November Birthdays

 Mama hitched a ride with Laura, Steve and kids and off we went on another roadie up to Relle's for the all important birthdays and to have lots of fun. Every day there was something different to do to keep us all occupied and well entertained.

We visited Jelly Bean Pools for a swim. A very lovely spot.

 Onto the bigger rocks...............Can't stop these two

 Sami took some convincing but not too much for Steve to have a go

Later on Relle had a birthday dinner for the girls with Aunty Ruth and Uncle Bill, Lucho and Jill. 

 The cake was .......decorate your own. A great way to out source the job AND the kids had fun!

Our next adventure was off to a place Sami found that had all the equipment of the Ninja Warrior Show. It looked like hard work!

On the Monday the girls went off to school and Lou and Steve went off into Sydney for a night away and to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge and we took the kids shopping and then off for a swim.

 After school it was time for Mama to give her and Pa's gift. The girls wanted their ears pierced. So off we all trekked to watch the girls go through the process of getting a hole punched into their ears.

On our last night we all went out for Dinner to celebrate Steve's 40th Birthday

 A beautiful brownie cake and the birthday song from the staff made his night.

On our way back home we called in to Echuca to help another young lady celebrate her Birthday

Early November the builder at Kingston started on the Beach house renovations. Lucky we have Aunty Cathy down near by. She was able to tell us what was happening and  Mama just had to make a trip down to have a look and catch up with the Carters.

Kaniva Show

 The Kaniva Show was held on 12th Oct and the grandies were staying over so we decided to go along and have a look. We hadn't been to the show for many years and we found it was very interesting with lots of displays, tractor pull, pet pavilion, quick shear, dunny derby, sheep races and lots more to enjoy. Not many side shows to spend our money on but the kids did enjoy the trampolines.

Rory taking her turn and having fun

 

 Lucy's turn 

 

 Jack getting more adventurous and doing some tumbling

 

 Will tried to do some tumbling but couldn't quite get the full turn over
