The beach

We have had a little sneak preview of summer with a week or so of warm weather here in Hobart town.
Its been soooo nice to wander down with the littlies and relax on the beach while they play. Although it was windy on this particular day it was still warm enough to enjoy.
Gonna love Summer

We love Kenneth Cope :)

This was a wonderful and exciting blessing for our family.
Our Bishop asked me if we would host Kenneth Cope in our home the night he came to Hobart.
We coudnt quite believe it was true but during his visit we all felt very blessed to have had the opportunity.
Kenneth presented a most beautifully uplifting and Spirit filled musical fireside at the Stake centre.I am sure all who attended felt of his love for the Saviour and of his desire to let us all know how much we are loved.
He is a talented and humble man whose dedication to the Lords work is an inspiration.
We reeally enjoyed the time we had to talk with him and get to know him a little.
We will always be grateful to have met him and wish him and his family many abundant blessings in this life and the next.

ps. Fletch suggested i call this post "we attract celebrities " hehe

Sydney/ Girls just wanna have fun ! :)

a weekend away ...just me and my bootiful Sis.
we loved it!
everything went sooo perfectly.
we loooved our hotel,Sebel Pier One in the Rocks.
we shopped at the rocks market
lapped up the bliss of the harbour
and had dinner at the rocks overlooking the opera house.
saw heaps of divine wedding dresses and happy brides having their photos under the bridge etc
and finished off the perfect day with a night at the theatre seeing "Wicked" which we looooved !!
:)
aahh....good ole Sydney town is a beautiful getaway!
totally recommend it and we cant wait for our next trip ...soemwhere..(we have decided its a good tradition to have :)

The new screen

well half of it :)
our attempt at a back yard blitz!

And he's off !

A plastic sword managed to get itself stuck in Ammons training wheels ,so when Tone took them off we sold Ammon the big idea that it was way more fun without them.
With a some help from a very kind big brother before school one morning..he was off!

sigh...they grow so fast ...but learning to ride a bike is a great day huh.
