Back to work 2012 and the End of the World

Happy New Year All :

Its back to work but I think its a good thing to remember what a big year 2011 was.

1. Karl Jnr Started School

2. We bought a small house in the burbs

3. And my 800cc Matiz is still going albeit 5th gear not operating :)

We have grown loads of Veggies in the garden and we are slowly getting used to and enjoying the 80's while the apocalypse approaches.

Merry Grinchmas

It's that time of year again.....and Father Christmas was very generous in leaving us way too many LARGE toys, but at least our assembly skills are improving....next year, no tools required, please!

Mom and Dad have taken some time off over Christmas and the New Year and, if the weather holds, it's beach time, wineries and putt putt!

Presents in action

Crazy November

Late October was the first real Halloween the boys did together. We went trick or treating and got loads of goodies.

Marti turned 4 on the 11th Nov, and the day after we jetted off to the Gold Coast for a weeks holiday. We stayed at a VERY family orientated hotel, Paradise Resort, things we do for our kids........ It has the largest resort based water park in the Southern Hemishpere. There was never a dull moment, we went to Sea World, Movie World, Tropical Fruit World and even managed to get some fishing in. See you next year Queensland:)

Very Disjointed Video (we just did too much)

Tick Tock – The clocks go back

Wow! It always gets me….. It’s so light now into the evenings, perfect for a BBQ. Today was crazy with a trip to the Melbourne Show. The boys were spoilt with show bags and rides.

Spring has sprung after some torrential downpours that keeps filling the dams (irritating the hell out of the global warming nutters out there) and now we are on the home stretch to Christmas…already?

Karl Jnr turned 6………………… Would you believe it? What a six years it must have been for that chap who takes it in all in his stride. It really annoys me he can read, count, add and subtract while back in the late 70’s when I started school I had only been capable of a scrawl, how times have changed.

Disco’s, photo-shoots and total irritation

The end of September is here and Birthdays abound until Christmas. This month has been manic….. I played Mt Martha golf course with the family in tow and as a reward we went to one of our favourite wine farms for lunch. (are you 4sq'ed ?)

School Disco: Un-bloody-believable (please watch the video) – Bring us in, screw us by making us buy flashing things and then assault my ears with the Macarena . (I made sure I told my kids that only really sad people like this type of music and that they normally hang out at social clubs and have very low self-esteem)

This Saturday we did a photo-shoot on the beach – Fook me man, it was 12 degrees in the morning and I had to act happy and run up and down the beach (avoiding heart attack) looking happy while my shoes filled up with sand. Screw that! (did I mention I mow)

(checks Biorhythms) – October will be better.
