Christmas here we come!

Counting down to Christmas in Tas. Dec 21 - 27th. Can't wait to spend time together. D & J graduate year 10 Dec 10. Julia will be MC'ing the graduation ceremony...what a clever bunny she is. Duncan is missing Claire..... but we wish her a wonderful 9 week adventure in the UK. And look forward to hearing all her news.
Health up-date for Lou....Tablets are working a treat and I almost feel my old self again. Hey feeling old was never in my plan for old age.

Looks like a very good night was had.

Dear Friends

As we remember and celebrate with our dear friends back in the US...Thanksgiving Day. What a wonderful celebration Thanksgiving Days is.
Barb cooking up a storm, games, laughs, family, friends, chilly weather, bright orange pumpkins, autumn leaves, good times shared with wonderful people.
I'm still in wonder how we were so lucky to have met such friendly, welcoming people. Families that welcomed us into their homes from the first day we moved into Woodinville.
So many wonderful memories. One day we will return and revisit Cottage Lake Elementary and see the kids names in the courtyard bricks, our family name on the playground sign, walk down memory lane.

New Beginnings in Australia

There is no better time to make a new start on our family blog. I see 3 years ago I started this blog and now, after a prayer was answered, here we are back in Australia make a new life here in Sydney. Our babies have grown into wonderful teenagers, of which I am very proud. We have two beautiful grand sons, Toby, Rob and Kara's wonderful little man. Along with Henry, Sam and Lu's little poppet, 3 and bit months old. We are so blessed.
