Summer

Back in December we had a day on Puffing Billy with the Kleingeld clan. Great day.

Don't mess with this crew
They were supposed to sleep in the tent but it got 'too cold'.... I suspect one or two got spooked and it became contagious.
Ended up watching a movie until late. Might be the last time Michelle gets to sleep on the couch when Ben has a sleep over.

Had a few days down at Bear Gully with Amrit and kids, a nice campground near Wilsons prom.
Bens headlight Christmas present from Grandma and Grandpa came in handy for reading in the caravan after dark.

Managed to get away for a few more days down the beach but forgot to take a camera....
You just have to trust us it was beautiful weather and a great time.

Michelles first day of High School. Rachel starts Monday so she was still in her PJs...


For our anniversary this year we sent the kids to Oma and Opa and went camping at the beach. Aside from the usual dress up and dinner (on the beach this time) we got to snorkel, kayak, walk, bodyboard and relax...

Despite the clouds the evening was very warm and still. The change came once we had packed up the next day.
