Remembering Old Nana

On Thur 30th Oct we decided to do something a little different. We took Old Pa to Naracoorte to have lunch with Aunty Cathy & Ash. On the way we visited the cemetery to put some roses on Old Nana's grave and to check out all the other relatives. It was a bit of a history lesson for Will. He was facinated by all the different names. Uncle Bing came with us and we were able to help him celebrate his birthday which was on Wed.

We had a  lovely meal and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine in their outdoor area.

The Old Farm at Miga Lake

A couple of weekends ago we did a field trip with Aunty Ruby & Family to visit the old Heinrich Farm at Miga Lake (Vic).  Grandpa, Nana Heinrich, Uncle Wally & Aunty Jean ran a Dairy on the farm. It was a good day with lots of laughs and with the grand kids remembering many happy family times and gatherings as they walked around the yard and in the old house. Thanks to Aunty Ruby and her family for a wonderful & fun filled day.
