Goodbye Pa - We'll see you soon

Pa has decided that his leg is now well enough to return home. After three months in Perth, we bet he's glad to get home again. His leg is definitely on the mend, we'll see how much longer it takes to heal totally. The girls are missing you already Pa. Dad is missing your company already. We know we'll see you soon.

Another weekend gone. Mum rolled her ankle playing netball on Friday night, it seems okay just a little purple and a lot sore. Dad went to see the Eagles play on Saturday and then the girls came over for a sleep over. Brooke and Dad were going to take Pa to the airport but Dad's car had a flat battery so he had to catch a taxi.

We all went and watched Courtney play soccer this morning and this afternoon, Courtney and Dad worked on fixing the car battery. Courtney now knows about as much mechanical information as her father. Perhaps we'll leave the lessons up to Grandad from here on.

The girls learnt a new card game today - Fish. We've only played one game - Brooke won. We prefer to play it when you can see everyone else's cards.

A big "HI" to our friend Cassie who won a spelling contest at school this week. Cassie beat a whole lot of other kids from all across the top end of Australia to get into the finals - Good Luck !
