My Birthday


Joe and I had a lovely night out in the City for my birthday. We went to a restaurant called Jessica's, a seafood place. It was lovely and nice to get outjust the two of us. I ended up buying a new dress and shoes. I was fed up wearing the same clothes, still waiting on our stuff to arrive.

Got lots of cards from home, it was good to hear from everyone. Got gift vouchers for one of the local shopping centres, perfume, and slippers. Had a lovely day. Posted by Picasa

Murray's In Oz

Well our furniture might be in Australia but it is still not in our house yet!! Apparently customs have done their bit, found my wine, and were going to charge us a brokers fee to evaluate it and then charge us duty on his evaluation, told them just to confiscate it, It was not worth that much or the further delay. Now it has to go to quarantine so hopefully we should have it early next week. Yippee xmas come early!!!

Not much else going on. Joe and I had a night out last Saturday. The kids went for a sleepover at our old neighbours from Craigie. The wee girl Rebekah is in Ryans class at school and her wee brother Shaun is just a bit older that Liam. They had a great time and Joe and I had a good night to. We met a guy from Joe's work and his wife along with another couple and went for a meal in South Perth. Then back to there apartment (well seen no kids) for a coffee.

Things starting to get xmasy over here. Seems really weird when the weather is hotting up. Ryan is doing a school show and is a xmas tree. We are going to friends, Arlene and Iain for xmas day. BBQ on the beach. What else!! Going to Perth Zoo for hogmany. The animals are allowed up till 7pm and then their is family entertainment with a countdown and firewords about 9.30ish. I guess the kids don't know what time it is and a few of our friends are going to, so it should hopefuly be a good night.

Going out next Saturday for my birthday. Somewhere in the city, Joe has booked it. No sleepover this time for the kids, just a babysitter.

Going to the Red Bull Air Race on the Sunday. Lots of stunt planes flying along the river. Looks really good on the ads. I think the kids will enjoy it.

Well I think that is you up to date. I will let you know how all these things go and post the photos to go with them.

Furniture in Australia! Yipee

Well it is finally here, well at least in the same country as us.

Hopefully we should now have our own stuff within the next couple of weeks.

Next we will be complaining the house is not big enough!!!

Budding Rock Stars!!



Meet our budding rock stars. Poor kids, they have no toys and are reduced to improvising with the tennis racket and empty boxes. Never mind at least they are using there imagination!! Posted by Picasa
