Alfred Nicholas Memorial Gardens at Burnham Estate

Lunch at the Piggery, lovely food but Shannon Bennetts hospitality never fails to unimpress! The gardens next door though were stunning. Kids even managed to catch a half a dozen tadpoles ... yep we are now harvesting frogs!

Lucy call of the week

“Aunty Gabe, when you were young did you like to play with your nipples?”

Ha ha ha, no idea where that came from!

Happy 12th birthday baby girl!!

Happy birthday to our beautiful sweet girl. 12 years have gone so fast but also bought us such an amazing little lady. Because that’s what you are becoming. You are definitely shifting from child to teen right in front of our eyes and we couldn’t be darn prouder! You are just the best kid Hol and we love you so much. You really are a strong person with great moral judgement. You are kind and funny and love to be with us all, please don’t change that part! I know the next few years can be curly coming into teens but I think we have got this together my girl, we are a good team and good talkers. You make dad and I proud everyday, from the way you looked after Kove and Acer at Bonnie Doon to volunteering your time and looking after the preps at netsetgo each week to the way you persevered and took out House Captain with a landslide vote! 

We think you are just great and have so much to offer this big wide world. I still remember the moment you were born and being so overjoyed with happiness that I cried and couldn’t stop smiling. You were pure joy and still are. Remember when life gets hectic and we are all being pulled in different directions that you are an awesome person and can do anything you put your mind too and Dad and I are ALWAYS here for you and have your back.

Happy 12th birthday beautiful, I love you to the moon and Back a zillion times and then some more. 

Have the best last year as a non teen!!!!!
