Sydney they have heard about. Libby was lovely and the kids loved having here here with us. she certainly loved the pool, and even Granny got in - not surprising on a 44c day though - boy was it hot!!!!!
