Springtime in Germany, I mean Austr(al)ia.

Its days like these that make you realise why you move to Australia. Its just hit September and the mercury is above 20 and the boys are playing in the sea and the BBQ (a new one as it's a throw away world and nothing lasts) is feeding the hoards.

Today we went to Port Melbourne to play footy on the beach and the boys decided it was a good idea to go in with their clothes (and NEW shoes). Those soon came off, as well as their trousers and they had a fun time collecting rocks and skimming the water with shells and stones.

As with all things Australia, it was then back home to relax (and study) and to cook some snags on the BBQ.

Last Day of Winter

Why have I been so quite..................? well, the truth is that we've been so busy. I'm currently studding and with the boys football consuming my life (I'm the damn manager) I have little time for anything else. Work is good and weekends fly buy before you know it. The house is getting ready for Grans arrival in September and we've booked a few days off. To give you an idea of how full things are, on Saturday it was Carton vs Essendon at the MCG with Sunday morning taken up by the Caribbean market where the boys played in the sun and rode a mechanical bull.

Skater Boys (in training)

Skater boys...um, not quite but I like the silent understanding of who is next when there are a few skaters around....looks like oldest to youngest, but with Martin as gang leader, giving his nod of approval as the skaters descend:) Very cute to watch. It's hot and thirsty work, but with Slushies afterwards, what a rush!



Tricks are us - NOT

Last month of Summer (adjusted)

Wow, our best catch ever!
The weather was perfect, beautiful clear water with beautiful tasty fish, and Karli caught most of them, Flathead, Bream and Australian Salmon, a very tasty bunch. I had to stop and think a few times as it felt like I was away on some Caribbean island...what crystal clear water, a perfect day:)
