Hometown Visitors

 Sometimes you have to go to the other side of the world to see relatives/friends who live in the same home town. Friends/relatives, Ken and Deb Karius, happened to be in a neighbouring suburb, 10 minutes from us. They came over for a visit and stayed for supper. We had a great day exchanging stories!

Friends of Catlin and Jess, Chris and Shan and their little guy, Reuben, were also in on the afternoon and supper fun! They also brought a delicious meal!!

Graduation Day!!

 Wyatt is growing up! He had his first graduation celebration from Tall Tree which is the daycare he and his brother go to. He just finished a Kindy program that ran 3 days a week, and on February 3, Wyatt will start Pre Primary, which is equivalent to our Kindergarten, and runs 5 days a week, 9am to 3pm. Big changes are entering his life, and we are all so excited for him!

A friend of Catlin and Jess's was invited for Christmas. Shana and Chris's adorable son Reuben shared in the Christmas meal. Shana's husband, Chris, was unable to come because of work. Catlin met Chris, who is Canadian, through rec hockey in Perth. They have been good friends for many years.


Wanaroo Botanical Gardens

We went to a Christmas light display at Wanaroo Botanica Gardens that also has a mini golf course, restaurants, adult beverages, and icecream. We met some friends of Jess and Catlin's there who also have children. The kids had a blast chasing frogs, exploring the bushes, eating, taking in the lights and taking part in a game of Duck Duck Goose. Beautiful evening!
