Teeth or the lack of

Xavier lost 4 teeth in two weeks. One while we were away and then three in quick succession when we got home and school started. He looks awesome haha!

School goes back 2015

School has begun.
Seth has the same teacher as last year. He is happy with that.
Xavier has a different teacher. We're hoping for another good year.
They went smiling on the first day...that's always good.
I don't really want to talk about school - we'll just post nice photos of our handsome boys instead.

Marcoola

We spent 7 glorious and very warm days with our fabulous friends right near the beautiful Marcoola beach. There was much laughter, coffee, delicious food, beach time, markets and just time together. Just the way I like it. Why do beach holidays go so fast? Time to plan another?

Road Trip

After SS finished we got in the car and drove about 7 hours to Kempsey. We stayed overnight there then got up before 6 - yes before 6am - and drove to Brisbane. It was worth it cause we got to have lunch at the Hanna's - yay!
Below is a photo of us stopping at the Macadamia Castle along the way. The expression on Xavi's face about sums up our experience of the Macadamia Castle.
After lunch with the Hanna's we spent 3 nights in Caloundra. Swimming, going to the beach, swimming and reading. We also found some markets on the Sunday morning. I guess that's what people do when they don't go to church. It was a nice for a change. We ate mini pancakes and drank over priced but delicious iced tea.

Summer School 2015

2015 saw us return to Summer School. The boys had a blast at their programs and we pretended we were grown ups and sat inside - I know *gasp*!
We had the joy of staying in the most gorgeous little house and sharing meals with some lovely friends.
It was a great week (despite Bert and I both being sick at different points) and we will be back!

Christmas 2014

Another Christmas has come and gone. We had a good time celebrating with family and friends. My prayer is that in amongst all the food, presents, celebrations and busyness that the boys have a real understanding of the importance of why we celebrate Christmas. They came to Christmas Eve and Christmas Day church for the first time - that's got to help!

Christmas Eve begins with brunch with the Humphreys, Baileys and the Gillies and the compulsory kid photo



Other Christmas gems...
