Here we go again...

Hi Everyone,

Its Ewan today, just giving you a quick update on life here in sunny Brisbane.

Last week we went to the beach on the Gold Coast with Mummy for a few days whilst Daddy had to go to work. It was a bit windy some days but we still managed to have a great time. Our cousins were there for the week so we thought it would be nice to go for a few days too.



The summer holidays have officially finished this week and its back to school for Alastair and Gracie and I have started at a new Kindy out at Mummy's work at the University. I told her I was pretty smart but still perhaps a little young to go to Uni just yet. Here are some pics of us just before we all left on Monday.



Alastair and Daddy have been doing a lot of running recently. They do Parkrun every week, which is a 5km race. Alastair has been doing really well. He has won his age group (11-14) for the past 2 weeks and he is only 11!!!!!! He also got a personal best time last week by nearly 2 minutes so he is really pleased with that. It really hot here just now so just imagine how fast he can go in winter when its a little cooler!



Ok, thats it from me for now. We will be back in touch soon.

Ewie.

Fathers Day and Running FAST!

Image
Hey everyone - its Gracie here. Just a quick post to give you update of the last few days. Sunday was pretty exciting....It was Fathers Day here in Oz. Daddy was sooooo lucky. We got him all sorts of exciting gifts like socks and key-rings and chocolates and we all had pancakes for breakfast! In the afternoon we all went to Wellington Point beach for a walk and had ice cream. Life really doesn't get any better! I think Daddy was particularly pleased with this fathers day as he needed cheering up. He's been really grumpy recently as he is unable to run. He has a knee injury apparently so is having a few weeks off to recover. We all cant wait for him to start running again so we can get some peace! Its a normal school week this week (boooooooo) but today we had cross-country running. I came 12th and I am going to leave Alastair to tell you about his race...... Hi, Ally-Boo here. Yes, I had my cross country running race today too. I have been doing a fair bit of runni...

news update for this week

Hello, Now I have no idea why the blog machine has put the pictures in this order as it is not what I asked it to do so you'll have to work around the pictures with commentary. Lately I have been "helping" dad remove the wallpaper from the walls of the new house. I think I am actually really good at this and may pursue this as a career. It will be a lot better when I grow a bit and can reach the bits at the top of the walls. Yesterday we went to Redcliffe to see Ann, Peter and cook and book as daddy calls them. We went swimming in the sea and at their pool and mummy managed to get herself burnt. I was fine - as you can see I had my french foreign legion hat on. I have recently moved from the cot into the big boys bed and so we had the ceremonial throwing out of the cot mattress this week - I could resist one more lie down on it though - just for old times sake. The most exciting news is that we have booked our flights to scotland for may next year. Daddy tells me it wil...

Happy New Year to one and all.

Hello everybody and Happy New Year to you all. We have recently returned from our epic trip up north to Townsville where Mummys sister and family live. It took 2 full days to drive there and daddy cannot understand how you can drive for a solid 2 days and still be in the same State you were in when you started (i.e. Queensland). We camped one night at the town of 1770 which is apprently the first place that Captain Cook came ashore in Queensland. That night we went hunting for crabs and we found hundreds of them but one bit my foot. When we got to Townsville it rained - A LOT. In fact new years eve was the wettest ever 24 hours in Townsville since records began. So me and my cousin Kate did a bit of singing and also went bowling which was good fun. We also went to the North Qld museum which was brill and I managed to get mummys head on a platter. Anyway, I will try and get a video on here for you soon so you can hear my wonderful singing. Bye for now Boo
