Drawing Time

Birthday times seem to be coming around quickly and after asking the girls what they might like for their upcoming birthdays, this is a gift Maisie got last year, and it has been a winner and continues to be used daily by all three of the girls (and us).

thats what Tally said.

Cade: “Tally, do you remember what happened in last nights story?”
Tally: “They threw him in the big hole”
Cade: “yeah, Josephs brothers threw him into the well. What happened after that?”
Tally: “I dont know, I wasnt listening, I was being silly.”

Pizza Dudes

To assist in trying to get Maisie to re like pizza (she had it once about 2 years ago and was sick, and hasnt eaten it since), I decided to make some home made ones tonight. We chopped everything up and then the girls put what THEY wanted onto their own pizzas.

They really didnt eat very much of them – but it was fun anyway.

John, Cade, Stuart, Lincoln & Hannah all raced in the Nail Can Hill run last weekend.

Nailing the Nail Can Hill

The race is 11.3 kms up and over Nail Can Hill and finishes over at Bonnie Doon Oval in West Albury.

Funny thing is that the photo represents the order in which they finished the race!

John, 47:54 mins
Cade, 48:55 mins
Stuart & Lincoln 65:09 mins
Hannah 77:31 mins
