Wedding No.2






We had another family wedding the other day. The ceremony was held at Thalassus Park with a very cool lookout. Andrew wasn't nervous and Brooke looked lovely. This makes for a good wedding. The kids were good except for the running around and Alicia had to go to the toilet as soon as the ceremony started. Typical. Thank god for flower gardens and retaining walls. The reception was at their house, where we partook in daiquiri's and chardonnay. Mum was plastered literally by about 6.30. We never saw her, because she was too busy mingling. I was gonna ring and find out how she faired the next day but I was too scared. ha ha ha. I think she might slow down for a couple of weeks, that was the second time in 5 days that she has drunk too much. She had a good time anyway.

The ensuite is almost finished

Praise the Lord....The ensuite is basically finished. All I need is a soap dish and shelf installed. We have both of these items but have been a little confused as to where they should live in the shower. However, we are using the ensuite as we should. It is absolute bliss. Considering we have never had a separate shower, only a shower/bath. It is huge and more than one person can fit, don't ask me how I know this. I will give Brad about 2 weeks before he starts to demolish the main bathroom, so if we thought 4 people using the main bathroom was messy, imagine the ensuite with 4. I'll have to come up with new rules.

Who bought a bike

Who bought a bike? Well, that would be me. I bought a push bike and helmet for under $100. That is impressive. It will be the first bike I have ever bought. I usually had hand me downs and I can only really remember owning 2 other bikes. The bike was put together by Brad but hasn't been ridden yet because he has to adjust the brakes. Basically there aren't any brakes (or was that done on purpose????) Anyway, I'm another step closer to being fit. I just have to use it now.

Ewans explanations

Tonight I walked past the bathroom whilst the kids were in the bath and I heard Ewan tell Alicia that they came out of mummys belly. Now this conversation started because Ewan and I were discussing his college and I was explaining when and where the picture was. Of course there is a picture of me very pregnant, so I said, that he was in my tummy.
Its funny what they pick up on. He obviously thought it was news enough to tell Alicia. I don't think she was too interested but Ewan was adamant she should know. He's such a big brother.

Chelsea turned 8



Yes, you read correctly. Chelsea is now 8 and not too happy about how much homework she is getting from school. We went over there last night for a beautiful, huge tea. Roast with all the trimmings. Susy did a marvelous job. And to top off the evening, we hardly saw the kids all night, they were too busy playing. Happy Birthday Chels
