More sunny days!

Another week and time is flying by and we have started to think of home!  Our time is so special here, spending time with our wonderful family.  Bonnie enjoys the routine of the beach in the morning and then the afternoon is spent following Paige around.  She shares tea parties with Paige and her friends and is often sitting amongst them with her own tea cup to drink out of!

Ben returns to University next week for the 2nd semester.  He has done brilliantly in his exams and is already started reading his text books in preparation for his new units.  We had a celebration lunch last Wednesday at Fish on Parkyn, a beautiful restaurant in Mooloolaba.  A very delicious way to spend the day!

Paige, reading the menu and deciding on fish and chips for her meal!

Beautiful photo of our very special family!

Entree share platter, how delicious!

Ross' seafood chowder, was it as good as the chowder at the Drunken Admiral in Hobart?

It was yummy, loaded with lots of fresh seafood.

Ross' whole snapper, what a handsome looking character!

Not much left of him now - he has seen better days!

Room for dessert! Pomegranates, brandy basket and semi-freddo!

Sienna's first time in the high chair that belonged to my Dad when he was a baby!  She loves her food and looks forward to her yummy fruit and vegetables.

Paige is a beautiful artist, a morning spent in the caravan drawing a bright red spider, with lots of legs!

Have had latex overlays made for the caravan and picked them up on Thursday, we are sleeping much better, and without the old stiff bones to contend with when we wake up!

Ben and Ross have done all the running repairs on the van and all we have to do now is to take it in for it's service before we head home.  We are leaving Ben and Natalie's on the August 3, down to the Coromal Dealership in Brisbane, to drop off the caravan for the service while catching up with Ross' brother and Sheryl before we head west.  At this stage we are heading towards Kingaroy, Dalby, Mitchell and then south to Lightening Ridge.  However, word from home doesn't entice us to return with such cold weather Melbourne is experiencing!
