2016

It really is the season… despite the 40 degree weekend weather, the boys made sure we put this up… They did nearly all the work so it’s good to see them enjoy it 🙂 And I’ve almost never seen them all together in a pic so well! Bring on the season… Share this:TwitterFacebookEmailLike this:Like Loading...

A wonderful day for Alex

Happy birthday to Alex! The big 10 today! Alex had such a wonderful day today, from getting his big car book and his beloved Volvo 940 model this morning, to a surprise party at school with a cake and his classmates (and a beautiful card from his younger brother’s class). Then after school he received ...

So that was Back to the Future day…

2015

It’s been Back to the Future mania all day online, as every news outlet and company on earth sought to tie into the fact that today, October 21 2015, is the day that Mary McFly jumps to in Back to the Future 2. And it’s ranged from the predictable to the weird to the fun, ...

Big night tonight with the Crooked Mountain concert at the national park. While the concert is just so so (it’s a bit of fun regardless who plays), the real draw for us is running the primary P&C stall, selling glow sticks and any light up stuff on the night. It’s good fun and good fundraising ...

So we’re back home now. We got home on Friday night and had the weekend to readjust and now things are basically back to normal. And it’s kind of hard to make that adjustment… It was only two weeks away, but it’s such a different place to be, and such a different situation to be ...

Melbourne Museum

2014

We spent most of today at Melbourne Museum. It’s probably something we’d have visited anyway, but Lachie took particular interest in the visit when we discovered it had a large dinosaur exhibition. Dinosaurs have become his current fascination recently… A very classy establishment. The dinosaur exhibition is massive and well featured, and the rest of ...

2014

The first big event of our family Melbourne trip was our visit to Inside the Brick, a Lego fun centre in inner-suburban Melbourne. It’s a play centre, build centre and specialist Lego shop and it had something for everyone 🙂 I’ve wanted to visit the place since I read about it earlier this year — ...
