We had the pleasure of Brian & Grace & family visiting Australia for a few months and catching up with them a bit. The kids seem to really hit it off.

We had a long weekend down at John and Birgits holiday house at Paradise beach with them.

Michelle & Emma. Michelle bought herself a camera that mainly gets used for self portraits and videos. These two have Gigabytes of themselves.

An afternoon at Warrandyte

Ian & Julie have moved up to the northern NSW coast. Things seem to be going well, they are renting a lovely country property for the moment while they continue looking about to buy.

My cousin Karen married Frank and we were all invited. A bit exciting for the kids (and us too!), going to beautiful traditional church and big Italian reception.

Entree came out and Michelle wasn't quite sure what to make of it. Kind of an awkward pause before the switch was made and the chips and nuggets came out. Although Ben doesn't mind helping out with this sort of thing. Must be the Kleingeld in him.


Ben was monstering his sisters with a sleeping bag over his head. One of them (its disputed who) gave him a shove and he hit the wall on the way down. Its looking a bit better here. Of course it was school photos this week....
