Nice Week end

Hey All,


Had a day up at Rollingstone Creek today, First day with no rain for a while

The Family had a swim.

Will and I cooked Sausages..under our new ARB awning.

Lady swam and Waited..

And our new addition (Chiquita) swam and Waited also (for me to drop a sausage that is)

I'm Back!!!

Another Big Week!

Another Big week this week.

All the kids are Back at school, Including me so that was a good start.

We went for another explore drive up to Ollera Creek today and took some more pics.

Jack had a bit of a fish but not to many bites...


I think 'Lady' really loves to get out and into the bush.


Will is such a Bushy.....As soon as he got there the shoes were off and he was into the creek.



Was a nice little spot....Would not of gotten in there in the KIA though...

Ollera Creek

Went for a drive out to Ollera Creek today for some exploring.

The Kids and I had a lot of Fun!!

A Day With My Son...Will..

Monday saw a day that I wanted to just Play.

Poor old Will never gets to many pics of his own, so we had a few hrs at LolliePops Fun House.


Playing Silly Bugga's


What's That?


Look at Me use my Knife and Fork.


Race me Dad!

Beat Ya!

One day I saw a Dragonfly,
Its vibrant colours caught my eye.
As it was sitting still in fear
While hungry birds were circling near.

Then it hopped and flew
Its spirit was restored like new.
Its rainbow wings buzzed through the air
It danced and played without a care.

But understand more beauty lay
Beyond the colour and in the way
It didn’t flee when all seemed bleak
It found an un-tapped bravery steak.

How lovely such a dainty creature,
Has shown me thing, has been my teacher.
You see, the courage in its tiny wings
Proves freedom come from strength within.

Makes me think of my Kids....

Had a great week end At the V8's not much to say but check out the pics.

Jack was also the photographer in this one...

How good is This!

WOW

How Great Is This Weather!!!!

The Kids and I have been out and about fishing the Oceans and Rivers of Townsville......Haven't caught any fish...But....

Last Sunday I set up the kids rods, I whacked a small sinker and a red float onto Jacks and proceeded out to the wide open sapce of the back yard ;> and started his first ever rod casting lesson.

WELL...

I have created a monster...

Five minutes later and I get the " Dad I can do it myself...."

A week later I'm embarrassed to stand beside him as he puts my casting to shame....


This was this morning down at the local weir - walking distance from home.


I think Kate is going to be a Big Game Fish specialist with the little Rod Jig I made up for her chair



"Hey Kids want do you want to do today, Stay home and play the PlayStation...." "Nahh!!"

(Down the Strand with Jack's mate Keegan)



Keeg's Dad showing me how it's done - I can't cast a net to save myself....


How Good Is This!!!

The Show!

Just got back from the Townsville Show, Thanks to the Starlight Foundation.


What a great time we had!


The kids had their best show yet I think.

We went fairly early so they got the chance to get a good look at the livestock.

Had a good go in the rides.





Jack and Will had their first drives in a Dodge-em and they did really well.


And Show bags and a feed to boot.


I'd like to make a BIG THANK YOU to the

Starlight Foundation for making this all Possible.

Thanks

Please check out their website in my links, They do such good work!

Kate on Spotlight!

Kate's class was on spotlight today at assembly which means they get to stand up (most anyway) and present a story or act or something alike.




Kate's class has been writing a story about dinosaurs.

The first few students read a paragraph each then every other student spoke about their drawing of their dinosaur.



Kate used her Liberator 14 to talk about her dinosaur to the whole of the school.

She did very well and was very chuffed with herself.

Let There Be Light!

These are my lights for My (Kate's) Delica




Fitted them today!

EDIT - Had to remove them again as they are not legal in Aust......Oh Well!!

Hello To Nathan!

Hello!
Hope all is well and not to boring in East Timor!
