Kate and her new bike!


Kate got a new bike for Christmas which she just loves. During the holidays she learnt to ride without the training wheels at Tomato Lake. Yay for Kate - there's no stopping her now!

Cockatoo Island WA

Phil has been working on Cockatoo Island for the past six months operating diggers mainly and a few other types of machinery. He's away for two weeks at a time, home for one. He flies from Perth to Broome and then onto the island. It takes him all day to get home due to the flight times which is a bummer as he's come off night shift and is knackered by the time he gets to see the girls.



Here's some pics from the island!


Ella starts KINDY!

1st February 2007
Ella was adamant she wasn't going! For weeks we had talked about when she would start, what she would wear, who her teacher would be and all the fun things she would do there! But it didn't make a single bit of difference. On the first big day (well afternoon in our case) Ella was still NOT going! Her little friend Elissa was at our house for the day and we talked all morning about Ella going to Kindy that afternoon. Finally she agreed to go - on the condition she had ice cream for lunch! Hey, anything to get her there right?

Well we had lunch, got her dressed, and set off. No tears at all. I was pleasantly surprised. She had an absolute ball and hasn't looked back since!

I took this photo of her & Elissa just before we went!

Ella Turns 4 !!!

Our littlest girl was four on the 10th Feb. She's still petite but very cute! Like most little girls, Ella loves to dress up! And thought she was in heaven when she recieved 3 dress-up dresses for her birthday! What a lovely day!

This one was from Nana & Grandad in NZ!
A beautiful pink twelve dancing princesses dress was unwrapt at her party at Kidz Paradise. It was from her little & big friends Elissa & Kayley, and Deb & Shane!

And last but not least was a purple one with wings. Just lovely, from Jessica & Jack, Jeanie and Vinnie!That night we went to stay at the Bennetts (Elissa, Kayley & Co) Ella had the choice between that or going swimming for the arvo. The Bennetts will win hands down everytime I think. This is the BIG sleepover!




Amie is the BIG 19


Another birthday in our household was on the 15th Feb. Amie *sigh* was 19! Eeeek! Now that makes us feel old! Where oh where did the time go?
