Watch out school, here we come!

After 6 weeks of holidays (that went really fast!) it was time for school to start…Harrison was less than enthused about going into Grade 4 but Will was (and still is) extremely excited about starting Prep!

   

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!

We spent Australia Day with Auntie Lauren and Uncle Bradley at our local park at a function organised by the neighbourhood watch where we live.  It was great, thong throwing comps, sack races, Aussie trivia, jumping castle and yummy food and drinks! As you will see from the pics below, it was all a bit too much fun for Sam!

 

Slip, Sliding Away!

One of the boys Chrissie presents was a Slip and Slide (thanks Jen).  They have had a ton of fun on it in this really hot weather!

Harrison is doing really well at his riding lessons – he is now doing a rising trot.  Will and Sam came along to see the horses and we were really pleased that Will was able to interact with them without any reactions!

3 and 33!

Sammy and Daddy had a birthday on January 8th, Sam turned 3 and Daddy turned 33. 

Sam had some presents to open in the morning, Daddy had already left for training so we saved some for later…

When Daddy came home we went to Montezuma’s for dinner.

 

 

When we got home from dinner it was time to open some more presents…

The next day we headed off to Seaworld for Sam and Daddy’s big birthday present – a helicopter ride!  For anyone who does not know Sam is obsessed with helicopters so this was a dream come true for him.  He got a DVD of the ride and has watched it 200 times already! Sam looked so cute in his headphones!

After the helicopter ride we fed the sting rays and went on some rides.

 

The next day we went to Toscani’s for a family lunch (yes it was a 3 day birthday celebration!).  Mummy and Daddy made the dragon cake that Sam had chosen and we had a yummy lunch.
