Soccer games, grandparents visits, weddings, motorbike rides

Here are the boys getting ready to go and see their beloved Mariners. They are big fans and they love going with Dad for special BOY time.

This photo was taken when Cate popped out to the car for something and came across our camera.  She looks a bit surprised doesn't she?

Grandpa came for a visit before Aunty Cathryns wedding. Here they are having a bit of a giggle.

Here is our beautiful Charli girl at her auntys wedding. She looked so so sweet.

Here is our handsome Bay dressed in his cool vest. He looked so cute on the day. He made friends with his new cousin Luke who is the same age as him and had a great time at the wedding weekend. He didn't want to come home.

Here is Hamish going through the unnatural smile stage. He has a gorgeous smile but ask for one and he does the most silly faces. Oh well.

The happy couple. Cathryn (Jims sister) and her new hubby Steve.  Between them now they have 8 children. 14,12,12,11,9,6,4,2.  Steves wife died two years ago from cancer so it is lovely that they have found each other and can start a new life together.

James looking.......dubious. LOL I think he was going for something else though.

James brother Simon.

And finally the motorbike shots. The wedding was on their farm. They had caravans out on the paddocks that the girl cousins  and boy cousins stayed in. The older ones.  They had a great time. Riding the bikes, chasing frogs, eating whatever they wanted and having a lot of laughs.

Grandpa and Caitlin.

We stayed in this really lovely loft that reminded me of Little house on the prairie.  The kids slept upstairs, we had our own room with ensuite downstairs. There was sausages, bacon, tomatoes, eggs and fresh orange juice for brekky. Plus the bonus at 8AM there was a knock at the door and the hostess had brought some fresh from the oven bread. Mmmmmmmmm it smelled so good, tasted great too. With some homemade strawberry jam and vegemite. But not together. LOL.

We had a fun weekend. Jim go's back to work today after 8 weeks off.  Tomorrow we are getting new carpet laid in the girls room, Hamish's room, the front room and my bedroom, so today there is lots of cleaning, sorting and moving going on. Fun fun fun. I still have two weeks holidays left. I am really enjoying being home with my kids. The house is clean, we are eating healthy meals and I can spend quality time with each child listening to them and seeing areas where they need help from their Mamma. Loving it. I don't want to go back. Until next time.
