Weekly Winners 1 2010

Happy New year ...we're back.


We've had a busy few weeks .It's good to be back I missed my broadband internet home.
What have we been up to ?
We traveled to 1100kms to Queensland to visit family .... and the new puppies.KirraLayla

It was a long day traveling in one hit but boys handled it well both days.

Whilst there ...we met interesting creatures in the wild ...

(The same huge Goanna enjoying the concrete near BBQ facilities)
on a little bush walk.

We played in water and chilled...
We went to see the dolphins at Tin Can bay too but the queue to feed them was hundred people long so we watched instead. I couldn't get any good shots due to the crowds.

We heard it had rained in drought ravaged NSW. It was welcome relief that the dams on my FIL's farm were full. The creeks had flowed too ...and taken out the flood fence gates.


The Toolman had spent 3 days before Christmas on the tractor helping his Dad and the bulldozer man 'build' a new dam because rain was predicted.

So we cut short our Queensland roadtrip by a day and headed south well in a different direction ~ 1000kms central Western NSW to the farm to check it out.
A cousin called en route to say the ute was bogged on a back paddock track ...errr then the tractor was stuck in the mud too in the process of getting it out. He said he would be back tomorrow to 'help'.

The next day the tractor got unbogged , then re got stuck in the mud again , another vehicle helping got bogged but unstuck itself , the tractor was unbogged and any further attempt to unbog the ute were abandoned for the day.

The next day we got lucky and unstuck the ute , though the other farm vehicle got bogged
and had to be tractored out and then the finally the ute.

The small boys, the teen and his GF had a lot of fun. They caught yabbies in the spring dam and

maybe a hundred tadpoles in the overflow.

They played with sticks & stones
(why did I buy toys for Christmas ?)

They love the farm and had so much fun.

Back home it didn't take long for mischief to be had.

(yes Twin 2 [not shown] tipped half a bottle of tomato sauce on his brother's lunch)

PS I hope the small boys don't lose their love of opening and closing gates ...they have almost got the hang of it =)....

Weekly Winners 47 2009

Nov 29th - Dec 5th
After surviving NaBloPomo I needed a few days off.

We've had a busy week . I couldn't show you all 288 of the happy & sad snaps we took. Here are just a few.

We said goodbye to our dear Patchy, @13 yrs he had a lot of pain from arthritis and has lately been nipping & snapping at the littles.
We have owned him since he was about 5 weeks old.He was Teen's Christmas pressie.
We had our first stage performance @ the preschool Christmas concert.
It was so hard to get a position to take decent photos. I had to ask them to put them next to each other ...then in the next song a little girl was placed between them.

Wonder what this is
The highlight was a visit from Santa bearing lollies & a book from teachers (we still paid for them :)

Mr 3 loves the hair gel ...a LOT !

We headed away to a beachside caravan park for a few days with our teen, his GF and the littles. We got to visit our friends Tiff, Noah , Ivy & their gorgeous Gran.
Found this sign on an old caravan painted flowery & hippy style.
We went to the Mardi Gras .The boys loved the historic Entrance Carousel .It's been a fixture of The Entrance foreshore since the 1930's. Initially it was horse driven with pipe organ music , then steam now it has a motor with a CD player.


We had to wait a few rounds to get the only, two of the, motorbikes on this ride.


The jumping castle slide was a hoot !

I took 60 secs to go to toilet and came back to this ... mmm MILO !

Santa came rode the Caravan park on his Honda Goldwing.

The Mardi Gras has a fireworks finale ...
We all know how much bangs are ;)

Weekly Winners 46 2009

Nov 22nd - 28th
We have had a hot week and we stayed indoors a lot.

While the boys tipped out all the duplo (most of which we've had for 15yrs)

Tower competitions

Hmm what did I do wrong ...

Our favourite thing was going to see ...
The Man in red's Arrival at Mall via the Clydedales & Carriage

Free & Quick Santa Pic

Scottish Bagpipers & Drummers

The boys enjoyed a few hours at the beach and loved being little monkeys in our backyard.

Finally we got to take a dip
The boys made friends at the beach

they shared their boogie boards and the other kids the trucks & sand toys

The sky was hazy from a dust storm ? and maybe a little smoke
Finished the week being little monkeys
