Back to School

The girls went back to school today and they were both wound up like little tops. Very excited. The girls are both happy with their teachers. Brooke has the same preschool teacher that Courtney had when she was there. Courtney has a new teacher but she tells us that she is very nice.

Brooke announced that school "wasn't very hard at all".

Brooke's teacher is taking her on a bus... but she can't remember why, where to or when. She is very excited.

Courtney is happy becuase her new teacher is going to give her three gold stars - just for filling in all the permission slips.

This weekend

This week the girls got to see McNaught's Comet in the evening sky over Perth. It was very impressve, a once in a life time event as this comet will never return to be seen from Earth again.



The girls had abusy day today. This morning we went to the Jones' farm where the girls got to see chickens, sheep, a horse and (best of all) three ponies. Both the girls had a bare back ride on one of the ponies. They didn't want to go home but they had to so they could attend a wedding this afternoon.



In other news, the girls have signed the inside of Dad's latest guitar.

Trip to Geraldton

Mum, Dad and the girls have not long returned from Geraldton. We had a great time visiting Rob, Ned and the kids. The girls loved the house with stairs and there was lots of games to play. We also went to the museum where the kids ran around madly with their assignments. We don't think that they actually saw anything other than the set task.

Woof Woof takes a bath

Today Woof Woof and Jolly bear took a bath. To be honest, Woof Woof was a little on the nose and needed a good wash. The girls filled the sink with warm water and added a little fabric softner, so as to give their best friends a bath.



Check out the colour of that water...

Happy Feet

The girls have been so very good lately that Dad treated them to a visit to the cinemas to watch Happy Feet. It was amazing to see Brooke laugh through the scary bits.
