Jet ski fun...{October}

We were so lucky to have our friend Mick invite us for a ride on his new Jet ski!  The kids thought it was awesome and I somehow even got roped in to having a try. (Because we "try new things" the kids told me).

























So much fun.  Thanks Mick!

Birthday at the block...{October}

We have two family birthday celebrations a year.  One at the end of March for Jayden, Michael and Dylan's Birthday and one at the end of October for Louis and Ethan's Birthday.  (Mine is in May and the new tradition seems to be to travel down to Melbourne to celebrate).

So, here are some photos from our latest celebration at the end of October.  I'm realising it can be hard to capture all the photos that I would like as well as host this is what I managed to capture...

We had a very relaxed afternoon with water balloons, totem tennis, lots of chatting and some good food.





My dad and Michael's Dad...


 The man behind our house build..we couldn't do it without him!

 
  Love that happy face...


The boys eyes lit up as my sister arrived with a soccer table!  Funnily enough, we had bought that for her son when he was young and now the boys get to play with it...


Love this photo...the boys absolutely love having their family around! 


I thought a 3 legged race would be fun...it took a bit of convincing but we ended up with quite a few people having a go.  Our trick was to have everyone else go with the kids! Haha.  


Ready...


set, GO! 


This was the highlight of our sporting career...


We won!  


What a team!  Sometimes it can feel like we clash on everything but it's nice to know we can come together and win a 3 legged race! 


Time for a rest...


I love this photo of our nephew Luke and his girlfriend...


Our niece Kelly...


Oh man what a spunky little monkey...


Louis concentrating on his bubble blowing...love this big boy of mine...


We had a beautiful sunset...



 Pa enjoying the view...



Another great celebration with family and friends...so thankful!
