November is nearly over...a month of exams for my youngest, and soon to come prize giving and formal dinner, the two eldest far from home in the USA and Adelaide and then in Melbourne for the RACE and for my son,18th birthdays,year 12 dinners and schoolies .....a busy time for family and much toing and froing as a result......I have been feeling more like me and picking up the work pace and trying to catch up on many things that have slipped over the winter of my recluse and illness......
Hubby gets busier at his workplace each day as more tourists creep into town and days get longer and hotter.....
Its feeling like summer and Christmas is almost in view!!
Where did the year go????
Following are some pics of what is soon to be the year that has been......
It begins with Sammi Dog's first birthday....
Hubby and I on a needed break for my 50th birthday, remebering what it was like to complete our sentences and yes even our conversations........
Dian's 18th birthday cake, one nice big wave, what he's always searching for...... and the surf club house full of the winter floods and wild surf...a little too inside the club for comfort.....
hubby doing what he likes best...
Miss nearly independent graduating from Uni........
A little Michigan country........miss Independents most AWESOME...time in the USA
Rainbows....in life, if we look there are always some rainbows and hard though this year has been yes this is proof they did exist....do exist in fact.....
enthusiastic spa babies....worthy of mention in the year's memories because enthusiasm is always an enviable emotion!!!!!
And humour.....we were all in fits of giggles over some of the names we found on our forays away...and this is just a taste....along with grassy knob...
Grassy head on the Scott's head circuit, long board comps.......
Handsom son about to do the formal dinner.....
a little bit of Adelaide...pigs and camels.....hmmmmm...and then of course there are those moments where camera was not at the ready and where memory must live on in mind alone...like the day our youngest started at her new school, hubby sat and painted with his mum, Son got his Green P's....puppy discovered he liked dancing on two legs for 5 minutes at a time.....Youngest spray painted her surf board...I sang the national anthem at a flag raising for Australia day...( not sure about embarrasement or pride...), Miss nearly independent arrived back from South Aussie and we all celebrated with a bbq, Miss Independent came home from USA with hershey choclates ( the best pics would have been the screwed up noses because no, they do not taste like cadbury's!),..and there are so many more......
Miss nearly independent's Uni Graduation celebration...and The Girls at the THE RACE...Its been a full year..they always are....and I am looking forward to an even more amazing 2010.
