Nan & Papa

The girls had a ball spending time with Nan & Papa and can't wait for their next visit.




The Girls' Adventure in Sydney!

I recently took Marisa and Laura to Sydney to see all of the family. We had a great time catching up with everyone we miss so much and Marisa seemed to get a lot of enjoyment out of meeting everyone.

Mystery Flight Weekend to Adelaide

We finally used the overnight Mystery Flights we won back in December. We only found out where we were going the day before we left. Marisa came with us and Laura stayed with our friends in Toowoomba - the whole family enjoyed their weekends!

Adelaide was great - our fave spots were Glenelg, Semaphore beach and the Barossa.
For all of you Simon and Maggie (The Cook & the Chef) fans out there - this kitchen should look very familiar. It's a lot smaller in real life than it looks on TV.

This is Maggie Beer's "Farm Shop" - it's a beautiful setting with scrumptious food to taste. Well worth a visit if you're ever in the Barossa.


I finally got to see a sunset over the ocean and it was just gorgeous. I know nothing can beat a NSW beach - however, the beaches off the Adelaide Coast have the most spectacular soft white sand I've ever seen.

Happy Birthday Andy!

Here's Andy with Laura and Marisa on his birthday. The "cake" was a self-saucing pudding which looked a bit dodgy but tasted YUMMY!!!

Marisa only has eyes for her big sister.

Our Smiling Girls

She's cute when she smiles!


Laura was very impressed that her new kindy has face paints - what a beautiful design.
