Our Holiday Film

Howdy folks,

just wanted to let you know that Debbie has put together a movie from our trip to Victor this week. Click here to watch it.

(I know I could embed it in the blog, but if you go to Youtube then you can sign in, rate it, favorite it, and subscribe to Debbie's videos.) It's important to rate videos because that gets them onto the first page in the category, which makes them more likely to be viewed by lots of people.

Natalie has something to say

Howdy folks, Natalie has a question to ask. "I think jumping rope will be great. Would you like to sponsor me? I think you might help me to raise money." She is participating in Jump Rope for Heart on Friday, and we thought we'd give you all an opportunity to support the work of the Heart Foundation by sponsoring her. If you would like to pledge a donation before Thursday night, we are happy to pay now and collect during the holidays.

Thank you.

hello?

Hope that you are all having a good week.
So ... anyone out there take any good photos of the weekend?




We were very impressed with ourselves on Sunday for being home by 2pm (that NEVER happens) and it was lovely to wake up Monday and really feel at home (with no unpacking to do). The kids and I went swimming Monday and mostly managed to give Stuart some 'space'. Yesterday Natalie had a friend from school over and today we are hoping to get a trip to the beach in (as long as the weather is nice) . Thinking of heading out to Point Lowly tomorrow to commemorate the 26th and then back to the pool on Friday. All in all should be a good week. Having Bible study here tonight (We can FINALLY finish reading through 1 Peter. Has only taken over 7 weeks - yes there are only 5 chapters! Oh well, been good).
Oooooo, the sun just came out, that's nice. Maybe it will be a nice day at the beach after all. Back up plan is to rug up and go fly a kite somewhere.

Love and hugs to all. And look forward to seeing all those wonderful, fabulous photos. ;)

Rising up . . .

Anyone else want a shot at the title? Dave came over last night, and we had some fun throwing punches. I've almost got a black eye, but it just looks like a5mm of black eyeliner at the corner of my eye, so that is pretty disappointing. I'll have to try again later in the week.

I got a few good punches in, but Dave clobbered my more than I clobbered him. I blame my parents - after all, they're responsible for my short stubby arms, aren't they?
