Ups-A-Daisy

Or maybe this is Ted.

 We will find out in October when we become grand-parents again.

We are sure Chris and Alice will be wonderful parents to the lucky child :-)

Flood

Recent torrential rains have brought the highest river levels for many years and minor flooding in Launceston

Happy Jack Day

Now we are se7en.

A great treasure hunt was enjoyed by Jack and some friends.

Excellent organising by Liz as usual.

Mountain top

I try and get to the top of Cradle Mountain most years,
and if you pick the right day it is magnificent.

This was a good year :-)

Soccer is the new football !

Jack is now playing soccer on (some very cold) Saturday mornings at Bellerive.

The team is slowly coming together and many grandparents are there to cheer them on. . . .

Campervan Project

Dave has bought an old (1986) 4wd campervan.

Currently a bit of a garage project,
but hopefully will provide a bit of amusement and
some interesting road trips in the future.

Fishy Business

Spending Easter at the shack at Eagle Hawk Neck; we saw this magnificent Swordfish landed.  We can't claim any credit for the catch, but we did get a decent sample to cook up for tea :-)

She's leaving Home

Sarah has now moved into a flat in Battery Point in Hobart.

Walking distance to the town centre and local pubs etc :-)

Birthday Girl

48 and holding . . . .

Sibling surprise

In a lovely surprise we were treated to Chris (down for a wedding) and Cath who sneaked back home for a couple of weeks.

Cath also joined us for a few days camping at Coles bay. Some things are always worth doing with the next generation with Liz, Rob, Jack and Max as well.
