We wished Leah could have been with us but we are so happy for her. She gave birth to a healthy little boy the very next day!

Catching up with Friends

HURRICANES ANYONE???!!! Wish we had more photos but the others didnt turn out well. We'll just have to do it again!

ANNIVERSARY #6

So our anniversary was a few days after Don got back from his deployment. We woke up on the Friday morning and I said to him... "pack your bags, were going away for the weekend"!

We stayed at Pacific Palms, Boomerang Beach. About a 2 1/2 hour drive north of Sydney. We have never been there and it was stunning. Our resort was 30metres from the beach, we relaxed the whole weekend taking in the views and soaking in the sun! I so want to go back!
While Don worked out on the beach I took photos.
DELICIOUS!!!
Our great, fully equipped apartment.
6 years... WOW. It has gone so fast. Before we know it, it will be 10! Is it too early to start planning?

A quick update on the last 3 months...

I cant believe its been months since I've blogged and in that time so much has happened... We have been so busy lately and I'm sure it wont stop till after Christmas! Enjoy...

So Don left for his first deployment to Papua New Guinea for 2 months. So with Don away I kept myself busy...

First up Marley & I took a holiday in Brisbane, visiting Matt, Jade & Pacey. We had such a blast, they really spoilt us and cant wait to visit again...
Out to lunch and a movie just the girls, matt had to work.
Fun in the park at Southbank.
Dreamworld... Oh my gosh!!! I used to love roller coasters and rides but something happens as you get older, check out my face!
We also caught up with the Harts & Owens. Thank you Matt, Jade and Pacey, we had lots and lots of fun!!!

Next up Marleys 21st / Mission Farwell... what a blast! I think the pictures speak for themselves!
So funny story... We had a garage sale the day of Marleys party. Dad says he's off to find a costume and returns a little while later empty handed... or so we thought!
It was a Karaoke party, Japanese themed as thats where Marley was called to serve.
