BBQ table

Sunday 23 December
 
We are cleaning and re oiling the BBQ furniture
 
 sanding



 water pressure clean up

 oiling
 When Claude did another coat of oil
 I went inside and made some teddy sleighs
Thanks to Tharyn for the idea she posted
on facebook 
more Christmas goodies.
It is amazing....
if it does not look great...wrap it in cellophane
and it looks good.
Mostly Christmas cellophane with picture and message all over.


lunch at the beach

Friday 21 December
 
 
After Shane and his family departed
we pack up some sandwich and went
for a nice bush walk to a beach
past Forty Baskets beach.
It is very secluded. It use to be a nuddist beach!!
 
 we had bought 2 tiny bottles of Chardenay
 
I wanted a better photo of the parachute but
could not get it


Next day

Friday 21 December
 
 
 Shane bought this outfit in China
 the back is all pleated and is longer
 I had ask Amelia to turn around to take the photo
so Joshua came to turn around too!!!
 a cuddle for Mummy
 
Oh Shane is up, not to much of a headache!!!


Time for bed

Thursday 20 December
 
 
Shane and Jo are going to Shane's
work Christmas Party.
They dropped the kids in late afternoon
got ready and went.
 
The kids and us had dinner and
then.....
 
 bathed and time for bed.
but first Amelia had to check on Claude mole...
 and Joshua too
Amelia has been facinated with it since she was tiny.
 

 Good night eveybody

 


Mall Walker Christmas breakfast

Thursday 20 December
 
 
Every Tuesday and Thursday a group
of us, about 40 meet at the Mall.
We walk all over the mall for 1 hour
with a couple of stops for stretching
and balancing (a must for old people)
We stat at 7.30 am before the mall get busy.
 
 Tricia, Rhian and Margot
Part of our table
 
 Liz, Becky (one of the instructor) and Alan
 Helen and Alan
 another table (we had 3 long tables)
 Pam and Tricia
 
We walk and had breakfast and by 9.30 were
ready to hit the shops before the crowd arrive.
A very good advantage being a Mall walker is
that we got (on those days) an all day parking
ticket for free.
