Phew!!! It's going to be one of those "
bitsa" blog entries...You know...
Bitsa this,
bitsa that! :)
I guess I should start off with the Easter long weekend and our camping trip. It was so nice to get away for a while. Even though the roads were busy and the camp ground packed to the rafters, we all really had a great time. (Excluding the part where my niece was taken to hospital due to an asthma attack.. ) We went with our usual camping family plus Mum, Dad and my two nieces, Simone and Hayley.

This cheeky boy was accommodating and stayed relatively immobile in his portable cot, but I can now confirm, since being home, he has been all go, go, go with his crawling!!! (note to self: 9 months to the day he was born).
We found a beautiful place to camp near
Imbil, along the river, under this massive tree.

Ten of them being very active and 1 trying to be!! We went kayaking, swimming and on bush walks. Saw an eel, some cows and plenty of butterflies! We even went to the local markets.

So that was
our Easter break. Since then, we have been enjoying the company of Nanny, Grandad Jim and the girls. School holidays have been more running around and playing with the cousins than anything really constructive, but the kids love that!
And there is one final piece of news. I have made it into the top 15 shortlist for the Kim Archer @home support team. The second round finishes next Friday, so I have some work cut out for me to create three amazing projects. And they better be amazing because there is some serious talent in that shortlist... oh, and little ole me! :)
